Robin Söderling waits for a congratulatory message from fellow Swede Björn Borg after his defeat of Rafael Nadal kept the Spaniard from exceeding the one-time legend in Roland Garros career titles.
"I'm expecting a SMS, I'm not going to call him," said Söderling. "Hopefully he will call me. That would be great." Borg's record of six French titles - including four in a row 1978-1981 - still stands thanks to the No. 25 player's upset of four-time champion Nadal, who was bidding for his fifth on the trot.
"This is for sure the biggest moment so far of my career.I couldn't even dream of this before the match, so I will remember this match for the rest of my life," said Söderling.
"I'm not really shocked, but it will probably take a while before I can really think about it in a good way, in a right way. It feels very different though".
