A new video provides a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the final with cameo appearances by Boris Becker, Guy Forget, Academy Award winner Hillary Swank and three-time Roland Garros champion Guga Kuerten, who wipes away a tear watching Djokovic complete a monumental win.

Among many highlights of the seven minute, 47-second video:

*Walking onto Court Philippe Chatrier with the finalists.

*About 50 seconds into the video an eager fan imploring Murray: "Please beat Djokovic, he's too boring. Go to net. He won't suspect it, okay?" "Thanks," an amused Murray replies.

*The on-court sight lines presented from the ball kids point of view.

*The pride in the eyes of Djokovic's parents as they applaud their son's performance.

*A stirring climactic scene shows just how much the title means to the top seed as Djokovic shares emotional embraces with his brother and coach Marián Vajda after becoming the first man in 47 years to hold all four Grand Slam titles simultaneously.
