Stan had his day, but was not God enough for Clay Warrior on a mission to pass Sampras. Still a good tournament for Stan the Man.
Respectfully,
masterclass
make no mistake about it general:
Stan the man is very good. and I believe he is an all time great in my book.
his work is far from done.
he has the talent on loan from the gods and he has the drive and the hunger.
he has another slam left in him.
I believe his near 5 hour semifinal was a factor today.
the man is 32. recovery is less than optimal with such a grueling semifinal. he had to come back from being down 2 sets to one against Andy.
