The tournament began with the expectation for Rafa as world no.1. That was happened. And a record 4th title for Novak, that also happened.
Title for Djokovic was a huge relief for him, because he lost closely twice this year in Roland Garros and in US Open to Nadal. The doubt continued within himself whether he can be best enough to overcome Rafa's hurdle this year or in near future. Today this win after losing his World No.1 ranking will give a huge boost for the coming tournaments.
And Nadal also felt that he didn't play his BEST game today. Both players participating in Shanghai Rolex masters next week. Hope every player plays his best to win the match.
