Tennis' Olympic reputation scores an ace
BEIJING (AP) Roger Federer collapsed on his back in jubilation, a scene familiar at the end of Wimbledon or the U.S. Open.
But this was after a semifinal match. In doubles. At the Olympics.
As Federer's zeal would suggest, Olympic tennis has become a big deal to top players. The majority may never covet a gold medal the way they do a Grand Slam title, and tennis is unlikely to challenge track, swimming or gymnastics as quintessential Olympic sports.
