Novak Djokovic defeats Roger Federer in five set classic

After falling behind two sets to none in the semi-finals of the U.S. Open, Novak Djokovic returned a wide 108 mph serve from Roger Federer late in the fifth set with a pin point forehand, bringing a roar from the New York crowd which had rallied behind Federer.

Djokovic then walked over to towel himself off and, smiling up at the crowd gave them a look as if to say, "Welcome back, folks.  Guess what? I'm going to win this match!"

And then the world's number one tennis player delivered, winning the fifth set 7-5.
