Order of play for day 2 at the US Open http://www.usopen.org/en_US/scores/schedule/index.html?promo=topnav

US OPEN IS COMING

So I am asking all of you guys who do you think will win - VOTE in my poll on this blog will it be Roger Federer again, can Rafael Nadal join Federer in winning all 4 Grand Slams. Or maybe Andy Murray, Andy Roddick, Del Potro,....

I am cheering for my favorite players David Ferrer and Juan Carlos Ferrero but I think Roger Federer was playing really good in Cincinnati so it can happen that this year Federer will be triumphant again.

IT IS A TENNIS WORLD!!!!!!

ROGER FEDERER WINS HIS FIFTH WIMBLEDON

With his 15th Slam Roger Federer became the greatest tennis player ever. It was one of the best final matches ever with Andy Roddick and Roger Federer challenging each other through the whole match.

It took Federer four hours and 16 minutes to creating a history. I enjoyed watching it and was almost wishing both of them could win. Andy was playing amazing and he took Roger to 16:14 in 5th set. But the 5th set was not the only battle, the whole match was really close and ended 5-7, 7-6 (8-6), 7-6 (7-5), 3-6 and 16-14 in 5th set.

The match was so close that everybody watching it was guessing which way it will go. Federer served over 50 aces and when his Championship point arrived he grabbed it and became the best tennis player ever. With this win he also became number 1 tennis player in the world again.

CONGRATULATION ROGGER FEDERER! YOU DESERVE IT!
