Lightening does strike twice! Roger Federer repeated last year’s “greatest shot” on Monday night in Arthur Ashe stadium during his first round match vs. Argentine journeyman Brian Dabul.

Thanks to GTT reader/commenter Nusi for finding and posting this awesome video in the comments section. Frites thinks this is real and amazing.

Wow, what a freaking match! Roger Federer beat Tomas Berdych – just barely – in the the quarterfinals of Toronto’s Rogers Cup on Friday night:  6-3, 5-7, 7-6 (5). I have to say it was majorly fun to watch live, in the bowl of the stadium, surrounded by a few thousand Fed fanatics. It wasn’t [...]

Roger Federer and his new coach Paul Annacone took to the Rogers Cup practice courts at around 4:30 pm this afternoon.  Gael Monfils was a court away, playing a loosey goosey game of futbol tennis with a couple friends (Meanwhile, La Monf’s doubles partner, Philipp Kohlschreiber, was deep in the third set vs. Rafael Nadal [...]

Thank to Fed-watcher Judy for forwarding the heads up on this! Winning Wimbledon, beating Pete’s record, taking the career Slam – Roger Federer has reached and surpassed many of his goals. And now he’s set the bar even higher: to end his career with four more Major titles, for a total of (at least) 20. [...]
