PARIS .- Ni ‘Jimmy Jump’, the creep of barretina, devolved to Roger Federer on his way to his first Roland Garros title, to his appointment with the legend. Neither Robin Soderling upset the script. Their game plan, to the waist, was a gift for the Swiss. Without disheveled, won at last in his quarter final in Paris, the Musketeers Cup after a comfortable 6-1, 7-6 (1) and 6-4 in one hour and 55 minutes.

The unique tennis Las Vegas, as required for specified occasion, presented the trophy to a course, tear champion. In victory or in defeat, Federer always cries. “Thanks for being here, Andre,” said the replacement of the Musketeers Cup to end in his hands. “You were the last to complete the Grand Slam. Now I know how it feels.” Like Agassi, Federer won in the French capital at the eleventh attempt.
After one more first round itself, the world number two, with options to regain first place in Wimbledon when Nadal finally arrives late for the event, matched the record of 14 ‘major’ which until now held in solitary Pete Sampras. The U.S. has achieved after 52 ‘majors’ dispute, over the thirty, while Federer sum 27 years and contested his 40th Grand Slam.
Also obtained the exclusive membership card for the club champions from the four most important tournaments in the world. Federer enters it as the sixth man after Fred Perry (1935), Donald Budge (1938), Rod Laver (1962), Roy Emerson (1964) and Andre Agassi (1999).
Without resources, beyond some modest increases in the network, tremendous Swedish tennis returned to a more heap in his first major final, with a tennis player who has only caught one after September 10 clashes. Only in the second part is sensed the new player, capable of rendering high on a surface which never stressed. Forced the game tiebreaker, but Federer then responded with four direct services in as many attempts. Incontestable.
During the remainder of the meeting, before and after, he merely comparsa Soderling at the party of the emperor, whom the storm, threatening throughout the end of this intermittently, but never enough to stop the duel, “nor would bother. “I have given a lesson in how to play tennis, Roger,” Soderling said at the ceremony, little affected by the defeat. “To me, you’re the best in history. You deserve this victory.”

Highlights of French Open final :
Scandinavian tennis, from Monday to jump to the twelfth position classification, showed a more friendly face than usual. “Before the final, talking to Magnus [Norman, his coach], we promised that no one could earn 10 times in a row,” he said. “Now I say that nobody can defeat him 11 times in a row.” The copyright of the joke, however, belong to Vitas Gerulaitis. “Nobody beats Gerulaitis 14 times in a row,” said a day before facing Bjorn Borg. They were not 14 but 16 times when the U.S. fell sequentially to the ‘invincible’ at the time.
Federer, as in previous days, again to the left hates so much that in the past, once it became clear that it does not suffer much from the baseline to 11 after shares in Paris has learned how to suffer on the slow surface . Faced only two points of ‘break’ against, one in the fourth game of the third manga, resolved with a masterful right, and when pulled to close the game, solved thanks to an error by Soderling. Then he dropped on the clay. “Now I can rest easy,” he told French television. “I won Roland Garros.”
