An Olympic Moment

8/7/2012

Winning In front of his home crowd with the world looking on, Andy Murray poured his passion and desire in very shot. The vicotry was set up perfectly,  in what instantly will likely be known as one of the greatest moments in the British Olympics.

Matched up against recent rival Roger Federer, the spotlights were beaming. The tennis gods were smiling down on the young Mr. Murray. The veteran Federer certainly did not roll over for the young Brit. Fighting for every volley and match point, Federer's attack was almost flawless. In the end, the gold-winning point would be decided on Murray's powerful ace, aimed directly at the Wimbledon Champ.

A normally quiet English crowd cheered and jeered, loud and proud for their countryman. Upon victory, Murray jumped into that same crowd to embrace his family and friends. An emotional moment for an emotional athlete. An Olympic memory for those who watched, as they were rewarded with an historic tennis match.

Andy Murray played is heart out and defeated the favored Roger Federer, who just a month earlier defeated him on the same court for the Wimbledon tournament victory.  Taking the one thing the great Federer does not have, An Olympic Singles Gold Medal.
