Number 15 at 16-14 in the final set! Go Roger!

Wow! What a marathon of a tennis match! Personally, I have never watch a match that lasted this long. Funny tho', at the point when the score was at 10-all in the final set ... I was begining to wonder if it was a live telecast or did someone put in the 2 service games from 6-all ;-)

The FedExpress didn't seem to have the answer to the Rod's service. Everytime, Roddick served, he'd win the game ... then again ... so did Fed when he served.

Only at 14-all did I finally realised ... the only time that Fed won the points was when Roddick faulted on his service! True enough ... the final started. I told my wife and said "Look ... if Rod faults on his first service, Fed will win that point.

And so it did! - Advantage Federer. Roddick serves ... FAULT! whooohoo! "He's gonna win it now!" I shouted.

2nd serve, and Federer makes history! He wins his 6th Wimbledon title, but more noticeably his 15th Grand Slam title.

Looking back ... Fed was not the best player that day, and Rod deserved to win ... but such is life .. till the US Open ... c ya!
