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.

When tennis becomes a circus: 2012 Mutua Madrid Open Ceremony



This is the weirdest trophy ceremony I've ever seen. Will Smith presented Roger Federer with his suit from Men In Black 3 (note - that's used clothing) and made a speech in Mayor Bloomberg Spanish. "Un regalo muy, muy especial." Cried laughing.

Possibly the most adorable picture of the Federers to date
