yep a class of his own ...

will miss him

Roger Federer : Definition of Tennis

Rafa Nadal: Gladiator of Tennis ... fighting spirit of epic proportions

Djokovic: Terminator of Tennis ... ( even though he knows that he will lose the grand slam number ... still did not bend to get vaccinated ... foolish and steely nerves at the same time) ...

yeah.. I mock at the stupidity of antivaxxers in general. sometimes even scared at the political movement they tried to build around it.

but Novak I can't hate for his stand against vaccine. He took this stand at a huge personal cost and whatever racist bs ideology he's part of, that level of commitment has my appreciation.

Novak have balls of steel. 

He would have got 25 slams easily

Finally he gave up, he is supposed to retire few years ago but dragged at least 3 years. he hasn't been playing grandslams anyway

He said he loves playing the game.. and it is not always about winning major championships… and he will play as long as his body supports..

inka nadal, djoker enti ba.. Alacatraz has arrived.

personally since I have special affection for those tht play single handed backhand, I will watch Lorenzo Musetti with a lot of interest. which means atleast 2,3 times a year max. hehe..

one of the most awesome 2005 matches was Federer vs Safin, Aussie open semis. Safin went on to win the aussie open that year

Federer had one of his best years in 2005. with only 7-8 losses for the whole year. One of them to my all time favourite Richard Gasquet.

you missed Federer's greatest year by a whisker - 2004 :giggle:

ever since he met Nadal in 2005, Federer was not the same again. Fed's form in 2003-05 was scary. almost god level.
