Federer: Mauresmo was a great choice for Murray

Andy Murray hiring Amelie Mauresmo was one of the most interesting stuff of the recent months in the tennis world.

It has always been controversial if a male player should also pick up a female as the two games a rather different. Obviously Murray didn’t think that that mattered too much.

Roger: It’s a great choice, time will tell

The ESPN asked to Roger Federer his opinion about this “There were rumours in Paris about them working together. I think it is very interesting. I think it’s great and only time will tell if it is going to be successful or not,

But Andy has always been open to try out things or go in a different direction with Ivan Lendl, with Brad Gilbert as well and now with Amelie Mauresmo. I remember being at the Champion’s dinner with her at one of my Wimbledon victories.

I always enjoyed watching her play and she is a true professional. So from that standpoint, I think it’s a great choice and I hope they’re going to be a successful team together.”

As Roger said, time will tell…
