Federer on winning all matches in straight sets: "In a way I prefer it this way, because I wake up walking normally, whereas last year I was like 'oh my God, my back, leg or foot', but pain is good sometimes and those 5-setters, they're so worthwhile, you take them with you."

It's amazing how much Roger Federer manages to seemingly enjoy every aspect of his job, even the ones others find most tedious. That attitude has to be a massive contributor to his longevity.

Antsy Fed. Who says Flinders Station is drawn on his shoes because ‘storytelling in sport is important and trophies aren’t allowed’.
