Roger Federer will resume the hunt to become the number one player in 2013 – Tennis News
World number two, Roger Federer, registered yet another fantastic year in 2012 with six titles. He won the trophy at the ABN AMRO at Rotterdam, Dubai Duty Free Championships, BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells, Mutua Madrid Open
and the Wimbledon. However, there is a ray of hope for the other players as the Swiss Maestro was unable to defend the number one ranking from the Serb superstar, Novak Djokovic.
Some people believe that there is no hope for the Swiss Maestro to return back to the number one spot again because the 25-year-old Serb star is ruling the show at the moment. However, there is no doubt that the ability of the
right-handed Swiss star is unmatched and equally capable of capturing the number one spot again in 2013. Let’s look at some of the quotes that show the Swiss’s love for game of tennis.
Once the 31-year-old stated, “I enjoyed the position I was in as a tennis player. I was to blame when I lost. I was to blame when I won. And I really like that, because I played soccer a lot too, and I couldn't stand it when I
had to blame it on the goalkeeper.” He doesn’t hate criticism because he gains more positives from that. It is not in his capacity to control the game style of opposition and the depletion of stamina that automatically comes with the aging factor, however,
the pure example of class is permanent can be found in him.
He also said, “When you do something best in life, you don't really want to give that up - and for me it's tennis.” It is not only a sport for the Swiss star but a method of life. How can he leave something that fascinates him
to the level infinity? However, he accepted the fact that his number one rank will not last for long as he was reported to have said, “I can't stay No. 1 for fifty years, you know. We'll see what happens.” It is always helpful to revert back to history where
Federer was unbeatable and young. He can still attain that if he manages to overcome the initial onslaught of his arch rivals.
