Britton Makes Most Of U.S. Open Experience

Former Rebel Devin Britton made the most of his experience in his first ever Grand Slam match as a professional. Playing Roger Federer in the first round of the U.S. Open, Britton, the 2009 NCAA Champion, aced him three times in one game in the first set, and broke him twice, once in the second and third sets, respectively. Federer won the match 6-1, 6-3, 7-5, but Britton had a great time despite the loss. A couple hours after the match he tweeted this: "Best time I've ever had losing. Actually best time I've ever had period. Unreal experience. Had a blast. Still pumped even with a loss."
