Last weekend Roger Federer beat Fernando Gonzalez to win the Australian Open title. The Swiss Master did not drop a single set in the tournament. The last player to win a major without losing a set was Bjorn Borg, in the 1980 French Open. Who did Borg defeat in the final?

Good guess, but no. It was Andy Murray in cinncinati last year, in the second round, I believe.
