Roger Federer will finish career with 22 Grand Slam titles, says writer
How many Grand Slam titles will Roger Federer hold once his career ends? The journalist Thomas Sotto tried to answer this question in an interview with La Montagne. "I think 22. But if he ends with 23, I will not criticize him", said Sotto. On Federer's popularity, Sotto added: "Roger is on the top 10 of the most famous people on the planet. For Federer, it's tougher to find a calm place where he can eat with friends rather than a red carpet on his feet."
How to explain his status as an icon? "He is elegant. He is able to share his Dreams with his fans or people who love tennis. He also has a great mentality. It's funny that people like Anna Wintour are completely outside tennis and they can still speak in a detailed way of him."
On the keys of Federer's success, the writer concluded: "He was lucky and talented to be surrounded by good people, for having worked with the right people. And then he has Mirka who gives to be given half the credit of Roger Federer's success."
Meanwhile, Serena Williams' coach Patrick Mouratoglou praised Kerber: "I admire Angelique a lot, she is a great athlete. She is a fighter who works so hard for her success. Her strategy on the court perfectly suits his qualities. She reads the game extremely well and she is one of the best players on the women's side."
