SAN DIEGO -- Rod Lavers grand accomplishment wont be duplicated for another year, and hes as surprised as anyone.Since?Novak Djokovic lost to Sam Querrey on Saturday in the third round at Wimbledon, Djokovic cant match Lavers run of winning a Grand Slam in a calendar year.Laver, who was attending the Yankees-Padres game on Saturday night, is the last player to win all four majors in a single calendar year, doing it for the second time in 1969.The 77-year-old Laver couldnt believe Djokovic stumbled, losing 7-6 (6), 6-1, 3-6, 7-6 (5).I am still totally surprised that Querrey beat him, Laver said. I still thought he could pull it off.Instead the No. 1-ranked Djokovic, who won this years Australian Open and French Open, was ousted in a match that took two days because of rain delays. Djokovic, the two-time defending Wimbledon champion, needed to win Wimbledon and the U.S. Open to join Laver and Don Budge as the only men to claim the calendar-year Grand Slam.Djokovic won four straight majors, but not in a calendar year.He just wasnt himself, something was off, Laver said. I think maybe he felt winning all four titles and being the defending champion of all four was a Grand Slam in his mind.And so even if it wasnt in the calendar year, it didnt matter. Way back in there somewhere you are thinking one thing, that it doesnt matter, but you are thinking it does matter. Those are two different thoughts to have when you are playing.Laver thought after all these years someone would have joined him and Budge.Im still happy to have the title, but I dont own it, Laver said. I would have liked to have been at the US Open and be the first to shake Djokovics hand if he did it. Don Budge did that for me in 1962 at Forest Hills.What did he say?Welcome to an exclusive club, Laver said.Its one that wont admit another member this year.Merril Hoge Jersey .

The Chicago Blackhawks goaltender cracked jokes about his glove hand and already seemed to be over his roughest start of these playoffs, when he was beaten five times on 33 shots by the Boston Bruins. He quipped that during the Western Conference final there was criticism of his blocker side so "both sides are bad, I guess." And even though a weakness was exposed, Crawfords confidence isnt shaken going into Game 5 Saturday night. "I think its something you have to learn from," Crawford said. "If that wouldve happened in junior, I think I wouldve been pretty deflated, and my confidence wouldve been pretty low. I think its something you build over time and something you learn from." It was no secret the Bruins kept shooting glove-side Wednesday, and the 26-year-old deflected the notion that he has a weakness that could derail Chicagos championship hopes. Crawford also acknowledged that adjustments might be necessary. Even this late in a run, its possible that he and goaltending coach Stephane Waite fix some mechanics before Crawford goes back in net. "Sometimes you need your goalie coach to look and see," Crawford said. "As a goalie, its tough sometimes to really know if youre fine, if theres nothing to change or if theres something to change. Sometimes you need that extra set of eyes to figure that out for you." His teammates tested him out at practice Friday. "I tried today and he stopped me glove side, so hopefully hes got it all figured out," left-winger Patrick Sharp said. "I dont know if that was the game plan or if thats something they did on purpose and they were successful at it, but I like Corey in there." So does coach Joel Quenneville, who insisted he was not considering replacing Crawford with backup Ray Emery, who hasnt played in almost two months. Crawford is the man for the Blackhawks. "In our room he hasnt taken any heat, so I dont know whats being said out there," defenceman Duncan Keith said. "You look at the job hes done all season for us, hes been great all year long. I thought we let in five, and they let in six. I mean, we won the game and well move on." Crawford moved on almost immediately. Rather than dissect how he gave up five goals in Game 4, he was "thrilled" about the victory and defenceman Brent Seabrooks game-winner. From the Bruins, there were plenty of denialss that they solved Crawford.dddddddddddd "I know were not skating down the ice thinking, Oh my God, if we dont go glove-side were not going to score. Nothing like that," forward Shawn Thornton said. "I think its just a bit of coincidence. Were trying to get pucks on net from everywhere and create traffic and wherever that rebound pops out, Im sure youre trying to put it in." That the Bruins put the puck in five times could make Crawford think a lot about last game. Instead, hes trying to keep excess worrying to a minimum. "Theres times when you think about a game more than others," he said. "But at this point, I really dont want to be thinking too much about the last game, whether it was good or bad." The last game wasnt good. But it was good enough to help Chicago tie the series at 2. Of course that did not mean Crawford was immune from criticism. "I think that the scrutiny of goaltending at any stage of the season is at a different level of any other player, and I guess its even more out there now that youre in the final," Quenneville said. "But Corey just seems to move forward whatever the challenge is, the next shot, the next game. Hes excited about the opportunity. Were excited about what he accomplished. He won a big game for us, and thats where were at." Crawford is there, too. Experience, he said, helped him realize that he cant let one bad performance affect his psyche. "Situations youve gone through -- a similar situation like that where you just collapse and you probably lose the game -- you just learn from that and dont feel like its the end of the world," he said. It could be the end of the line for the Blackhawks if the Bruins manage to light him up in the same fashion for the rest of the series. "I think you can score on other areas, hopefully, on Corey Crawford, than just the glove," Boston coach Claude Julien said. "At the end of the day youre looking to find ways to score goals, whether its cross passes, tips, screens or whatever, it doesnt really matter." As much as the Bruins had success beating Crawford in Game 4, one knows yet whether that will have a carry-over effect. "Thats the thing: Everyone thinks (theyre) going to shoot to the glove," Sharp said. "Its not like Corey can start cheating glove side, because those guys are such good shooters they can pick him apart. Who knows if thats a once-in-a-lifetime type of game of if theyve figured something outid. "Its not like Corey can start cheatin' ' '
