Re: RF Tennis News 2018
Quite right, Marcia! And I think that we should be very proud that after 20 years as a Pro and 99 titles, Roger is still part of the best matches of the year, win or lose!
Who would have thought of that two years ago?!

Re: RF Tennis News 2018
I agree "Cromar", we must count our blessings. After all these years, we still have the luxury of watching him play his dance and dazzle tennis and still are enjoying the happy beginnings of new tournaments, the excitement in anticipation of his next appearance, checking out his outfit, awaiting the interview and agonizing over his draw before the drama of the competition begins. The Living Legend goes on and on giving generously and I feel so privileged and thankful to our evergreen Champion King Roger.

Re: RF Tennis News 2018
Yes, Marcia and cromar, he is the Gold Standard! Oh, that gentleman, the writer David Foster Wallace, was so right when he said that watching Roger play is like having a religious experience. And remmeber that sign in a Wimbledon Church some years ago--still keeping with the Wallace tone--that stated God Made Roger Federer. Did not that say it perfectly?
As applicable now as it was then.
Dear Cromar, are you slowly getting ready to dance? And Marcia, always take care, please.

Re: RF Tennis News 2018
A return to World No. 1 after five years, a 20th Grand Slam title and a journey to the precipice of 100 career titles, Roger Federer has enjoyed a fruitful 2018. This is his story...
The Story Of Roger's Season...
20th Major
Federer begins 2018 the same way he began 2017, by winning (for the sixth time) the Australian Open, which becomes his second most successful major after Wimbledon. It is his 20th Grand Slam title. More...
Back To No. 1
After winning Rotterdam, Federer returns to World No. 1 more than five years after he last sat stop the ATP Rankings. At 36, he is the oldest No. 1 in history. More...
Record Pace
Federer starts with a personal-best 17-0 record on the 2018 season before Juan Martin del Potro ends the party with a third-set tie-break win in the final of Indian Wells. More...
Working Vacation
Making good use of his break during the clay swing, Federer visits children in Zambia who are supported by the Roger Federer Foundation. More...
Rust, What Rust?
After skipping the grass season, Federer doesn't miss a beat after his 11-week layoff, returning in Stuttgart to capture his 98th title. More...
Grass Record
During Wimbledon, Federer sets a new record for most career grass-court wins, moving to 176 wins, two more than Jimmy Connors. More...
12th Halle Final
Federer reaches a 12th Gerry Weber Open final, but is denied a 10th title in Halle by Borna Coric. More...
Fifth-Set Thrillers
Five-set thrillers are as much a part of Roger Federer's Wimbledon folklore as his record eight titles. His 13-11 fifth-set loss to Kevin Anderson this year added to the story. More...
US Open Shock
Struggling in oppressively humid conditions, Federer suffers a stunning loss to Australian John Millman in the fourth round of the US Open. More...
Sweet 16
During the US Open it's announced that both Novak Djokovic and Federer qualify for the Nitto ATP Finals. It's the 16th time for the Swiss. More...
That's A Lot Of Pizzas!
It's time for the customary ballkids' pizza party as former ballkid Federer wins his 9th title on home soil in Basel, and 99th title overall. More...

Re: RF Tennis News 2018
I haven't read this last talk with Peugeot , but I surely will! Very good to have this chronological and colourful and personally approachable update on Roger's years. Indeed, it has been a wonderful year!
Really, this is the best way to summarize the year, put it in the focus of a fan, and don't make it sound official but like an "indsider's" view, as it suits our feelings, or mine, at least! Thank you!
