Roger Federer is becoming as deadly with his back to the net as he is when he faces his foes. Spectacular between the legs shot Flushing Meadows
The world No.2 smacked another between-the-legs shot for the ages at the US Open on Monday in a 6-1 6-4 6-2 first-round victory over Argentina's 96th-ranked Brian Dabul in a night match at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Federer's fantastic shot was similar to a jaw-dropping winner he hit against Novak Djokovic in last year's US Open semi-finals, a between-the-legs blast for a crucial point as he was running from the net behind the baseline.n the ninth game of Monday's (New York time) second set, Federer hit a between-the-legs, back-to-the-net running forehand winner from behind the baseline, raising his arms and smiling after blasting the winner past Dabul, who stared and shrugged. Roger Federer Hits Another Tweener Between The Leg Shot - US Open 2010 - 1st Round
''Last year's was probably a little bit more important just because it was love-30 to go love-40, two points away from the match, and it was a semi-final, so obviously that has a little bit of an impact,'' Federer said. Scorpi0nGirl
''But in terms of difficulty maybe this one was harder, because I had the feeling I had to run a longer distance and I was further back somehow. I had to really give the last big push at the end. I didn't have time to set it up."

Roger Federer hit another tweener in his 1st round match in US Open 2010 vs. Brian Dabul - 2nd set. He looked as if he himself couldn't believe he pulled the shot again :). Very cute/sheepish smile on his face after the shot. Some suggested that this one is harder to hit than the one he hit vs. Djokovic in US Open 2009 semi final match because this time he was even further away from baseline. Watch the magician pulls yet another trick! The great Roger Federer!
The thrilling point, part of a 46-4 edge in winners for Federer, brought him to deuce and the crowd to its feet, another electrifying moment at a place where he has won five of his 16 grand slam titles.
''I felt like this one was incredible again,'' Federer said.
''I turned around and couldn't believe the shot landed in the corner. The ovation was fantastic. Crowd went wild. You could see on my reaction that I couldn't believe it.''
Federer never even saw the shot that lifted him to deuce, although Dabul would eventually hold his serve in the game.
''I had good contact, perfect speed and hit and everything,'' Federer said. ''I hit it with it lower because then I can generate more pace off it. By the time I turned around it's already in the corner of the court on the other side.''
