Roger Federer quest for a record matching six wins at the US Open did not materialise after he failed to convert the crucial points. I saw him playing some of his best tennis of his career but sometimes you need that little bit of luck more than once. He seldom lose in tie breaks and always win when leading set points or match points. This was not his day.
I think lady luck was not with him this time compared to his time at the French Open or that epic tussle with Andy Roddick at Wimbledon. I believe based on his display today, I have no qualms that he would win more Grand Slams in the near future before retirement.
Roger, you are still the greatest.....Tiger Woods has also failed at several Majors this season after going in at his best form.
