Blake on Federer's loss to Djokovic in Wimbledon final: 'It kind of broke him a bit'

James Blake spoke about the Wimbledon final which happened earlier this year between Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic which went all the way in the longest singles final in the tournament's history.

Blake said that it broke Federer despite him having what he calls the best short memory to put situations behind him.

Jim Courier also spoke about it and said that we will only know if the bottle is still there if he is serving for another Grand Slam victory.

"Roger is one of the best I've ever seen at having a short memory and putting it behind him.

That one, for him to even admit that it kind of broke him a bit, you know how devastating that was. … Him and (Pete) Sampras are the two best I've ever seen with finishing a match - win or lose - and being done with it and worrying about the next one."

Jim Courier also gave his opinion: "I don't think that we'll really know unless he gets back to a situation where he's serving for another Slam at 40-15 and we'll see how he reacts. We'll see if he's loose or if he's tight.
