One hailed him few months back as the immortal, uses his raquet as his hand seems to vanish just like that after the mononucleosis. It brought the man from Immortality to mortal. He was defeated again and again even in his own den, Wimbledon. But one must accpet the fact that the tennis he played will be remembered forever. The man is Roger Federer.
What a player considered a dream to win against him seem a little task right now. He streak of loss has put him to NUMBER 2 in ranking...! ! ! one may think is his AGE A FACTOR ? ? ? May be, but this man is struggling for his immortal form in recent times. His loss in wimbledon and in olympics seem to a huge set back. But he regianed his confidence in the Doubles to claim his Gold.
Can Roger consider playing the doubles for now? ? This is the question to be asked to him. but we definetly want to see him in action only in singles to claim his title back as NUMERO UNO which currently belongs to Nadal, the new KING... ehhh, the tennis machine...!
RF has got a tough draw. He may face the same NOVAK as a semi-finalist and then may face again the Nadal in finals. But there is a long way before that. Last season we saw the potential candidate to meet RF in finals but now the scenario is totally different. Anything may happen. Roger is on his way back to US with a doubles Olympic gold in hand while Nadal has got Singles gold and high on confidence after that.
Road may seem rough for Roger but it may not be forever, for he may use his magical wand to get back again as the numero uno anytime. He has done that in the past. He fights and handles situation better than anyother. As Sampras said, "He has the extra gear that nobody has." He may use that gear to win as many matches as before. He is a proven champion. 5 wimbledon titles. Its going to take a lot from Nadal to reach that.
Right now The Lion may be low on confidence but,may pounce on the prey at anytime. The King Of Jungle may return at US open.
