Something has been bothering me about Roger Federer, a speech he said over a year ago, after a tournament.

Ive been holding it in. LOL.

We all know what an elite talent he is, his records speaks for itself.
Graceful, classic tennis player.

Father, Husband.

Does anyone have any thoughts on him, other than the very obvious, extraordinary tennis player?

Was he funded by the Soros Foundation?

Otherwise I have nothing on him.

Just when you think redemption has already propounded the ultimate wacky CT, we see there is "something" alarmingly suspicious about Wodger. But it isn't revealed.

I bet Djokovic does turn up at the US Open.

Here's the thing that bothered me:

After losing Wimbledon< he said in the post on court speech, "I feel a bit sad, because I want to prove myself to my children"

Mate, you dont love your children by proving how F#cken good you are.
How many tournaments do you have to win, to prove your worth as a Father?

You love your children for what THEY dream, create, do. The EXAMPLE you lead by, is by the love you give THEM, not worrying about your ego and worth, by losing a tournament.

It was actually a psychopathic statement.

I adore the guy. Greatest of all time.
But there is something in him, that stems deeper than winning tournaments.

I am not the only one that paid attention to that very odd statement he made.

I guess after 20 or so Grand Slams it gets hard to offer an original motivation.

I heard he has an injury that rules him out for the rest of the year - could be the end of an incredible career. He is an exemplary sportsman and a gentleman. Redemption is the first person Ive heard say a bad thing about him

Most of the Tennis world display so much good eventually.

Australia's Tournaments are highly rated and I noted quite a few players were very generous to our charity needs during Natural Disaster times .

     thank You all.

I offer free accommodation to Sharapova should she ever need it.

"A protester has entered the tennis court and set his arm on fire during a Laver Cup match in London, hours before Roger Federer's final game before retiring.

Wearing a white shirt with a message about private jets, the man made his way onto the court and sat down near the net.

He set his arm on fire before being carried away by security guards."

The dude wasn't very committed. Soon as he lit his arm up he panicked and tried to put it out.
