Dear fellows, tennis legend Roger Federer is having a magnificent season.
I am a fan of his arch rival, former world no 1, 14 times grand slam champion Rafael Nadal.
But I like Federer as well.
Many , and I as well, doubted whether Federer would win another slam.
His last win was in 2012!
( Before this year’s Australian Open).
Federer became the oldest grand slam champion since 1972.
And now just now federer won Indian Wells, a major ATP 1000 tournament.
He leads the 2017 ATP race, with a huge gap of 1410 points from second placed
Nadal.
I admire Federer’s staying power, that he manages to remain fit and relevant at 35.

Federer is one of (greatest?) the best tennis players in the modern era, and his rivalry with Nadal is right up there with the McEnroe/Borg rivalry.
I do hope he wins the Slam this year.

even when I was a teenager everybody would laugh and talk about McEnroe always yelling and throwing fits. makes me smile to watch him.
Federer and Nadal I think I saw them play a couple years ago?

McEnroe was a master at putting english (spinning) on his shots.
Yeah, McEnroe did throw fits (I also liked his fits).
