“It’s not as much about the result, as it is about the journey.”

How true is that statement?? What a story that unfolded in France on Sunday!! For those of you who don’t follow tennis, history was made in a rainy afternoon in Paris. Roger Federer was crowned the 2009 French Open Champion while completing the career grand slam and, most importantly, won his record tying 14th career grand slam title. I never watched tennis growing up. In fact, it wasn’t until the Andy Roddick – Roger Federer match at the 2006 US Open that I started watching tennis (while I was waiting for a haircut). I was actually cheering for Roddick that day since I knew he was a fellow Austinite. But Federer was simply too good.

Fast forward a few years and I found myself riding along an emotional roller coaster that had him losing a heart-break at both the 2008 Wimbledon and the 2009 Australian Open to Nada, an up and coming tennis machine that is pretty much the human version of Pong. You can see from the first video (after the jump) that Federer wanted it bad – there was no question about it. And this is what made #14 so sweet (and #15 even sweeter if he redeems himself at Wimbledon against Nadal).

It’s almost better that some of the stuff is inaudible. Maybe I’ll get the video from LL and put caption on it. =D

We were talking about this on Sunday in the kitchen at CM. I had to see it for myself. WOW. I am at the office wishing I was playing GH (with Heidi, of course) now. =P

Just thought I’d post this to share… This is an interesting video, I don’t know enough about the history of this to comment, and I will refrain from endorsing one candidate over another… Please view with a grain of salt…
