Roger don't worry you will walk it and i bet you­ will win wimbledon this year too.

fed did not say a word about no.1 spot, it was the­ journalist's comment .
i suppose federer knows­ better than anybody else that 5000 ranking points is­ far too much.
and he is deteriorating while the young­ guys (including nadal) are still improving.
however he­ could add some big titles to his collection, but he­ should change tactics.
if he plays the same game­ against nadal than in the last ocassions when he lost­ he can not expect a different outcome.
i would say more­ serve and volley, but his first serve percentage is­ somewhere around (sometimes even below) 50% this­ season.
anyway his feet are not getting faster and­ sometimes his grounstrokes are ailing as well, so i­ would still say: approach the net.

Mba E - for me the Federer race is over. He is not­ going to be no.1 ever again. The crown has been taken­ by Nadal who will reatin it for couple of years until­ he faces the same fate as Federer and every other­ legend - he will be defeated by someone else and step­ down from the throne. To me it is now inevitable that­ Federer will go down. Maybe he settles within top 5 for­ year or two and then move downwards again. What I think­ is the most curious question is the fact that he's­ got the ability to win some good tournaments and some­ drama matches yet.

Recently I found a hot club -- T a l l h u b Co m --­­ just for sexy tall gals and guys to find their­ romance.­ Come on, tall singles. Don't miss your­ love.

I agree, he can win the number one back, but it depends­ how badly he wants it. Nadal, even in practice is­ formiddable, he wants to win every point, not just the­ match. He gets annoyed when his opponant wins a point,­ never mind a game.
So Roger needs to cut out all the­ unforced errors, he can't afford to give Nadal free­ points, he won't be getting any in return thats for­ sure.
With a baby on the way though, how much will he­ want to win, how strong is his desire to be number one­ again? If he manages it, no-one could deny it would be­ an amazing feat, to beat a man who is playing out of­ his skin at the moment. He needs to beat him­ consistantly this year to win back the number one­ ranking, so all the best. I can't see anyone else­ stopping Nadal, so if Roger doesn't find his­ "A" game, it's going to be Nadal for the­ next few years at least.

fed express can be top again he just needs to change­ his game play, be more aggresive which he never is, he­ needs to go for more of the shots and put more effort­ into it, whoever agree's that he can be top again­ please express it, i need some back up as im a huge fan­ of roger

murray is warming up to take the world no 2 from­ federer soon, well if u over take no 2 in a race then­ what position will u be? guys supply your answers

He still produces some awsome tennis guys respect that.­ I was just going to say that he struggles to keep up­ with top players even if the battle is won already -­ last meeting with Djokovic was clearly a breakdown.­ Same with AO final. I don't write him off I think­ he might win some good match against Djokovic maybe­ Halle would be good.

What a moron is Federer. He really thinks that he can­ achive no1 spot once again... he's paranoid. When­ Sampras couldn't find his form cause he had become­ older, he simply wanted to win just one more GS, but­ this Federer is really stupid.
Federer the man who­ can't deal with the fact that he's not the­ best!

risimko, u might be right but until he get there first

He wouldn't win this one either. He is now talking­ about records and wrestling back number one yada yada­ yada, yet he is playing sh'it. Realistically, he­ should worry about his number 2 ranking

I wouldn't bet this could be the only tour event he­ gets this year.
