Federer Express
Posted by Jeu George on September 11th, 2006
The 2006 US open championship increases Roger Federer’s tally to 9. I had almost no doubt 
that he was going to add this one to his cap of feathers, the only question was if it would take 3 or 4 sets to take down Roddick. Over the last 3 years, he has been a class apart from the rest, more than any sportsmen in any other sport. Some comparable names include Don Bradman (99.94 average), Muhammad Ali, Tiger Woods
(incredible domination until Vijay Singh showed up), Michael Jordan (Magic Johnson, Wilt Chamberlain etc come pretty close), Michael Schumacher (Ayrton Senna wasn’t far away), Jahangir Khan and Jansher Khan
Federer will probably break all tennis records ever set (except maybe the fastest serve or number of aces in match, he will probably leave that to mere mortals 
) and set new ones that won’t be broken in a long long time, like Pete Sampras’s 14 Grand Slam records or winning all 4 in a single year. Winning 9 Grand Slams while just 25 should say of what his man is made of. And most of all, his humbleness adds to his greatness.
Another few years of such dominance, and he will be the greatest sportsperson any sport has ever seen.
