Final result was 7-6, 7-5, 2-6, 3-6, 6-2. Andy Murray is the first British man to win a Grand Slam event since 1936 when Fred Perry won the US Open. He's had the best summer of his life, tennis-wise, and is a new player. Credit should also go to his coach Ivan Lendl (who also lost his first four Grand Slam finals before winning at the fifth attempt).
