For many reasons, 2008 was a season that went against convention. Would you have even wagered a dollar on a long-shot bet that, heading into the US Open, Roger Federer and Justine Henin would have no Grand Slam titles between them? It’s been a very interesting year, no matter which player you support.Typically, the four Grand Slam tournaments have a way of revealing everything in tennis, and that happened again this year, for better or worse.

Andy Murray has broken through the ranks to his first Grand Slam final, but at times over these two weeks in New York, his favorite city on the planet, the 21-year-old Scot has looked as scratchy as his adolescent, patchy beard.

Serena Williams has put in thousands of hours on court to become a women’s tennis legend, but she’s perhaps never worked as hard as she has in 2008. Finally, after a trying season at the majors, all that labor came to fruition as she came away with her third US Open title with a dramatic and hard-fought 6-4, 7-5 victory over Jelena Jankovic in the final on Sunday.

Serena Williams flung her racket straight up and jumped for joy, hopping and skipping and screaming and generally looking like someone who had just won her first U.S. Open title or earned her debut at No. 1.

On s’attendait à un exploit du n°1 mondial, mené deux sets à zéro hier lorsque la tempête Hannah a interrompu la rencontre, mais c’est bien Andy Murray qui disputera sa première finale à l’US Open après avoir éliminé Rafael Nadal en quatre manches (6/2, 7/6, 4/6, 6/4 en 3h30).
