FedEx Derailed !!!
It was difficult to see R Federer going down in straight sets. But, somehow felt that atleast there was real competition for him. Novak out-classed him in many areas in the SemiFinal. His picking up of the opponents drop shots and placing them in the right areas is outstanding. Novak also used the corners of the cour very well. Roger was, however, did not use the power of first-serve to an extent Novak utlized. Roger's forehand was the worst of all. Even if the third set went Rogers way, the way he played (disappointingly) suggested that he would have been down 3-1. Unlike, in the last final where these two met Djo held his nerve in the tie-breaker to win the set and eventually the match. Probably, the youngsters are beginning to outplay the middle-aged Fed (in Tennis terms). Is this the beginning of a new era in tennis ? Well lets see !
