OMG! Roger Federer just won US Open 2008 for the fifth consecutive year. Wow, he made the history too as the first man who won both Wimbledon and US Open for 5 consecutive years. Well, although not on the same year. He did not win Wimbledon this year. Federer played really well today against Murray with impressive score of 6-2, 7-5, 6-2.
In the third set, Federer was leading Murray by 5-0 but then Murray caught up till 2-5. That was when it got very interesting for me because Federer was already at championship point twice at advantage against Murray. Federer had the first championship point at advantage but then Murray fought back and they were at deuce again. That was one of the reason I hate deuce. You had to watch the score go back between advantage and deuce again. It could last for a very long time. Luckily, this was not the case. Federer got the advantage again and hence the championship point for the second time. There was quite a rally and Murray’s shot hit the net and Federer WON the US Open 2008. OMG! I was so happy at that time.
At last Federer won one grand slam this year after finishing in semi-final in Australian Open and runner-ups in both French Open and Wimbledon. Oh, the prize money was interesting. Murray won U$750.00 plus extra U$250.000 for winning in second place in the tournament series, so he won a total of U$1 million. Federer won the prize money of U$1.5 million plus the Lexus car. Man, I wonder how many cars he won from the grand slams.
All in all, Federer played really great and it was so impressive for me and everybody else too. But then now, I’ve got to shower now and go back to work. So post more things later…
