Last night I watched what was probably the best quality tennis match I've seen in my lifetime. Roddick vs. Federer at the US Open. Neither were broken in the entire first two sets, which were both ultimately decided by tie-breakers. Andy Roddick played the best he can play and still wasn't good enough to beat "Flawless Fed." Roddick hit great shot after great shot, shots that would have been winners against anyone else and somehow Federer would get to them and hit a shot of equal or better quality. He makes it look easy. At one point, he hit an impossible return off of a 143 mile per hour Roddick serve. It hit right on the back line and Roddick had an expression of "How'd he do that?" on his face. Fed effortlessly gets to almost every shot and when he does make a mistake, you think it is just that, a mistake. The guy rarely even sweats or breathes hard. That says a lot considering the amount of running that takes place in a long tennis match. The game must move so slow for him now that the court seems half the size. My conclusion based on watching Fed for 5 years is, he MUST be a robot.
