You’ve never seen me dance, have you?
ROGER FEDERERYou’ve never seen me dance, have you?
ROGER FEDERERI don’t know how you can go through a four-hour match with Rafa and he never gets a time violation.
ROGER FEDEREROne of my big, big strengths I think early on in my career was that I could learn very quickly. You wouldn’t have to tell me the things 10 times or 50 times until I would understand them. You would only have to tell me two or three times.
ROGER FEDERERBeing down match point, it’s just not fun.
ROGER FEDERERSuccess is a nice thing because it always means you’ve taken a step forward and it gives you a sense of pride, which in turn gives you confidence and experience-a positive circle, so to speak.
ROGER FEDEREREvery match I go into, I’m the huge favorite. I lose a set and it’s, like, crazy.
ROGER FEDERERI have two lives, and all the problems I might have, I feel like I drop them once I step on to the match court.
ROGER FEDERERI’m at the top of my game so, when I win or lose, I don’t freak out…I don’t think we can call it a rivalry yet. There’s just to many great players around.
ROGER FEDERERClearly, when you win everything, it’s fun. That doesn’t necessarily mean you love the game more.
ROGER FEDERERThe serve, I think, is the most difficult, you know, in terms of coordination, because you got the two arms going, and you got to toss it up at the right time so.
ROGER FEDERERSeriously. I’m not playing to prove anything to journalists. I’m playing for myself, for my fans,to make people happy.
ROGER FEDERERI had a nice dinner. I let the evening unfold, flow. I like to sit in a chair with a wine glass. When I woke up, I thought, ‘Why didn’t I go to bed at 11?’ I came back at 3 and went to bed at 5.
ROGER FEDERERIt doesn’t need to be the same every day, doesn’t need to be the same shower I use, the same restaurant I go to, the same hour I go to sleep. I’ve always been very flexible. I don’t care if I practice at nine in the morning or 10 P.M.
ROGER FEDERERWith all the injury problems we have in men’s tennis at the moment, I’m happy to still be standing.
ROGER FEDERERMy family is the thing I miss most on the tour.
ROGER FEDEREROh, my God, I don’t think any player can look forward to or expect to a career of so many Grand Slam wins or title wins or being so long at the top of the game.
