波特羅（Juan Martin del Potro）歷經五盤大戰，終結球王費德勒（Roger Federer）連續六年稱霸美網的夢想，奪得個人生涯第一座大滿貫獎杯。

20歲的阿根廷好手以3：6、7：6（5）、4：6、7：6（4）、6：2擊敗費天王，中止個人對戰球王的六連敗，也讓費德勒美網連霸數字停留在「5」。

球王於第四盤本有絕佳機會摘下生涯第16座大滿貫冠軍，面對首度打進大滿貫決賽的波特羅，費德勒就差兩分，讓到手的勝利飛了。

費德勒丟掉第四盤後開始頻頻抱怨裁判、腳步也顯得無力，最重要的是，球王的雙誤實在太多，費天王找不到方法阻止身高6呎6吋的波特羅，只能眼見他一記又一記的正拍穿越身旁，於關鍵的第五盤將勝利帶走。

費德勒過去34場大滿貫賽贏了33場，18次大滿貫賽他打了17次決賽，生涯更有21次進入最後一場比賽的紀錄，但面對前一天橫掃「西班牙蠻牛」納達爾（Rafael Nadal）的波特羅，球王五盤大戰後認栽。

直到這場比賽之前，費德勒20次打入大滿貫決賽幾乎所向無敵，僅對上納達爾時佔不了便宜（2勝5敗），不過波特羅面對這樣強勁的對手，竟顯得不為所動，只是打好自己的比賽。

反倒是一向鎮定的球王，這場比賽和主審賈納（jake Garner）有了激烈爭執，更語出不遜的告訴主審：「別告訴我安靜點，我想講話的時候，我就是要說話。」

波特羅成為1977年維拉斯（Guillermo Vilas）之後，首位拿下美網冠軍的阿根廷選手，維拉斯14日也到場觀賞這歷史性的一刻。
