Well done! Shingo won't get any of the write-ups and praise of Nishikori...but he is a MAJOR winner!

Well done to Serena Williams for winning the women's. And she did it without even having to wear ear muffs! Now she's number 3 in the all time Grand Slam winners' list. I don't think Sharapova has beaten her once in the past 10 years!
Forget about Shingo. Even Serena won't get a mention, apart from a replay of her finals match after midnight.

What can anyone say other than BRAVO ZULU!
The human spirit is true........
We are one race, we are all part of the human race!
There is no race, there is no creed and there is no religion!
We are all of one being, Human beings!
To all those that represented, BRAVO ZULU!

I didn't hear about this news anywhere... Great Job!! I wish they would show this on tv! It would open the eyes of people on the way they see sport!
Shingo might not be in the news, but he is a better player then Nishikori! will ever be. For those who don't know.. He is the world number 1. And has won 7!!! Australian opens! Also he won THREE Grand slams last year! What a legend!
Good luck to Nishikori to get close to anything Shingo has done. All the bes with the next one Shingo!!
