Maybe there is a God?

 

[inflation_era]

Hilarious if Fed came back and took all the records again.

 

[Lleytonstation]

Federer would win MC this week.

 

[Winner Sinner]

He said that he found happiness in his post-career, traveling a lot with his family to places he would have always liked to visit.
I am pleased to hear him say these words since the transition between a competitive career and a post-competitive career is something that many athletes initially suffer a lot, totally dependent on the adrenaline generated by competitive tension, when this suddenly disappears many feel disoriented.

 

[Rosstour]

I have been saying this since November, he's going to do some exhos but do not be shocked to see him take some wildcards on the tour

Thread 'Federer is making noise about being able to play tennis again. Exhos...or something more?'

Nov 26, 2024

Federer has made waves recently by saying how good his knee feels and that he's been back on the court playing matches again.

I find this highly interesting. And I just saw this picture of him--what it tells us?

https://twitter.com/x/status/1861457219746664748

He is wearing the full outfit seen in his Uniqlo profile page, and those shoes look like they've just been untied after a match.

In other words....he is really playing the game again and he wants us to know. I also think appearing in his full "official Uniqlo PR kit" is significant.

Could the miracle really happen?

Does this mean we need to move Federer news back to GPPD?

Clearly he says exho

"I have with my kids, but I would love to go and practice as I travel and hopefully you will see me play an exhibition soon.”

 

[MeatTornado]

You people...

Just saying don't be shocked if it happens

I won't be shocked at all when fed comes for exho. Because he said so during retirement as well.

 

[messiahrobins]

Federer is perfectly happy with his billionaire lifestyle and whether people like this or not status as the most well known tennis player of all time and arguably sportsperson of all time.
He isnt rejoining the tour. Anyone thinking that will happen is smoking too much weird stuff. Federer is the record holder at Wimbledon and US Open. Job done as far as he is concerned with the added icing on his cake of the record holder of titles won in 21st Century that will never be broken.

Ok for the first part of what you wrote, I can give you that. But for the latter? What are YOU smoking: Djoker will not leave until all the records are broken. He's obsessed with being seen as a 'Federer' type.

 

[jl809]

I’d pay some proper monies to see him in an exho. Never got to see him live and am still kicking myself for missing an absolute gimme to see him vs Norrie at Wim in 2021

Djokovic is increasingly that tragic case of a person in their career who didnt get what they wanted and chasing the adulation and respect others got but will never now get. Djokovic could well end up with 110 titles, but it will be a case of handpicking events where the best are not playing, and in truth his last 4 slam wins were events where the best were not present so he is in that position of compounding the issues that frustrate him hugely

 

[InsuranceMan]

Some of you people are ridiculous

 

[HBK4life]

Unless Ponce de León is coaching him this is a former player.

 

[Holmes]

It's just another coping mechanism. The hope of his return dulls the pain of his ultimate defeat with the promise of overcoming his failures.

Federer holds the record at the biggest slam and is joint record holder at the biggest hard court slam. Where is his failure exactly?

 

[BauerAlmeida]

I would not be shocked at all if he plays some exhos, in fact, I'd be shocked if he didn't.

I'd be VERY shocked if he plays an official tournament.

Years ago, my daughter and I walked up to RG, and bought cheap tickets to go in and see some qualifying matches.
We walked around, watching mostly unknown players that were tring to qualify, and then someone told me that famous players
are given about 30 to 60 minutes of practice on the second largest court. When we went in there, we saw Sharapolva.
When she was finished, Federer came out to practice. Not many people there, so we were on the 7th row. That was a good day!

Sharapova was very friendly if there were not many people around. I have had more than a few chats with her, she is very engaging company. However the moment the paparazzi are around, she is as cold as ice

His record at *all* the slams was surpassed once, then twice by two players in his same generation before even retiring.

Hopefully that helps.

His wife has him on a short leash.

There is a better chance Musetti wins a slam.

 

[RSJfan]

I said if Fritz is still top 5 by W then Rogie is coming back.

 

[Rosstour]

There is a better chance Musetti wins a slam.

The worst part about people like you is that if Musetti did win a Slam, or Fed did come back, you still won't admit you were wrong.

The best part about someone like me is that I will be right so I don't have to worry about that. But I would happily be admit I was wrong if Fed came back. I would give anything to see him play again.

But it ain't happening.

I stand by what I said. If either of these things end up happening, you're not gonna be a good sport about it.

lol. I am always a good sport. But Musetti is not winning a slam and Fed is not coming back.

 

[ghostofMecir]

Holmes has one purpose here and that is to argue that Federer is trash

Have to feel sorry for an existence in which a person is utterly frustrated and forever upset that a player surpassed his hero’s grand slam count, and forever eternally holds a 1-0 head to head lead forever.

That's never going to happen

I think he's a Djokofan but yeah

That is what BAD FAITH ACTORS look like , they do enrage me ,

Thanks, yes same. Appreciate your sincerity good and bad

 

[TheGoldenEra1990’s]

He sees the bums playing today and he goes “ ehh why not?” It’s like if you’re a retired elite 50Year old stripper that made millions on GTA V on my downtime with a money cheat code still in good shape and see a 20 year old amputee working the pole

He is gunning for WC25. That is his main goal.

 

[Lleytonstation]

Let Djoker beat Fed one last time. It will forever cement the fact that Djoker beat an old man.

I am so not sorry to tell you all that roger federer is completely done and dusted!

 

[vokazu]

Battle by the Border.

Srsh vs Fedr

Watch this space.

 

[big ted]

Maybe fedr thinks its a weak era now

 

[socallefty]

ON stock is down 30% in two months and looks like Federer wants to make some extra money from exhibitions. He knows his buddy Nadal has connections with the Saudis and can set up some big paydays. Plus it looks like he misses the adoration of his fans.

interesting.

becouse

last 7 no1es titles was big ones while just 1 of last 7 feds titles was big one!
almost 1/4 of all no1es titles are slams and less than 1/5 of feds titles are slams!
almost 3/4 of no1es titles are big while about 1/2 feds titles are big!
nole won apr as many slams as MM titles while fed won 2,5 times more MM titles than slams!

fed won 1245 matches out of which 223 (18%) was vs top10 and 104 (8%) was top5 players while nole won 1135 matches, 259 (23%) vs top10 and 124 (11%) vs top5 players!
so nole won 28% more matches vs top10 and 38% vs top5 players out of all matches won compare with fed!

so, who was inflating his titles account by playing tournaments with less resistant?

 

[GoatNo1]

of course he will play some exhibitions like all others pritared top players. easy way to make big money.

 

[zagor]

For example, Federer is not trash; only his backhand is.

You don't win 19 slams from the baseline on slow modern surfaces with a trash BH.

 

[zagor]

I think he's a Djokofan but yeah

Nah, Pete. Novak is just a bat in this case.

Anyway, teenage Fed stomped defending champ PETE on Centre Court, what can you do. Beat him at his own game.

 

[Gazelle]

The beautiful backhand? Let me show you a trash shot.

Murray didn't even bother running for the open court.

I wonder if he thought he couldn't make it anyway or if he expected Djoko to miss the smash.
