Roger Federer won the French open dismissing the challenge from Robin Soderling in straight sets 6-1, 7-6, 6-4.

He became only the sixth man to achieve the career Grand Slam and equaled Pete Sampras’ record of 14 majors.

I am as good a Roger fan as you will get. I had a one of the best Sundays of my life. Sipping chilled beer and watching the best tennis player win record equaling grand slam is not on occasion that passes by every other Sunday.

With some hot Pakoda’s courtesy my lovely wife, it was getting better with each game. I am superstitious when it comes to Fedex. I stood whole of the third set coz, when I sat for briefest moments he was facing break points.

My father would have been a happy man. He liked Roger and Nadal both, unlike I. He liked Federer little more cause of the grace he had on court. It has been a Year and a week since he passed away. I wish Federer won it little earlier.

Watching Roger in full flight is sight for gods. Here he was playing everything he could think of and pulling it off in style. For me he always was the greatest player in the last 2 decades, that I have been watching tennis.

If anyone had any doubts they were dispelled in such emphatic manner. I wish this were start of a new Roger. I wish he cleaned up the blemish of not having dominated Nadal soon.

Go Roger Go!
