Twelve grand slam titles and counting for the man they dub the Fed.  Grabe, this demigod belongs to a class all his own. I feel I must genuflect hahaha... (two more to go before breaking Sampras' record). He's violently sublime :p a real sportsman on and off-court.

But truth be told, in my heart of hearts, I was secretly rooting for Novak Djokovic - history books be damned. 

I think everything about him is endearing, hehehe :P The Sharapova and Nadal impersonations, the competitive and "never say die attitude" with aching muscles and all, and the youthful effervescence and humility that makes him so unlike Nadal - who I both like and hate because of different reasons. Let's just say I enjoy the thought of him creaming his opponent yet getting creamed at the same time.

I like this picture of Djokovic - it's so fiery and whimsical all at once.
