Watching the Champion !!

One more Grand Slam final!! This time for a change a different opponent - Baghdatis, but result is the same. Roger Federer scripts one more famous Grand Slam victory to kiss the Australian open cup.

Well when you see him play....you might shake your head to sink in that it's a Grand Slam final. Looking at his visage, you may be tempted to think that probably you are more concerned than he himself. That's Federer for you. His strength is his character. You might very well argue for talent, grace, poise or elegance but I believe it's his toughness. The belief, that things can't go beyond his control - his control over the game and the opponent.

Spare a thought for the rivals - you try your best, play the best tennis in life, sweat, plead and reach the finals. There…. the "Saint" awaits. By the time you start realizing that the match is lost, you comprehend one more fact - That you are the latest one in the long queue of his worshippers!!

Congrats to Roger Federer on winning his seventh Grand Slam !!

In the press conf after the match, he expressed his disappointment of not winning the French title. He is saying he is preparing to bag all four for him. Lets wait and watch, the wonderful matches coming later this year. :D
