Federer has been back to his dazzling best at Flushing
Meadows and enjoyed the almost complete backing of the American support, but
Djokovic showed his iron-will again to win 6-4 5-7 6-4 6-4.
It means Djokovic has a second US Open title to add to his
first in 2011, and he moves just one short of Bjorn Borg in the Open era's
all-time champions list.
After sealing victory in three hours and 20 minutes,
Djokovic turned to his box and pointed to his chest before commiserating his
beaten opponent at the net.
