“The first symptom of love in a young man is shyness; the first symptom in a woman, it’s boldness.”
–Victor Hugo
Why go back on my bold claim that Feddy would get to the final and slay his demon and hold on to the crown that was his for one more year? Hugo said it best, my fan love made me bold and with it comes the potential for a fall. But as Fed could see fit to put on a suit and go out and honor Gustavo just hours after his loss, I can soldier on and cheer for him another day.
It was a wonderful win by Soderling, whose joy and talent is so bright that I cannot dim it with anger or sadness for too long.
