In us open tennis 2005:
Roger Federer, a man of panache and unparalleled perfection in finals, withstood federer agassi us open's spirited upset bid to capture a second straight us open tennis and sixth Grand Slam title... Federer moved into a tie with Stefan Edberg and Boris Becker for Grand Slam titles among Open era players, and one behind John McEnroe and Mats Wilander. Pete Sampras holds the record with 14 Grand Slam titles, but at 24 years old, Federer could well have a shot at that.
federer agassi us open responded to his few moments of pressure by reeling off seven straight points in the tiebreak that turned around the match, then blew Agassi away in the fourth set to win 6-3, 2-6, 7-6 (7-1), 6-1 Sunday and run his stunning record in finals over the past two years to 23-0.
"This is probably the most special Grand Slam final in my career," Federer said. "To play against Andre in New York, it's a dream."
Though the 35-year-old Agassi was the oldest U.S. Open men's finalist in 31 years, age had less to do with the difference in this match than Federer's sheer strength, variety of serves, and superior balance of attacks from the baseline and the net that wore down Agassi.
federer agassi us open has battled the champions of three eras -- Pete Sampras, Boris Becker, John McEnroe, Jimmy Connors, Ivan Lendl -- and now he puts Roger Federer above them all.
The Swiss star forced the action, going for winners more aggressively, dancing around the court with poise, unrattled even when Agassi had him down a break at 4-2 in the third set.
"Over the last 20 years I have come full circle," Agassi said. "It has been an amazing journey and discovery of each other as I have grown up out here. To be here at an age where I can take in that sort of love and be at an age where I can embrace it is a tremendous feeling. I will never forget this."
"He's the best I have ever played against," Agassi said definitively of Federer, who improved to 6-0 in Grand Slam finals and extended his ATP Tour-record streak of finals won to 23.
Federer shrieked and leapt into the air when Agassi's backhand return looped on the championship point. The two men, who have the highest respect for each other, shook hands warmly at the net.
