Roger Federer saved match points to win a Grand Slam match for the first time in his career on Thursday night in New York, and, thanks to Twitter, we’re in the know. Read on to find out a whole lot more about Federer’s 9th comeback from two sets down (8th at a major):

1. Mic Drop! Best. Vine. Ever.



2. Amazing. Federer is tied for second-all time in comebacks from two sets down at majors. Does he have one more in him? Dare we say two?



3. Learn something new every day on Twitter.




4. Seen this before but it’s always good for more than a few laughs.



5. Nobody was rooting for Gael in NY. The guy drinks Coca-Cola on changeovers and he can’t get no love?




6. If you saw this live, you definitely shredded a groin and sprained an ankle. Even the screen cap hurts.

 


7. Nice shoes, Rog.

 




8. Beautiful perspective shot. Love this.




9. Monf took care of the entertaining, Fed took care of the winning.



10. When you have 17 Slams, 5 US Opens, 8 comebacks from two sets down in majors and really cool shoes, you always get the girl.



11. Dunno if we saw it coming. Well, until the match points were saved.



12. Let’s all get some sleep now…
