The Greatest Ever



After sharing the top spot with Pete Sampras at 14 grand slams for a month, Roger Federer is now alone with 15. He is also back at number one, which Rafael Nadal took along with the Wimbledon crown last year.

The Wimbledon final last Sunday was incredible; the final set alone featured 30 games--four games more than two sets that went to tie-break combined. It was incredible because Andy Roddick produced the best match of his life--he was frankly the better guy on the day--and could have been on the brink of winning it. But it was even more incredible that Federer came back and stole it. The one time Federer was able to break the Roddick serve in more than four hours was at the very last second, which was also match point.

I couldn't be any happier these days.
