Victorious over Djokovic in the semi-finals, Murray troubled an error-strewn Federer from the outset. After saving two break points in the opening game of the match, he broke serve in game six before holding for 5-2 with two booming aces. Murray buried a backhand passing shot to wrap up the 37-minute first set, given he also took the opener in the Wimbledon final with cheap Adidas Men Water Grip Sandals Shoes, there remained a sense of caution around the stadium.

That caution turned into belief when a forehand pass clipped a net cord to elude Federer in game two of the second set and he then saved six break points to hold for 3-0. Federer looked agitated and his fans dejected and a rare double fault let Murray strike again before the Scot swiftly served out to extend his advantage. The Scot's performance continued to improve as his opponent's faded and Federer's delivery was breached decisively in game with Adidas Men Water Grip Sandals Shoes five of the third set as Murray powered towards the finishing line, dropping just one point on serve as he closed out with an ace.

"I didn't expect that at the start of the week," added Murray after collecting his gold medal. "I thought I'd go deep into the tournament but I felt so fresh today. It's amazing."
