Roger wore a tux! And he won an award


The reasonable people over in St. Petersburg presented Roger with his fourth straight Laureus Sportsman of the Year Award. He's the first person to receive the award four times. And he beat out Tiger for the title. Teehee.

Reason 13445543 to cancel your SI subscription

Roger was named the world’s Top Sporting Champion of the Year by the International Sports Press Association (AIPS) for the third year in a row. Seriously, I have canceled my subscription.

Roger's the Champion of Champions

Roger was named Champion of Champions by the French newspaper L'Equipe. Is this kind of stuff getting repetitive? I mean obviously Roger is a champion. Check him out speaking French. He speaks so many languages if he just had a bulletproof golf cart he'd be the Pope!

When in doubt, report an award Roger has won

Did you already have me figured out? The guy just never stops winning awards. I'm only one person so I can't report them all. I'm going to issue my blanket apology about that now.

Today I'm informing the world that Roger was named Player of the Year by Tennis Magazine. Henin was also honored. Do you love Henin? I sure do. Sometimes they call her the Roger of the women. That's some compliment.
