US Open 2009

Of coz I'm upset that Federer didn't win US Open 2009 but Del Potro (20 years old, 1.98m, 83kg) played really well and is definitely the next big thing to watch out. Nadal is of the past. Rock-star couple Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale and Vogue editor Anna Wintour were spotted sitting in Federer's guest box, while Del Potro's was almost empty. No one really expected him to get through to the finals, let alone winning it. But his 100mph bullet forehand is indeed unstoppable. US$1.6 million + 2010 Lexus IS convertible!!!!!!

This year's US Open proves to be one with the most turns. Woman's world no. 1 Dinara Safina exited in the 3rd round, Serena Williams' outburst during the semi finals, Kim Clijsters beating BOTH Williams sisters in her third tournament after her comeback, Del Potro winning Nadal in straight sets (6-2, 6-2, 6-2) and winning 5 times defending champion, world no. 1 Roger Federer. Both champions made it through the hard way and are totally deserving. That's the beauty of sports.
