2008 is not that bad after all

Roger Federer has displayed something that one could only dream of. His win against Andy Murray of Scotland in the US Open 2008 proved that he is still dominating the Tennis arena despite losing his No 1 throne.

The legendary Bjorn Borg once said that being no 1 is everything. The new legend Roger Federer disapproves this statement. His attitude and determination are tremendously superb. Even though, with 12 loses which include a bagel at Rolland Garros, a tennis coup d’état at SW19 (yes, it still haunts me) and heavy criticisms made on him throughout this year, yet he never mentally broke down. He is not burned out and there is still a lot of air in this guy!

In my opinion, whether he could break Sampras’s record of 14 Grand Slams is no more important. His record of successes proved that he is the greatest tennis player of all time. I would not go at length explaining on his records, like Federer, I do not need to prove anything.

I am extremely glad that the KING has returned. No one can tell for how long he will be around, for he like us is mortal. However, the forces he had created has reached the level of immortality. On a personel note, his triumphs remind me not to give up on my own personal quest.

Oh, by the way, Federer also won the Olympics Tennis Doubles. Regardless of whatever the event, a gold medal is a Gold Medal.
