Federer: “No breaks anymore in 2017”

Roger Federer has enough about practice: he wants to win on court!

The Swiss Maestro got a long break after winning Miami, and it seems he has enough of being away from the tour.

I want to be a champ on court. FEDERER

During a recent interview with  ATPWorldTour.com, the Swiss legend sounded impatient to get back to competitions to comment

“There are no more breaks now. I’ve had enough breaks. I’m a practice world champion now, and that’s not who I want to be. I want to be a champ on the match courts. So I’m going to be playing a regular schedule for the second part of the season… And this is the beginning here at the MercedesCup in Stuttgart.

I was terribly surprised to win the Australian Open and to back it up and win the sunshine double in Indian Wells, and Miami was a complete surprise to me.

I think Rafa winning the French Open is less of a surprise because he’d done it nine times before… I was hoping he was going to dominate the clay-court season like the olden days.

But I’m still surprised we were able to do it. It maybe had something to do with Murray having a bit of a letdown after his great finish to last year and Novak not playing his absolute best. We were able to take advantage of the fact that we were in great shape and came refreshed into the season after our injuries at the end of last year.”

Roger is currently ranked no.5 in the “traditional” rankings and no.2 in the Year to Date rankings. He has already won the Australian Open, Indian Wells, and Miami and he is ready for more glory.
