Not long ago critics felt that Federer was vulnerable, beatable and some had in fact written him off. Today, however the vintage champion returned. It took Federer less than 2 hours to close the match and take home 5th straight US open title (only person to win 5 straight US and Wimbledon).
I had waited all year long to see the familiar scene of Federer falling to his knees, screaming with joy, pitching forward and then rolling over to his back, covering his face with his hands. It is something I wish to see time and again till he retires.
Federer with 13 grand slams now finds himself just one behind of Pete Sampras who has 14. This was the 1st time in 5 years Federer was without a Grand Slam title this late in the year and it is immensely satisfying for me as a hardcore fan of his to see him back winning slams.
I wish next year would be different for Fedex. I wish he would win all the 4 slams next year and I would love to see him thrash Nadal in the French Open and get that crown which has been missing for 5 years now. That’s one winning moment / celebration that I would die to see.
Final Score: 6-2, 7-5, 6-2
