So it’s time to take a little moment to reflect on what’s happened to Roger Federer. He’s in a real pickle now. Nadal beat him last weekend in the Australian Open. Nadal seems to be taking a distinct advantage in their rivalry. Is Federer past his prime? He seems to think so, if his breakdown during the ceremony at Sydney is any indication. While they were handing out the awards, he started crying and really couldn’t stop. Nadal has beat him several times in the last few months and especially over the last year or so. It seems like Rog has lost his stride and his confidence. He’s gotta just keep plugging it out, but it’s getting tough for him.

The Wimbledon Lawn tennis Championships is all set to begin today in London and all eyes are on the reigning men’s champion Roger Federer who is in pursuit of his sixth consecutive Wimbledon crown. There are plenty of rumors circulating in the media about his current form. There are also debates among many former players on whether he would be able to stamp his authority once more on his favorite grand slam event, the Wimbledon. Even though Federer has struggled with his form in the past few months, his fans are pretty confident of him lifting the Wimbledon title for the record sixth time and are buying tickets to watch their super hero in action.

Roger Federer, the world’s number one tennis player, came up trumps in the final match of the Gerry Weber Open against Philipp Kohlschreiber virtue of a 6-3, 6-4 win and thereby won his 55^th title of his career. Another amazing thing about this great tennis player is that his command over grass courts are so immaculate that he has so far won 59 consecutive games on grass. Federer was happy to clinch the tournament after a disappointing final defeat at the French Open by clay court king Rafael Nadal. Federer hopes to carry this form into the Wimbledon Championships and fans who had bought tickets in advance for the Wimbledon Championships will be in for some superlative performances by this great player.
