At 34 years of age Roger Federer is still very interested in constantly improving his game. Even if Novak Djokovic is the biggest hurdle for Roger, the Maestro confesses that he is not obsessed about beating him.
Federer. I focus on my own game
During a recent interview Roger stated “I’m always on the lookout for how to play certain players or certain tournaments or about my own game. So Novak might be a small piece of the puzzle, but it wasn’t the piece. I’m more focused about my own game than any other player.
Last year I did quite well against Novak. Of course, I got to keep it up. I always believe there’s new things you can learn, but there’s always sometimes a way of staying motivated, staying hungry.
Someone like Ivan [Ljubicic] can also help do that. But I can do a lot by myself, but I need my support team to push me the last one per cent, five per cent, 10 per cent, whatever it is, because I’m not in the same mood every single day.”
Roger and Nole have played 44 times. Head to head is 22-all.
