    This really is a beautifully written piece on this years epic Wimbeldon final. It is long so if you dont have the time skip to the part where he actually starts writing about the match.

    When he chose to be a Fulham fan this is the type of writing I was hoping we'd get regarding our Whites. Maybe someday he'll get it.

    Ah.. indeed. A great example of how the great sportswriters used to do it. At least once a week, a column written as a chapter in a book.

    Interesting to note that some commenters, now that reader-response is relatively effortless, dont seem to be able to read it and get the point. Note the quibbling about him not going into the personalities of Sergio Garcia v Roddick.
