Fan gives Federer fright in French finale

PARIS: Stunned and shaken, Roger Federer stood on center court during the French Open final wondering if the intruder who had just run up to him was for real.

Sadly, he was. But luckily for the Swiss great, it didn't stop him from tying Pete Sampras' career record of 14 major titles or from completing a career Grand Slam.

"All of a sudden I heard the crowd, and I looked over and he jumped over the fence or something," said Federer, who beat Robin Soderling of Sweden 6-1, 7-6 (1), 6-4 Sunday in the final at Roland Garros. "That gave me a fright, just, like, seeing him so close right away."
