Serena took home "Major #14 " on Saturday. Not a bad match, and Serena actually had some shaky moments. Her 5th Wimbledon. She later won her 5th Wimbledon doubles title with "big sis " Venus. How much longer will she play? How hungry is she for "more majors "? Her true place in history will be determined after seeing what more she can accomplish over the next 3 -4 years. She's already top ten all-time, possibly top 7 . Can she sneak into top 5, top 3 ? Let's see!
On the Men's side , the Federer -Murray match was "high drama" all the way. Federer wanting and needing that 7th Wimbledon Title and striving to regain his #1 ranking. Murray "the favorite son ", playing for himself and a nation. Serving up 2 sets to one , up 5-4 , Federer could taste it . The crowd was pulling so hard for Murray, but I guess, not suprisingly there were a lot of Federer supporters there.
As you know Roger pulled it out. Won #7 and Murray and all of Great Britian was devastated. There was not a dry eye at Wimbledon(or anywhere else) during Murray's post-match comments. Two very classy guys! Great stuff.
Well don't go anywhere...Next stop London Olympics right back at Wimbledon!
