Who Wins US Open 2009?

It is complicated to pick a clear-cut winner at this early stage. As expected, Roger Federer is the big favorite by the ESPN Experts. Of course, the Swiss was the last man standing in five consecutive times. Federer is an all-court player. He plays fantastic in Wimbledon (6 wins) and achieve in first big win in clay this year.

Yet, if something unexpected will happen, just like in Roland Garros 2009 where Rafael Nadal was ousted by Swede (Robin Soderling) in fourth round, Andy Roddick or Andy Murray can win this Slam.

US Open 2009: Any Bets?

The last grand slam of the year is coming. US Open starts August 31 but until now, I still have no clear-cut bets in who the last man and woman standing at the end of the finish line. Roger Federer and Serena Williams are of course the big favorites because they were the defending champions. Federer and Serena outlasted Andy Murray and Jelena Jankovic in straight sets last year. I wonder if Federer smashes his way to sixth consecutive win this year. That's a possibility, a huge possibility in fact but let's not forget the likes of Andy Roddick (Federer's runnerup in Wimbledon 2009), Andy Murray (This Brit defeated Federer four times) and Novak Djokovic (Nole maimed Federer in two different surfaces this earlier part of the year, concrete and clay and Fed's runner-up in Cincinnati Masters Open).

For further predictions, you can read it on my TENNIS MATCH POINT 40 I just hope I still got the energy to make a post. Haha!

For example, in playing tennis, you need to level up your confidence to win tournaments. If you regularly think you’re a subpar athlete, then winning a match will be difficult.
