I am a sucker for those old traditional places, and Rome is as good as it gets, particularly when you throw in Italian food.

ROGER FEDERERI don’t know how you can go through a four-hour match with Rafa and he never gets a time violation.
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 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.
ROGER FEDERERThere is no way around the hard work. Embrace it.
ROGER FEDERERSimple version for me is, umm, started bad and finished bad basically.
ROGER FEDERERThe nicer the point, the more — the better I feel, the more excited I get. But I never play that my opponent looks stupid. I think that is wrong. I have too much respect for every opponent I play.
ROGER FEDEREREarly in my career, I struggled with consistency, but I couldn’t get more consistent than this year.
ROGER FEDERERHopefully I can just have another terrible year with only the one Grand Slam and that will be just fine.
ROGER FEDERERI was aware of how incredible the match was. Unfortunately there had to be a winner. From my point of view many left feeling sorry for me instead of being happy for Rafa. Which hurts.
ROGER FEDERERYou can be stubborn and successful or you can give it up a bit and change things around. For me it’s important to have a bit of both.
ROGER FEDERERI have learnt to be even more patient.
ROGER FEDERERWhen you’re good at something, make that everything
ROGER FEDERERNo, I’m not (disappointed). There’s no reason to be because I’m on an incredible run. You always expect a loss once in a while. So when it happens, why be disappointed if I win over 90% of my matches.
ROGER FEDERERI’m proud to be a symbol like the army knife or the mountains.
ROGER FEDERERI always believe if you’re stuck in a hole and maybe things aren’t going well you will come out stronger. Everything in life is this way.
