Roger Federer had a rather tricky week. The Swiss Maestro has managed to reach the final in Brisbane (lost to Raonic), but things were tricky on Tuesday since Roger had to battle against a nasty cold.
Federer. I still struggle …
During the press conference after the final, Roger commented “I’m very happy how the first week went. We just discussed quickly the week. We were both thrilled that I got to play as many matches as I did here this week, because we saw how bad I was doing on Tuesday.
I’ve still got a cough and the throat is a bit weird. Definitely got to make sure I get over it as quickly as possible. As long as I keep on playing and doing all that stuff it’s not going to go away faster. So I am going to rest up tomorrow. I also have to see, but then probably hit the practice courts again. In practice you can manage how hard you’re going to do it. Obviously health is No. 1.
… I should recover
Then Roger added “The good thing is the off-season was great. I have a base there, so I think within three to four days I should be back at 100 per cent, if things progress normally, which I think they are now.”
Let’s hope to have the Maestro at his 100% in Melbourne.
