I'm so happy that he made history.

Was on the edge of the seat throughout that damn match, in the end i felt drained out and i didn't even play.

CONGRATS Roger, what a summer, next up is something even better than a grand slam, a baby.

I'm so happy for him! I know it was a match full of suspense but somehow I was very chill and zen about it (okay the cool was buried deep deep down but it was still there while I was freaking out). So happy for Roger just in general for winning Wimbeldon again but also because he made history!

Haha I felt the same way!! I thought this was Roddick's time to win, but Rog was just too good. I really hope Roddick will win sometime soon- he played so well today! Congrats to Rog and his 15th major title though!!! Notice how the first post about his win was on page 15! haha.

I really thought Andy had it in the bag as well, but like Sampras said; that is the quality of every great player, to seize on those tiny opportunities when they present themselves. And i hope Roddick does get it next year to.

Thanks so much for the pictures, i loved his jacket, it had 15 on the back, hahah, and he said if he lost, it would have stayed in the bag.

well done Roger!!
at the end of the match I was so nervous I couldn't even watch it!!
I kinda feel sorry for Andy, cause he played so well this time... but I'm sure he's gonna have others opportunities! apparently the marriage did very well to both of them B)

I knew in my heart who the winner would be, but I was really impressed by Andy Roddick's play - and his fighting spirit. Mind you, I spared myself some of the mid-match angst by turning over to watch an episode or Columbo instead. There were moments when I couldn't watch.

Final was so tense I feared my wife would go into labour,' says Roger Federer

06th July 2009

Wimbledon champion Roger Federer may have crashed into the record books with his stunning win at the men's finals last night. But he revealed the tense final had him worried that wife Miroslava 'Mirka' would go into labour.

Federer's other big achievement for 2009 could clearly be seen as he arrived on the purple carpet at last night's Champions Dinner. The Swiss tennis champ was escorted by his eight months pregnant wife, 31, who was glowing with health despite being close to giving birth to the couple's first child.

Wearing a dark blue gown, and cheerful pink cardigan, Mirka gamely turned out to support her champion husband. And Federer today said his Wimbledon win over Andy Roddick was so tense he feared his pregnant wife Mirka would go into labour.

Mrs Federer was in the court-side box to see her Swiss husband collect a record 15th Grand Slam and reclaim the world No 1 spot. According to reports, Federer’s practice partner kept a mobile phone in his sock ahead of the match in case his wife went into labour.

The pair were more relaxed at the Champions’ Dinner at the Intercontinental Hotel in Hyde Park. Mrs Federer, due to give birth to their first child before the end of August, stayed for more than hour wearing a pink cardigan and dark blue maternity dress. Her husband ignored the black tie dress code and turned up in a dark suit and tie.

Federer, who beat No 6 seed Roddick 5-7, 7-6, 7-6, 3-6, 16-14 in the longest men’s final set, said: 'This is very special because of the situation with Mirka. In fact, she thought she was going to go into labour during the match and so did I! I will now regroup after this amazing win and people are asking what am I going to do now - and supporting Mirka is my answer.'

I was just about to post those Wimbledon party pics. Thanks! Mirka is about to blow...I mean that in a good way. I think they're having a son, can't wait to see what they name him.
