Roger Federer is a happy man right now. At 33 years of age, the Swiss is playing one of his best tennis, he has regained the world no.2 spot and he is going to try to end 2014 as the no.1.
After the “regular” season, Roger will give a shot at the IPTL, Bhupathi’s International Premier Tennis League, to play for the Indian Aces. This will give the opportunity to Roger to visit India.
Roger: I can’t wait to walk out the court
Federer commented “I can’t wait to walk out on to the court, to see the fans, feel the energy. It’s an honor and a privilege. Playing in India is something I’ve always dreamt of. But again my India trip will be so much more than just tennis. That’s India really. It’s got to be more than just tennis.”
Roger decided to join after Nadal withdrew for health concerns “I hadn’t originally signed up for the IPTL, that part of the year was already busy for me and I thought that it would be better to wait out the first year and see how it goes,” Roger commented . “Then suddenly this opportunity came up and I thought why not? It fits perfectly, right in the middle of my training. I wasn’t going to change my training schedule radically, because obviously I’m looking to get ready for the next season. I play in Delhi and then I go back to training and then I play my charity match with Stan in Switzerland. It all fits perfectly.”
Roger will play in New Delhi from December the 6th to the 8th. That is going to be interesting.
