I would like to congratulate everybody to be born in an era which will be known as the greatest in the world for sporting wonders.We are the people who are so lucky that we watched Sachin,Roger,pete sampras,ronaldinho,tiger woods and many other greats making history. I am thanking god for this. Really these are not just records for us, these people are those watching whom i have grown up. Yesterday match i would rather say that it was fed's bad luck that he could not play as good as Andy but still his below avg game is able to manage it for him.I saw him in Rolex ad and he was looking amazing.But i think in true sense modelling might be affecting his game. Although he is really a model having great looks, But i think he should wait for sometime to enter in modelling and should concentrate on tennis as nadal will be soon coming back and I want to see FEd defeating Nadal in the Frech Open finals 3-0.
ande was good, federer gone but in tie breaker that roddick lost his cool . just one point loss in second set cost him , and history also created by federer. federer won by opponents mistake , rather his game is not so good ,as a true champion. power and volly game of john macenroe was the best in any wimbledon final.1981
Rafael Nadal has been removed from the top spot by Federer. If Nadal fails to play very soon then even Murray, Roddick should be able to over-take him.
So Nadal fans pray for his fast recovery.... knees are definetly very delicate and pains a lot when tendonitis affects it.
it ws abt time roddick won!! federer has had his share of titles...now it ws roddick's time! stop bein selfish federer!! roddick-ur time will soon come!! JAI HO RODDICK!!

Well, said Roger is playing for Record. You should play Sports in a Sportive manner. Remember, he never allowed Nadal to Celebrate in the Aus Open, he was crying as if he lost everything in the World. How can we say he is a Champion.
And even in Yesterday match, he broken Roddick Serve only one, where as Andy broken his Serve twice (To me I see this way The Champion was Broken Twice, even then he won the match because of opp. mistake.)
Never ever call him as a True Champion.
But one thing is sure, Roger Time is over. Just watch Andy in US open he will definetly Kill Roger their in home, and it will not stop their it will continue.
Andy Roddick was playing much above his game and it gives an impression he played a better game (may be true!!) but one must remember that RF held on, inspite making so many unforced errors. Best of Roddick was'nt good enough for average game of RF.

it looked like a average game of RF becos roddick did not give him a chance to play. Roddick's serves were superb. many times RF got break point chance but he couldnt make it bcos of roddick's amazing serves.
Sports is really cruel, I am great fan of federer but after witnessing the Final roddick deserved to win this title this year but Federr is such a champion who wins even when he plays at around 80% .
The main reason why roddict played so well is he took the game to Federer,he was dominating the proceedings..
I never saw federer play below par in finals except those French finals..
Nadal..You cannot win matches with your legs and Knees and they will worn out but not the class federer posses...
In the final, Andy Roddick played better than Federer. The natural flow of RF was missing, I would say it was 80% of what he plays naturally, but still he managed to win by simply hanging around. One has to give credit to that. The same big-serving Roddick was nullified easily in the previous two wimbldon meetings of them. Even, RF defeted big-hitter Mark Philipposis in his first wimbledon win, who created a lot of wave in that year. RF has the ability to beat them in style but it was that kind of a day when everything was not with him. Roddick played very well but it's unfortunate for him that he is player of Roger Federe's era.
