Great game of tennis
by David Coulthard on Jul 06, 2009 09:59 AM

Although the argument might continue for days, it was clearly a great match of tennis. I would not stress on any one player or the other, but the quality that was on disply was stupendous; never thought I would get to see such high quality stuff during this year's Wimbledon!
Both players had their chances and played to their full potential and well... somebody had to break at the end :)
However, I would give a slight edge to Roddick, whose server was never broken till the winning one!
Cheers to Federer and Roddick! Super game.

David

cliffhanger missed by the roddick

Roddick nearly outclassed great champion rogger federer, though rogger was not with his A game at centre court making so many unforced errors which we dont see quite often in his game. Roddick put his best foot forward in this game and i think he was the deserving player to win the title.

well any tennis player who has ever been

ranked in top 10 is a top plyr
tennis is the most competitive sport coz of its profile and coz its an individual sport
one feels sorry for andy roddick, he choked but played overall better than feddy
i can only say that one is lucky to have had feddy and laver
laver and fedex are champs
tennis has a different history
in the past-grand slams were not most important and hence plyrs like laver turned pro
one salutes laver and feddy
great champs.


we wud never know how great feddy is as he said himself

coz you cant compare opponents of the best players of their time and coz majors were not considered so important before
rod laver missed 100s of majors coz of turning pro and contracted pro and was not allowed to play
those days, all best plyrs turned pro
laver has won a stagerring 199 singles titles plus any no of doubles and mixed doubles
the great laver wud have won many more than his 11 singles majors
he missed 21 in a row and more just before sweeping all in 69 and after sweeping all in 62 when he use to win every match
he missed many in the 70s too
he was a true legend
people who saw him play at his peak or othrwise say its laver first and then daylight
he is someone with most kind and humble words
long live laver
the champion
likewise maragret court wud have won more than her record 24 singles majors anyway-shes the best ever
i dont read posts i dont reply to

Ofcouse Roger Federer is the greatest player of all time
by Girish Nachane on Jul 06, 2009 09:49 AM

I m big fan of him, he deserves that, there is no comparison with player like Roger. pete has taken 12 years to grab 14 titles our hero has taken only six years, No doubt about his performance he has excellency accuracy perfection style power what more u can expect from a human but every time he prooves himself, last year was difficult for him, but still he overcomes n proved that he deserves to be no. 1, My best wishes to roger and his wife, whatever happens in future dont know but he is no. 1 for me, wil be always

True Champion
by Rambabu on Jul 06, 2009 09:47 AM

Federer has all the ingredients what it really takes one to be a champion of the game. His composition, physical fitness levels, ability to withstand pressure and despair in the game. It is not with luck and chance alone did he win the 15 grand slam titles in his career. He is the living example of an icon of a game, a gem of a champion and an extra ordinary spirit of sportsmanship.

Federrer all the way
by satish ramanna on Jul 06, 2009 09:38 AM

Federer was destined to win and he deserved it a lot. I really like a RF/Nadal final, nevertheless match was equally exciting, thanks to Roddick
