This is a good take on the U.S.Open final.

This guy predicted Murray wasn't ready to win a grand slam when the tournament started in another story. I'm not sure he gives Delpo enough credit, but he makes some good points.

The article of reference is rather bland. There may have been a miscalculation by RF that lowered his game while delPo initiated a marked ascendency in his. He has extraordinary talent, lots of heart, now indomitable self confidence and he is seven years younger. He also plays out of an extraordinary Association led by Enrique Morea. The infrastructure of the AAT permitted delPo to go back to the drawing board after the Australian and map out a good overall game plan for future tourneys which he has followed faithfully. He will be #1 sooner than later.
