Roger Federer beat Robin Soderling
in straight sets to win his first French Open
and equal Pete Sampras's record of fourteen grand slam
titles. World number
two Federer becomes only the sixth man to have won each
of the four Grand
Slam tournaments. The 27 year old Swiss wrapped up a
6-1 7-6 (7-1) 6-4 victory
in a near faultless display in testing conditions to
dominate the Swedish opponent. He joins Fred Perry,
Don Budge, Roy Emerson, Rod Laver and Andre Agassi as
the only men to have won all four Grand Slam titles
and was presented the Coupe des Mousquetaires by Agassi.
