Since it's the US Open...

Check out this crazy, crazy shot here. Roger says it's the most amazing shot of his career.

Here's a great read on tennis' best rivalry at the moment, and provides a nice bit of information on how elite an athlete Roger Federer is:

"Roger's a sneaky-hard worker," Cahill said earlier this week. "He gets to the tournament and in practice all he's doing is trying to groove his shots, slap the ball around and hit some different spins. Little do they know, this guy's been grinding away on the back courts somewhere else."

I really like the idea of competition which brings out the best in athletes, how it motivates them to elevate their games. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are unbelievable champions, and the rivalry has been kind of put on hold now because of Rafa's injury and just in, his recent loss to Juan Martin del Potro.

The Argentine is really good and could be trouble. Still, go Roger.
