Federer Beats Djokovic to Reach US Open 2009 Final

Posted on September 14, 2009 



Had Rafael Nadal not lost in semi-final to Del Potro, the Federer – Nadal meet-up in the US Open 2009 final would have been perfect. So, this time, Federer should be “alone” in the final. Djokovic as he admits was not mentally as strong enough to beat Federer in the semifinal, via NYT:

Roger Federer swept past Novak Djokovic, 7-6 (3), 7-5, 7-5, on Sunday at Arthur Ashe Stadium to reach the finals of the United States Open, a tournament he has won five straight times.

The fourth-seeded Djokovic, 22, who had defeated Federer in two of their three past meetings this year, was competitive throughout the match, but rarely did Federer crack at important points. In the third set, for instance, with both players tied at four games apiece, Federer fought off two break points to win the game.
