Typical Federer 'serving for the match tightness'.

BUT HE GOT THROUGH.

Arguably the best player ever!

He's already crying. :lol

 

[agrajag]

BAM, there it is!

Federer: SAMPRAS, WANNA SEE WHAT THE BOTTOM OF MY SHOE LOOKS LIKE?!??

 

[Keen]

Congrats Fed!!!

Too bad Söderling didn't seem to be in it.

Kinda glad I had to listen to that first set on the radio :lol

 

[Dizzan]

I hope he can kick on from here and win a couple more majors before he retires.

 

[yacobod]

congrats to fed, has to be a great feeling to get the title that has long eluded him

 

[nny]

Federer: SAMPRAS, WANNA SEE WHAT THE BOTTOM OF MY SHOE LOOKS LIKE?!??

:lol <3

sorry Sampras ahah

 

[agrajag]

Haha, remember last-year's GAF? Federer should retire total, amirite?:lol

 

[Batongen]

Also, just to sound a little bitter, F U all Söderling haters, he may not showed up in the first set but he gave him a run in the last two and he clearly deserved to be in the final beating Nadal, Ferrer, Davydenko and Gonzales

 

[Peru]

Suckas said he should retire, but he's taken two of the last three grand slams ; ) Just focuses his energy on the big moments after becoming and old daddy (literally).

 

[PuppetSlave]

Good for federer!

Well, to bad for Söderling but I am pleased enough with how he has played in this tournament. Looking forward to watching his performance in future ones.

 

[Dizzan]

Also, just to sound a little bitter, F U all Söderling haters, he may not showed up in the first set but he gave him a run in the last two and he clearly deserved to be in the final beating Nadal, Ferrer, Davydenko and Gonzales

Now's not the time. Be gone!

 

[Peru]

Also, just to sound a little bitter, F U all Söderling haters, he may not showed up in the first set but he gave him a run in the last two and he clearly deserved to be in the final beating Nadal, Ferrer, Davydenko and Gonzales

His stats show a positive leaning on the winners / unforced ratio, so he should not be ashamed of his effort.

 

[jett]

Yay Federer, you finally did it. Next up: calendar year Grand Slam.

 

[agrajag]

Also, just to sound a little bitter, F U all Söderling haters, he may not showed up in the first set but he gave him a run in the last two and he clearly deserved to be in the final beating Nadal, Ferrer, Davydenko and Gonzales

He ran out of gas by the time he played Federer, imo. He definitely has shown he's not a fluke. He legitimately got to the final and beat some great players along the way. I see him becoming a major player now.

Is it wrong for me to want to be held in his wife's soft arms?

 

[Manics]

Hahahahahahababa!!! I DID IT!!! I'm the biggest sports jinx of all time. Federer's rapid decline started when I was cheering for him. I totally avoided the US Open last year and openly supported every other player in this tournament. (this is after watching this years Aussie).

Mission accomplished!!!

 

[nny]

Mirka's filming/taking photos of Roger with a cellphone...can't she afford a proper camera? :lol

 

[nny]

A very gracious speech by Söderling.

 

[MIMIC]

That TV dinner tray is the worst runner-up trophy ever

 

[agrajag]

That TV dinner tray is the worst runner-up trophy ever

I was just thinking that :lol

 

[Kitschkraft]

ESPN

:lol :lol :lol @ this trolling from ESPN.

Congrats Fed, you really might be the GOAT. I don't know enough about the sport to make that call, but I'm glad that I've grown up during your reign.

 

[agrajag]

"We were yokin'"

 

[Peru]

"And of course my lovely wife.... who's pregnant." :lol

 

[Iadien]

Federer is one emotional dude. Grats to him.

 

[Kitschkraft]

Was that Brunette Soderlings wife?

I wouldn't give a fuck about second place either!

 

[Batongen]

That TV dinner tray is the worst runner-up trophy ever

He could use it to eat Nadal's racket.

BAM! Did I just troll Nadal, well I think I did.

great speech by both Federer and Söderling.

 

[MIMIC]

God dammit, Fed. Speak in English

 

[nny]

"And of course my lovely wife.... who's pregnant." :lol

:lol and then he would add "I did it." and high-five Agassi?

 

[agrajag]

Was that Brunette Soderlings wife?

I wouldn't give a fuck about second place either!

Girlfriend. And yeah, she's gorgeous.

 

[bud]

nadal better be at wimbledon!

 

[CajoleJuice]

Yeah, Federer just cemented himself as the GOAT, even if he only just tied Sampras. Everything from here on out is just icing on the cake. It'll be interesting to see how much icing there will be.

 

[Kitschkraft]

The second place trophy MUST be a sign of the worldwide recession...cot damn.

 

[clemenx]

This is the dude that jumped on the court, what a douche, how is he allowed to enter in any sporting event?

Even if he doesn't win another grand slam, he is better than Sampras. Sampras has never even come close to winning the French Open. He made it to the semi's once.

That's what I was implying. Actually, I didn't even imply it. I said it. Maybe I should've added "in total GS wins" after "tied Sampras".

 

[Kitschkraft]

Depending on how bad this unknown Nadal injury is will be the determining factor in Fed-icing.

I mean shit...if guys like Murray and Jokavich keep proving that they won't step it up....dude can get to fucking twenty. I mean, thats assuming a GREAT ending to his career but between just the aussi, us, and wimby...if Nadal's playstyle has really worn him down, who can say?

More realistically? 18. And the difference between them is only 2 trophies...

Edit : Thinking on it, 20 sounds crazy but still, I see no reason not to pick him for at least the US open and he's still going to be dangerous everywhere else.
