After Roger Federer, former world number one, was only on the field at the Qatar ExxonMobil Open in Doha, he is now preparing for the now short season on clay before he reaches his real goal: Wimbledon, of course, where he will defend the 2019 final and has to challenge the opponents much more than two years ago.
Marc Rossets Worte
During a new interview with the microphones of the magazine ‘Illustré’ on the occasion of the ATP 250 tournament in Geneva, the former Swiss Top 10 Marc Rosset spoke about Federer’s future resignation, who will blow out his 40 candles next August: “Do you remember that last game by Boris Becker or Andre Agassi? Apart from the die-hard fans and crazy people like me, I’m sure the rest of the people forgot these matches.
We only remember Boom-Boom Becker or the kid from Las Vegas. I don’t think Roger likes the idea of breaking out of the top 20 and going to a tournament in Turkey for fun or anywhere else.
The only thing I don’t want is that an injury forced him to retire because it would be really painful. “Rosset then named the three greatest players in the history of our sport:” Along with Nadal and Djokovic has Federer Tennis razed to the ground and the prize pool of every tournament blew up.
Their rivalries were huge and comparable to those like Prost-Senna and Jordan-Bird. In my opinion, Federer and Nadal are like Siamese twins. Because of their simplicity and humility, they bring the same values together for the conception of their sport.
If I saw them fishing together one day, I wouldn’t be so surprised. ”Nadal, who will be 35 years old in a few days, won the BNL Internazionali d’Italia for the tenth time and defeated Djokovic in the final in three sets.
At Roland Garros in Paris, he will try to triumph for the 14th time in his career. Photo credit: CNN International
