I'm glad you guys all like this video (even if you've seen it before.) I'm assuming this is from the BBC, right? Hi everyone! I’m glad you guys all like this video (even if you’ve seen it before.)

I'm going to try to find it. So glad Mirka's getting some props. She's definitely much more than a "tennis girlfriend." And it's cool that Roger makes sure to give her credit for everything she does.

I'm impressed with how you can find such wonderful stuff for us. I agree with Eve that Roger is at his best in interviews like this one. He was so thoughtful about his success, about what it means to him -- not wanting records to possess them and beat out someone else, but to see how far he can go. I also like how much he appreciates the reaction he gets from crowds around the world. He must feel that he is living a charmed life -- as indeed he is. As Roddick said, he deserves everything he gets. Great video, ff. I’m impressed with how you can find such wonderful stuff for us.

It's such a great interview, he's so relaxed the way he just wanders in lol. =D Thanks for posting I think that says it all after all the haters that have been spouting.

There's something special about Roger chatting with his colleagues and peers, his whole way of expressing himself become so much more natural and relaxed. There's a lovely honesty to to him here, especially when he talks about not quite believing he's part of the "Golden Quartet". But I think my favourite part is when Becker says "glückwünsche" (congratulations) and gives Roger a wee bum pat :) (around 0:36) Thanks for this – I watched it on TV but it’s great to be able to see it again.
