Rotterdam champ Roger Federer spoke before the tournament about, well, what it’s like to be Roger Federer: dealing with the whole “legend” thing, drinking champagne after losses and dealing with ATP politics: Well we can all use a glass of wine after a tough day at the office, right? Or do you wish he punished [...]

Today he hoisted the silver plate in Rotterdam, an ATP 500 tournament that he hasn’t played since winning it in 2005. He thumped Juan Martin Del [...]
Continue Reading →AP Photo/Peter Dejong via Daylife.com I’m still shocked that Roger Federer is playing in Rotterdam this week, a tournament he hasn’t played since winning it in 2005.

As a late-blooming Masha fan (love the clenched fist, love the [...]
Continue Reading →For all those who missed this endearing ESPN video interview with Rod Laver and Roger Federer. Unfortunately the audio cuts out at the end. but you get the point. Enjoy!
Continue Reading →Wow! Roger played a spectacular quarterfinal match vs. Juan Martin Del Potro in Melbourne. It was billed as a dogfight and instead we got a ballet. How fitting that Federer played his 1000th match (winning his 2000th set in the process) on his own high falootin’ terms. It’s 2:15am where I am and we’re still [...]

I’m still getting my head around the first week, mulling over everything from Andy Roddick’s retirement to the Nalbandian vs. Isner marathon.
