Roger Federer

Many consider Roger Federer to be the best tennis champion in the history of tennis. Despite some set back recently, he certainly appears to have overcome it and has come back really strong.

All eyes were on him at the US Open, and his potential rival Rafa Nadal. Many wanted to see a showdown final between the two. But the unexpected was to happen. Argentinian Juan Martin del Potro made mince meat out of Nadal, and proceeded to slay Federer in a historic, scintillating five-set final.
