Novak Djokovic def. Roger Federer, 6-4, 5-7, 6-4, 6-4
The world No. 1 showed the world why he’s the best hard-court player of his era with a thrilling four-set victory in the men’s final on Sunday evening.
Facing the in-form 17-time Grand Slam singles champion in addition to a pro-Federer crowd, the 28-year-old saved his best to last to win his second US Open title. The top returner in the game broke Federer six times, three times as many as he had been broken in his previous six matches combined, and he kept the Swiss both off balance and on the defensive for much of their three-hour, 20-minute battle.
Up two sets to one and serving with a 5-2 lead, Djokovic looked as if he would claim his 10th Slam with a flourish. Federer had other ideas, however, breaking the Serb when he went to serve for the championship and pushing him to the limit. The comeback ultimately fell short, but not before the duo showed one final time why they’re the gold standards by which all other players on tour are measured.
