What could have been a better way to end the weekend than watching Roger Federer win the record-equalling 14th Grand Slam and that too with a tournament that had evaded him throughout his career?Though Roger was never near his best tennis in the final, it was enough to maul Soderling. The world number 23 played good tennis in the 2nd set (and also throughout the tournament) and took it to the tie-breaker, but that was not enough to stop the indomitable Swiss.
Fedex must thank Soderling for making his task easier as it was a final in Roland Garros sans Rafa. Nevertheless, he is one of the greatest (if not the greatest) and will remain so.
