Roger Federer ambitious for more Grand Slams glory in 2013 – Tennis News
Former world number one, Roger Federer, is not done yet and looks hungrier for more titles in 2013. There is not stopping him despite the age number is exceeding beyond the usual for top-ranked athletes. He is 31 years old at the
moment but still one of the best, if not the best in the world. He might have been dethroned by the reigning world number one, Novak Djokovic, at the indoor hard courts of London on Monday but that was just a beginning to another delightful era for him.
In the final of the Barclays Association of Tennis Professionals World Tour Finals, Djokovic edged the Swiss Maestro in straight sets 7-6(6), 7-5 in the O2 Arena that is supposed to be the stronghold of Federer. No one has able
to put aside the might Swiss king from the title campaign for the past two years but the hard fought struggle of the 25-year-old Serb paid off in emphatic fashion.
Federer is the senior most competitors in the category of Top-4 that includes the two age-fellows, Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic, along with a year elder Spanish superhero, Rafael Nadal, who has seven of the last eight French
Open titles at Paris. It is something incredible especially in the era that is extremely competitive. Until the commencement of US Open 2012, the trio of Federer, Nadal and Djokovic had won last 29 of the 30 Grand Slam titles.
However, the rising Briton superstar entered the elite category by breaking a duck at the US Open in New York. He was coming with an Olympics gold medal under his belt with a mighty achievement for anyone who wasn’t considered
threatening enough for the other three rivals. Despite the increase in the competitiveness in the tennis market, the authority of Federer is still intact and he is the man to beat in any tournament.
Federer said in an interview to the media reporters, “I think it’s the love for the game, the appreciation I get from the crowds, I guess playing for records from time to time, playing against different types of generations and
playing styles. I think you need inspiration, motivation from different angles to keep you going because it isn’t that simple just to wake up every morning and go for another travel around the world, another practice, another workout, another stretch.”
The Swiss Maestro is still going strong and therefore doesn’t want to think of any sort of retirement.
