The final results of this years US Open was very favorable. Serena and Roger got their groove back. Serena won her 9th slam title and regained Number 1 rank while Roger proved to the nay sayers that he is not just yet going out. Nadal may still be Number 1 but he can not beat Roger's consistency and prowess in all 4 slam surfaces. Nadal lost in the semifinals to Andy Murray proving my point that he is only unbeatable in clay and very good in grass. While Roger has in the past 4 years or so consistently (almost) reached the finals in all four surfaces. 
It was sad to see Andy Roddick lost to that odious Djokovic in the Quarterfinals but very gratifying to get Djokovic beaten by Federer in the Semifinals. Sad that Venus had to bow down to Serena in the Quarterfinals when judging from the way she plays, she could have been in the finals with Serena. I was sad to see Mardy Fish exit in the Quarterfinals against Nadal but all in all, Fish have had a great run in this years US Open. Go Fish! Perhaps I should join Fish supporters called the "fish tank".I was also very happy to see the Bryan brothers take the Men's double trophy. I am smiling...
