Willis one of best stories ever. FEDERER

Marcus Willis has captured the imagination of many tennis fans around the world, Roger Federer, his next opponent, is one of them.

 

What happened?

Ranked world no.772, Willis, 25, was about to leave the sport five months ago as he was planning to take up a coaching role in the USA. Eventually, his lovely girlfriend convinced him to keep on trying, and Marcus surprised everyone after qualifying for the main draw in Wimbledon. The Brit went even further to reach the second round after a great win over Berankis (6-3 6-3 6-4), and now he will face the supreme Roger Federer on center court. Interesting enough, before Wimbledon, Willis has won just 258 pounds in 2016, and now he has already amassed 55,000 pounds after reaching the second round of the Championships.

Willis one of best stories ever. FEDERER

Roger shared his kind thoughts about this story to comment “It is what our sport needs,” he said. “Where guys come from nowhere. We have had a hard time producing those players, and I am really looking forward to playing him. I think it is one of the best stories in a long time in our sport. His story unbelievable and it just shows the depth of men’s tennis. It is a huge moment for him. It is big for me.”

Federer knows that, this time, he will not be the crowd favorite “Naturally they are going to support him and rightfully so,” he said. “It is going to make the match difficult. It is going to be interesting. Rankings only tell so much of the story. He probably should be higher. Plus he is serve and volleying, which I love to see. To beat a guy of Berankis’s caliber shows you how tough he is.”

This is a match not to miss.
