Just realized that if it were not for Federer, Djokovic would be going for his 9th consecutive Grand Slam final at the 2013 U.S. Open.
Federer is the only male player in the open era to reach all four grand slam finals in two different years, even more amazing to do it two consecutive years. If it were not for Federer, Djokovic would have achieved this in 2011-2012. Sadly, being on opposite halfs of the draw (such a rarity), Federer can not deny Djokovic another final at this year's U.S. Open.
