should stop. should quit while he's ahead. should be too slow. should be too tired. should be too old to be #1. should be history.
But Federer is too busy making it.
Federer Forever.#Nike

He is the standard. The unattainable genius.

20 years ago, a 16 year-old Roger Federer was building towards junior Wimbledon. He won it. Singles and doubles. He made his pro debut a week later.
— David Law (@DavidLawTennis) February 17, 2018
20 years on, his love for the game is as unconditional as it was then. Tonight, he became the sportβs oldest singles No.1.

Roger Federer is World number 1 again at the age of 36. What an inspiration this man is for everyone who loves and plays any sport.

Roger Federer, welcome back to number one.
— Adam Peacock (@adampeacock3) February 16, 2018
He's back there as Drake has the number one single.
When Federer was first number one, Drake was still in Degrassi High.

The time difference between the last time Federer was no 1 to this time when he's back at that position is 5 years 3 months.

That in one line tells you what Federer is about. Sheer resilience & never say die spirit. Always coming back. Never give up. Never say die.

For his next trick, Federer will play squash. Left handed. #IsThereAnythingHeCannotDo
