Roger Federer wins his 14th Slam.

If anyone doubted that Roger Federer could do it, he just did.

Not only did he win the elusive French Open and Roland Garros to claim a ful house of grandslams, he equalled the record of Pete Sampras, making him effectively the best player ever to have played the sport. Note: Roger has also won a gold medal in the Olympics, albeit a doubles medal.

Its high time that Roger has finally done what we all know he is able to. Despite the fact that Nadal has been ousted early in the tournament, Fed did not have it easy He played a series of five setters before claiming a straight sets victory in the final over the giant slaying Robin Soderling. Roger was all over Soderling from the get go; deadly accurate forehands, dropshots that bounce at the same spot twice, backhand slices that stay low, forcing the big Swede to stretch for them. Roger played master class while Soderling was taught a lesson in tennis extraordinaire.

So onwards to the next target for Federer, a 15th slam at Wimbledon. That will truly make him the greatest player the world of tennis has ever seen.

The unthinkable has happened... Rafa Nadal has lost for the first time in Roland Garros. And it wasn't to Roger Federer or Andy Murray. It was unexpectedly to the 23rd seed, Robin Soderling of Sweden. At last, someone has found the game which could possibly be harnessed by future players against Nadal.

Flat forehands, hitting on the rise coupled with a solid first serve; thats the game you would expect Nadal who hits with a lot of topspin to struggle with. But then again, you have to play a very very good game to beat Nadal and Soderling played in what is possibly the best match of his life.

This year's Roland Garros has been full of surprises, no less Djokovic's loss to German Phillip Kohlschreiber, and now the exit of defending champions Nadal and Ana Ivanovic in the men's and women's singles respectively.

The obvious question now is: with Nadal gone, will it be finally Federer's year to claim the only Grand Slam that has eluded him all his career? We await with great excitement.
