Federer Future In Discussion
There have been a lot of discussions happening about Roger Federer’s future these days especially after the defeat of the Swiss legend in the final of the Wimbledon Championships.
While, some people have started to write him off, the others think that he is still good enough to add one or two titles to his Grand Slam tally.
The people who are backing Federer to be able to achieve glory again at the Grand Slam level have their reasons to do so.
Although Federer has not won too many titles this season, he has been playing far better than how he had played last season.
Federer has been to the title round of as many as 6 tournaments so far in 2014 and it clearly shows that he’s been consistent. This consistency was not there in his game in 2013. Not only was he getting beaten by the top players last year, he was suffering defeats against the lower ranked guys as well.
This year, at least, Federer has not been the victim of horrible upsets. Secondly, most of his defeats of late have been narrow ones. In the Wimbledon final too, he wasn’t outplayed by Djokovic. He had pushed the Serbian to the limits and had things gone slightly in his favour during the dying moments of the match, he would probably have pulled that match off.
So, Federer’s fans have all the reasons to keep their belief in him, but, it’s also true that with Nadal and Djokovic around and that too at their peak, it would take a hell of an effort from the Swiss maestro to lift another slam trophy.
There would be many eyes on Federer at Flushing Meadows towards the end of the ongoing season.
