man to win a grand slam in 76 years.
Andy Murray jumped out to a two-set lead, watched
it wither away, then turned up the heat again in the
fifth set on his way to a 7-6 (12-10), 7-5, 2-6, 3-6, 6-2
victory against Novak Djokovic to win the U.S. Open.
It was a historic win for Murray, previously 0-4 in
major finals, and for Britain, which hadn't had a male
Grand Slam champion since Fred Perry in 1936.
Murray now can claim some bragging rights as the
player of the year: A major title -- four different
winners of majors in 2012 -- and an Olympic gold
medal.
