Tennis: Can Tim Henman do it?

Tim Henman stands on the brink of his first Grand Slam final this weekend just 13 days after almost withdrawing from the US Open with an injured back.

Henman acknowledged he would have had to pull out had the seedings committee not agreed to push his first-round match against Ivo Karlovic back 24 hours.

Instead the British number one is preparing to face world number one Roger Federer with the prize at stake a final day appearance at Flushing Meadows.

awesome story, hope he makes it!

Well it would be good to actually see him get to a final let alone win one...

Tim Henman's US Open dream died on Saturday as he was simply outclassed by Roger Federer who progresses to the final where he will play Australian Lleyton Hewitt.
