I went to Indian Wells to catch a glimpse of Roger practicing

Roger and Annacone are behind that fence. There was such a huge crowd, even lined up along the second level of the main stadium, that this was the best I could do at first.

My glimpse! Okay, we can go home now. 

Tall guy tried to help me and chopped off his head. It's okay.
Roger shouldn't get in it anyway. That's when he goes off the boil.

Team Federer. Except you can't see Federer.

Rogi and Paul back there.

A new angle! He really had a solid, long session.
Guess he wants to defend this thing.

Waited forever. Almost got trampled.
And Roger is behind that guy walking. COME ON!

Roger walking away over there. No love for us today.

And I had something important to ask him.

Reason 2758924572934 to love Roger Federer

From Roger's hometown in Switzerland, October 2012.


From when Roger beat DelPo at the 2012 Olympics SF.


Background: Juan Martin Del Potro is a 6'6" Argentinian you can't miss. He's ranked top 10 in men's tennis, and famous for having beaten Nadal in the SF then Roger to win the 2009 US Open. They're both known for being super nice guys.

Too beautiful not to share

"Rickyroger" wrote this on RogerFederer.com after Wimbledon 2012:

We knew it had to happen at some point. 

But it doesn't make it any less sweet now that it actually occurred.

To the man we live vicariously through,
To the most deserving current servant of the greatest game ever played,
To the genius who suspends our lives as though we breathe through his chest,
To the boy who makes us feel like there are no shades of grey in his soul, if such a thing exists - just flashing white...

I salute you.
You are mighty, you are beautiful and you move me beyond any truly tangible boundary.

Thanks.

Thanks for showing us you never left. We often believe you are ours.

Truth is you fooled us all.

We have always been yours.

Salud.

Love how King of Planet Earth handles this.

Federer gives the scientific explanation why the ball bounced twice in the Madrid 2012 Final vs. Berdych.
