Roger makes history!

05.07.2009 | Tennis

In a dramatic encounter that lasted over four hours Roger made history today! He defeated Andy Roddick to land a record-breaking 15th Grand Slam title in a thrilling final in Wimbledon, winning 5-7 7-6 (8-6) 7-6 (7-5) 3-6 and 16-14.

His words after the amazing success were: "It's not one of those goals you set as a young boy. It feels amazing. I don't play tennis to break records, but this is a great one to have." Roger is the first tennis professional ever to have reached the mark of 15 Grand-Slam titles as he broke Pete Sampras' record. Pete followed the epic match in the

stadium today.

It was a hard piece of work for Roger as Andy Roddick pressured him with his strong serve. The two stretched the match all the way and played the longest set in tennis history! Roger was the happy winner today, with Andy surrendering a good loser.

And now Roger regains the world number 1 spot after his glorious victory - way to go!

fierté et respect sont mes sentiments permanents en vous suivant Roger Federer. Mérités, oh combien, sont ces victoires 2009 à RG et Wimbledon, à l'instar de toutes les autres. Retour au N°1 et bonheur en famille, que du bien et tout de bon !

Hello Fed fans!
I have come across speculation that Federer will not be playing in masters of Montreal and Cincinatti. The events are held after about one and half months from Wimbledon and there is so much time between the events and so much at stake I

Do you guys anybody know if we can read our comments posted last year ?

I mean do they (website management group) archived all these comments or will simply be deleted.

Actually, it would have been interesting to review previous post too.

Never feel bored of watching Roger's interviews, he is so sincere and humble when answers interviewees' questions, Just loving it. He too good to be human.
