Andy Murray beats Novak Djokovic to win first career Grand Slam,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Open final Monday.
It had been 76 years since a British man won a Grand Slam singles championship and,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], at least as far as Murray was concerned, it was well worth the wait.
Ending a nation's long drought,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and snapping his own four-final skid in majors,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Murray finally pulled through with everything at stake on a Grand Slam stage,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], shrugging off defending champion Djokovic's comeback bid to win 7-6 (10), 7-5, 2-6, 3-6,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 6-2.
"Novak is so, so strong. He fights until the end in every single match," Murray said. "I don't know how I managed to come through in the end."
Yes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Murray already showed he could come up big by winning the gold medal in front of a home crowd at the London Olympics last month. But this was different. Championships, as the event was known back then.
Murray vs. Open final. The first-set tiebreaker's 22 points set a tournament mark. They repeatedly produced fantastic, tales-in-themselves points, lasting 10, 20, 30, even 55 - yes, 55! - strokes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], counting the serve. The crowd gave a standing ovation to salute one majestic, 30-stroke point in the fourth set that ended with Murray's forehand winner as Djokovic fell to the court, slamming on his left side.
By the end, Djokovic - who had won eight consecutive five-set matches,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], including in the semifinals (against Murray) and final (against Rafael Nadal) at the Australian Open in January - was the one looking fragile,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], trying to catch breathers and doing deep knee bends at the baseline to stretch his aching groin muscles. After getting broken to trail 5-2 in the fifth, Djokovic had his legs massaged by a trainer.
"I really tried my best,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Djokovic said.
When Djokovic sent a forehand return long on the final point, Murray crouched and covered his mouth with both hands, as though even he could not believe this moment had actually arrived. The 25-year-old Scot removed his sneakers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], grimacing with each step as he gingerly stepped across the court. Djokovic came around to offer congratulations and a warm embrace, while "Chariots of Fire" blared over the Arthur Ashe Stadium loudspeakers.
Murray was one of only two men in the professional era,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which began in 1968, to have lost his first four Grand Slam finals. The other? Ivan Lendl, who just so happens to be Murray's coach nowadays.
The lack of a title for Murray,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and for his country,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], has been the subject of much conversation and consternation in the United Kingdom, where the first of what would become tennis' top titles was awarded at Wimbledon in 1877.
