Britains Andy Murray has vowed to return even stronger following another heartbreaking loss to Novak Djokovic in a Grand Slam final. Djokovics 3-6 6-1 6-2 6-4 victory in the French Open showpiece on Sunday saw him finally complete his set of slam titles and become just the third player after Don Budge in 1938 and Rod Laver, in 1962 and 1969, to simultaneously hold all four Grand Slam trophies.By reaching his first final at Roland Garros, Murray equalled Fred Perry once more by appearing in his 10th slam final. But, while Perry won eight titles, Murray has lost that many times, five of them to a dominant Djokovic, who he also beat to win the US Open and Wimbledon, and three to Swiss great Roger Federer. Djokovic wins French Open Novak Djokovic beats Andy Murray to win French Open for first time Murray started promisingly by taking the first set in Paris, but the 29-year-old had few answers as Djokovic proceeded to move through the gears on Philippe Chatrier court, and the Scot was reluctant to reflect on the achievement of reaching his first Roland Garros final. Andy Murray was humble in defeat after losing the French Open final in four sets to Novak Djokovic Its such a rare thing to have happened, and obviously the depth in the game just now is strong. Some people may think differently, but the level of tennis I think is pretty high now and something you probably wont see for a long, long time, said Murray. Djokovic (R) completed a career Grand Slam His performances over the last 18 months to two years have been exceptional and he deserves to be number one.The Serb also joined contemporaries Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal in an exclusive eight-man club of players to have completed a career Grand Slam. Novak is truly astonishing Novak Djokovic is in unstoppable form after French Open win over Andy Murray Murray, the 2012 US Open and 2013 Wimbledon champion, admitted he was disappointed to lag behind Federer, Nadal and Djokovic but remained confident of adding to his two major titles.Obviously the guys I have been around the last few years have made things difficult for me. I have been close-ish to winning all of the Slams now and unfortunately all of them have done it instead. But I guess Ive got a few more years to try and do that. I think when I finish I will be more proud of my achievements maybe.None of the big events I have won have I done it without beating one of those guys or a couple of them. So, yeah. Maybe when I finish playing, my achievements will mean a little bit more.Djokovics victory in Paris improved his record against Murray to 24-10, but he vowed to come back stronger and avenge Sundays pain should the pair meet at Wimbledon next month.

Kerry wants to answer your emails at cmonref@tsn.ca. Hi Kerry, In Tuesday nights game between the Canadiens and Predators a high sticking call against the Habs was made and then reversed at around the 10 minute mark of the second when Olli Jokinen was hit by the puck and not Lars Ellers or Christian Thomass stick. The call was only changed after the replay was shown in the Bell Centre and the bench and the crowd voiced their obvious displeasure. Is there any chance that the replay, which I think would have been visible to the refs on the ice, coupled with the crowds reaction could have influenced the referees decision? Thanks, Rob Elbaz Rob: Lets be perfectly candid Rob, there likely isnt an official alive (or any other human being for that matter) who wouldnt take the opportunity to discreetly sneak a peek at the in-house video screen in an effort to gather concrete information on a play. This would be especially true when the crowd erupted once the replay became visible to them. While that may or may not have been the case on this play, there is a policy and procedure in place that was followed to the letter by the game officials on Tuesday night in the Bell Centre that reversed an incorrect double-minor high-sticking penalty that was about to be assessed to Lars Eller. The policy was enacted when, in previous seasons, double-minor high-sticking penalties were assessed only to have replays confirm that a player was either cut by his own stick or by the puck. Subsequently, Hockey Operations and the Officiating Department instituted a policy for the officials to conference if at least one of them could provide contrarry information as to the accuracy of the play gained from their unique perspective.ddddddddddddWe have also seen this procedure utilized when a goal has been allowed or disallowed and the presence of goalie interference is in question. A conference of the officiating crew is often held to accurately determine if a defending player is guilty of shooting the puck over the glass from within his defensive end that would result in a delay of game penalty. In Montreal, the procedure worked perfectly to reverse the initial incorrect call. Crowd reaction to a replay might have certainly been an indicator that a conference of officials was required but the best sightline on this play was gained by linesman Don Henderson from his position on the blue line directly across the ice from the incident. Since the play and puck was close to his line, Henderson was dialed in and able to provide his accurate perspective of the play. Even though sticks from Eller and Thomas were flailing about, Linesman Henderson could confirm to Referee Marc Joannette that the puck had struck Olli Jokinen in the face and not the stick of either Habs player. Since the other referee, rookie Jon McIssac was positioned in close proximity behind the play, he did not raise his arm to call a penalty and most likely shared Hendersons perspective on the play as well. Kudos to this crew of officials for getting the call correctly reversed. The consequences of a double-minor penalty could be a game changer. If the procedure that is in place had failed to reverse this call it might yet be another case for instituting a coachs challenge. Enjoy the All-Star Weekend coverage from Columbus.
