You know what makes Federer great? Or should i ask, what makes him one of the greatest, if not the greatest of all time? Let me answer that for you: his prolonged athleticism coupled with matchless perseverance and enduring health. Federer, unlike most contemporaries on the court, has mastered the art of causing least amount of damage to his body. He somehow has managed to remain fit throughout his career. There have been very few instances where his health ditched him. He might be 34 now but that shouldn’t a concern. He is bound to stick around. One of the main reasons why he’s adored by the likes of Laver, Borg and Sampras is they all know he’s the last of his tribe. He’s the perfect balance of gust and grace. As the intensity of power play kept going up with more and more baseliners making their presence felt, Federer continued doing what he does best: stay effortless and highly artistic. Maybe that’s why giant servers like Karlovic and Isner are just that in front of him — giant servers. Of course, there’s no denying that Djokovic is the toast of the season and he’s going to last for a really long time. But then that’s pure speculation, right? After all, we never thought Nadal would slow down thanks to his overworked pair of knees.
