As the 00's wind down, all over the Internet people are compiling their "Best of the Decade" lists. Sports Illustrated is certainly not lagging behind in this and gives us a list of what they consider to be the 10 best tennis matches of the past decade. Even if you are not a big fan of tennis, just check out the videos for some tennis of the highest quality. You will not be disappointed.
Not surprisingly, Roger Federer figures prominently in that list, meriting as many as 5 mentions. Surprisingly, though, he was the winner on only one occasion, reaffirming the notion that to bring down Darth Federer players usually need to come up a very special effort to do so. GOAT status reconfirmed.
(By the way, even though the commentary is in French, check out #7 for a rare glimpse of Fabrice Santoro, whose nickname (The Magician) was well-earned.
