In
what could be called neck-to-neck
finals between Roger Federer and Andy
Roddicks on Sunday, the Swiss finally
held the trophy after creating history
by breaking Pete Sampras’ record
of 14 Grand Slam titles. With this
Federer now has 15 Grand Slams to
his credit.
Federer took the match away from Roddick
5-7,7-6,7-6,3-6,16-14. This is the
sixth Grand Slam title that he has
won so far.
In an on court interview, Federer
said, “Andy I want to say you’re
going to come back and win one, I’m
sure. Today (Sunday) I was on the
lucky side. It feels funny to have
the trophy back. It feels great. It
was a crazy match, my head’s
still spinning. It’s an unbelievable
moment in my career.”
Federer won the French Open last month.
Roddick had won only one title so
far, the US Open in 2003. |
