#1 glorified with gold

today, rafael nadal is officially the world number 1. vamos mi rafalito! as he is joined by ana ivanovic of serbia atop the tennis rankings, the sight of the olympic gold medal dangling around his neck has validated, with definitive authority, his ascendancy in the sport in 2008.

the biggest weekend for tennis in olympics ended in big smiles and joy for all winners.
