I'm aware that Novak had to do something extremely special to get past me. Same thing for Rafa. I think we all had to do something very special to get past each other in the rankings. I think that's a good thing.

He's come out with some quality quotes this past week, "I'd rather be 30 than 20"
ReplyDeleteYes. AND HE SHOULD NEVER CHANGE.
ReplyDeleteWhy would he want to be 20 though? The dude accomplished absolutely everything, I wouldn't want to be 20 and unsure of your future when you are 30, have a great family, did so much in terms of your career and are super rich... And I don't think he said anything untrue. Let's all face it that the guy raised the level of this game incredibly, and that is why the top 4 are so strong, because they make each other work harder. Case in point, women's tour, which has absolutely no defined leader and the tournaments just go whichever way the wind blows...
