What's the biggest difference between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal? It isn't their biceps or their backhands or the state of their knees. It's their respective outlooks on life. Listen to what each had to say at his pre-tournament news conference in Montreal this weekend.

Here's Federer on how he'll stay motivated after breaking the all-time Grand Slam record: "Yeah, it's not a problem. Really, I'm so excited to be back on tour. I've been very motivated, practicing really hard the last few weeks, and that's why I'm back on tour. Otherwise, I would be still stuck at home doing something else than answering questions and practicing and playing matches. But I felt like I was ready to go, I was fresh and in the mood to travel again." Translation: It's good to be me.

Roger Federer became only the sixth man to achieve the career Grand Slam and equalled Pete Sampras’ record of 14 majors by defeating Robin Soderling in straight sets in Sunday’s men’s final. Relive every game of this historic match right here.

7.25 pm: Well, did you enjoy the tournament? I certainly did. We had drama throughout and then two worthy winners. Saturday’s women’s final maybe left us wanting more but I’m sure Dinara will be back and get stronger mentally, while it was great to see Svetlana finally follow up her 2004 US Open title with her second major here.
