The Best of Times in Men's Tennis

Rafael Nadal (who is all of 20, and barely that) is in the midst of (by far) the longest clay court winning streak in the Open Era, and now Roger Federer (who is still just 24) is in the midst of the longest grass court winning streak in the Open Era. With his win today he's won 42 straight matches on grass, surpassing the mark set by Bjorn Borg from 1976-1981. Next up for Federer at Wimbledon is Tim Henman.
