NEW YORK (AP): For Andy Murray and the UK, it was quite reasonable.
Forced a fifth set, despite winning the first two against defending champion Novak Djokovic in the U.S. Open final.
Tie a record 4 hours, 54 minutes burns leg, moving stories stomach itself highlights lasting 10, 20, 30 or 55 years - yes, 55! - Hub.
Floats and know everything that Murray was interrupted four Grand Slam match before, plus 76-286 drought years since the last major tournament title for a British
Overall, well worth the wait.
Promote your considerable history and chance, escape, Murray dug deep shrug perseverance and mental toughness back offer and survive Djokovic 7-6 (10) 7-5, 2 -6, 3-6, 6 -2 on Monday to win the championship to win at Flushing Meadows.
"The place is probably the best word to use to describe how I feel right now,'' said Murray." They are a little incredulous, as if I had been in this position many times and did not win, do not you think: Is it happen at all''
Yes, it has. Murray had already shown he could find great and won the gold medal on home soil at the Olympics in London last month. That was part of what has become a summer special for him, including an appearance - but, unfortunately, a defeat, of course - in the Wimbledon final. But here was different Olympics. It was a victory in a Grand Slam tournament, the standard for universal use, measure the size of tennis.
"Even after winning the Olympic Games,'' Murray said on Monday:" I asked again, "When are you going to win a Grand Slam'' '
Djokovic, who won four of the previous seven, said: "The Grand Slam tournament that deserved to win more than anyone, I'm sure, because over the years, was one of the leaders was so close ..''
Ah, yes, so close. The words are often used when it is not. For Murray for him.
His loss to Roger Federer at the All England Club in July, Murray left in tears, his voice breaking as he told the crowd Support Centre Court. "I'm getting closer'' He could not know how right he was, and Murray. Seems right point on Monday after entering his first full epic in 25 minutes to 22 points tiebreaker - the longest for a U.S. Open . the end - then run for 4-0 in the second.
But maybe it was not the right thing do not come easy for her, considering all that Murray and - since Fred Perry won Wimbledon and U.S. championships in 1936 - the British experience, the subject of much discussion and consternation in the UK, where it won the first title tennis star has become "at Wimbledon in 1877.
Murray was one of only two men in the professional era, which began in 1968, lost his first four Grand Slam finals - against Djokovic in the Australia Open in 2011 and three times against Federer.
The other boy, 0-4 start? Ivan Lendl, who is the current coach of Murray today. Aggression said Murray is one of the improvements are under the direction of Lendl, who has still for much of Saturday's meeting, glasses on top of the white baseball cap with arms crossed and resting on her red sweater - in short, betraying emotion than ever during his playing career.
"All I can do is stay in office and continue all that you give. If someone better than you, that's too bad, and go back and try again, '" said Lendl, who finished with eight major titles. "We feel, try to understand where they can improve, improve what we have to beat some players, and then go to work.''
As the finish approached, Djokovic - who had won eight consecutive five sets, including the semifinals (against Murray) and final (Rafael Nadal) in the Australia Open in January - was the one that seems fragile, gets squatting at the base to stretch his aching muscles. After the break behind 5-2 in the fifth leg, Djokovic massaged by a trainer.
"Well, every loss is a loss is bad.'' No doubt, Djokovic said." I'm disappointed to lose the game, but in the mind, I knew I gave everything. I really, really tried to break through.''
Nobody flew straight sets in the U.S. Open since 1949, and Murray was determined not this distinction.
"If he lost from two sets up,'' said Murray," that would have to bear.''
Djokovic knows how to get back. He won three times, after a two-set hole, more recently, in the fourth round of the French Open this year, especially in the U.S. Open semifinals against Federer last year.
"Novak is very, very hard. Fights to the end of each game,'' Murray said." I do not know how I managed to reach the final.''
Murray break ahead in the fifth quick 1-0 lead, his shot looked strong band sends Djokovic, who missed a backhand, and smiled a crooked smile of disbelief, shaking his head. Murray led the transition chomping on a white cloth.
It was a 2-0 lead for Murray soon after when a 131 mph service winner and then hammered a formidable defense to stretch a point Djokovic lost again. Murray yelled and pumped his arms, and the audience responded with a roar. Murray broke again to go ahead 3-0, but it was unclear.
It was still difficult issue, to realize what he never had: win the last point of a Grand Slam tournament.
And how then Murray could not be absolutely sure. For now
"You mean you will be able to do it, it will be very difficult to do,'' said Murray, who is now No. 3 in the ATP world rankings behind Federer and Djokovic." If you've been there many times and have not done, is easy to doubt.''
If Djokovic, who. ₩ 27 Grand Slam matches short drive just sent a long right turn at the end point, Murray ducked and covered her mouth with both hands, as if he could not believe that the time has actually passed The Scot has 25 years of his shoes and jumped at every turn, while he strengthened by the court. Djokovic came to congratulate and embrace while "Chariots of Fire'' sound from the speakers at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
"You try not to think too much when you're playing, but ... when I used to play this game, is something that I noticed - the importance of this moment for British tennis and British sport,'' Murray said." This is something that has not happened for a long time, of course, in our country.''
Murray and Djokovic was born a week apart in May of 1987 and have experienced, and., Considering the other, since they were about 11 before Saturday's semifinals in New York, shared a computer and sit together to see Murray and Djokovic in Scotland Serbia 0-0 line. In a qualifying match for the World Cup
Wind was launched on Monday, treated with gusts over 25 mph, and a better Murray. Murray had many notable supporters in the stands, including a couple from Scotland who crashed his press conference after his semifinal. Actor Sean Connery and Manchester United, Alex Ferguson's last British woman to win a Grand Slam singles title, 1977 Wimbledon champion Virginia Wade, was also present among the games to entertain with actor Stanley Tucci.
Loaded with air ball and make dipping or darts back and forth, almost every shot has become a bit of an adventure. Both players have to adjust mid-swing back, writhing contact us. Both services are bumps in the ground as the ball danced on strike. Because of the wind on the microphone umpire involved, we think of a strong and disturbing, thunder.
"They did a lot of walking. Unfortunately not be able to find really great shots at the right time. Forced me to go to the winner or error,'' said Djokovic." Unfortunately I made a lot of mistakes.''
He was 65 unforced errors from Murray to 56, combined for 49 unforced errors than winners. That is, it should probably be a statistical counting errors forced wind.
Almost like a mirror exchanged breaks in the first two games, which makes sense, because the way both are very good serve return. Two of the best in the game right now, can not be. Djokovic crouched back almost parallel to the ground before the opponent serves. Murray shuffles his weight from one leg to the front and jump at the last second to cut corners.
Both worked hard, physical harm. Djokovic was the right knee after scratching for a few somersaults on the court a little when he lost his grip bleeding, and changed his shoes at the end of the third set. Murray shook his left thigh, while deciding not pursue a balloon.
He had 10 points. Least 10 shots each in the tie-break in the first set Djokovic saved each of the first five set points Murray, the last with an ace 123 thousand hours at 10-all. But Djokovic backhand flew long at the end of a shoot 21, No. 6 by the command, and this time Murray turned and came to serve 117 miles at night, that Djokovic could not put in the yard.
Murray returned to his guest box and shouted: "Come''
Final Djokovic 6-5 in the second set kick, stammered. In a career-high 31 points Djokovic missed a forehand to make it 15-30. Murray and defensive skills came into play when he received a statement overhead Djokovic defeated and forced a second, which sailed wide. Raised his chest heaving, Sat Djokovic put his hands on his hips, struggling to understand what was happening. Two points later, Djokovic put a forehand inside-out wide, which set the Murray. Lendl also rose.
After stretching a backhand volley winner at 1-1 in the third cellar, Djokovic gave a guttural scream and pumped his fists. Through the network, Murray frowned. In the next game, Murray performed a monologue of self-warning, Djokovic raised his better late than never charged. She broke for a 2-1 lead, used a 126 mph with a great return. Fast enough, goes to a fourth set.
"At some point it was narrated that want more or want it bad,'' Lendl said." I do not think Novak is not desired. How much what is the price you pay and how you can work under extreme pressure to perform?''
Make an important tactical move, Djokovic pushed us in almost all occasions, shortening points and had just stolen whenever he could. Finally won the point on 39 of 56 trips to the net, Murray was 16 of 24
A critical moment came with Djokovic face a break point, Murray could take farewell, also in the fourth set. After Murray missed a forehand to the devil umpire Jake Garner warned President Djokovic too long between points. I wanted to start a discussion followed and after winning the next point with a service winner, Djokovic sent a "Take That!'' Finding Garner. In the stands, standing on Djokovic's father and saw Garner. 3-1 to Djokovic and finally forced the fifth set.
Murray was time to enter the clutch, and he did.
Federer, Nadal and Djokovic - lost the U.S. Open with a left knee injury - has won 29 of the last 30 majors (except Juan Martin del Potro in New York in 2009).
Murray enters the club of the Grand Slam.
For years, Murray was about the pressure she was four-time Wimbledon semifinalist Tim Henman before him to give Britain a champion in a sport he loves asked.
"Of course, I'm proud of what we've been trying to get to me,'' said Murray, his shiny silver trophy sitting around." And do not let stupid question to ask again.''
