It’s not a mystery that Roger Federer is approaching the end of his monstrous career. The Swiss Legend is still near the top of the rankings (no.2) even if Sascha Zverev is poised to take over his spot as he is leading the Swiss in the year to date rankings.
Why I hope Zverev will be a world no.1. FEDERER
Roger is in very good terms with Sascha, and during a recent interview in Cincinnati he commented
“I hope he can do it, you know.
Clearly, he has a big game and nice technique and good attitude and all that. I think every day that goes by he’s going to learn more and only going to become more stronger.
It’s normal. He will only get better from here. Once he’s past 40 years old, he will start going down again maybe.
Number one is always a big ask. A lot of things need to align for that: consistency, fitness, mental.
So, you make it sound like you just become world number one, like, at will. If you look at who’s been number one, there is not really that many players.
I hope he can do it. I think he’s a great talent.”
Sascha and Roger are the hope favorites to win the ATP1000 in Cincinnati. Seeded no.3, Sascha fell in the top half of the draw while Roger is in the bottom part. This means that they could face each other in the final. That would be great!
IN GREAT TERMS
