Roger Federer's birthday

[moviequeen1]

One of my favorite tennis players,Roger Federer is 37 today,the oldest man still playing on the ATP tour.He currently is #2 player in the world.
I used to play tennis in the 80'-early 90's,my favorite male players then were Ivan Lendl and Stephan Edberg
He has won 20 Grand Slam titles{Australian,French Open,Wimbledon,U.S. Open} which is most of any male player in history.
He has won 8 Wimbledon titles:2003-'07,'09,,'12,'17
He has won 6 Australian titles:'04,'06-'07,'10,'17-'18
He has won 5 U.S.Open titles:'04-'08
He won French Open once in '09
He has Swiss and South African citizenship since his mom was born in S. Africa
I love watching him every time he plays,amazing he's still playing at age 37
I dread the day he decides to retire,the tennis world will lose the greatest player ever to play the game Sue

He has a beautiful family. Two girls, two boys, and a lovely sweet looking wife. Thanks for the stats moviequeen. Interesting.

He's one of tennis's greatest players and we're so glad to have him still active and winning slams after so many years. I hope he and Rafa never retire, but play doubles together like they did at the Laver cup last fall. What an unbeatable combination they make. :love_heart:

I have only just joined, so am late to the discussion. Roger is simply the best tennis player ever. I have had the pleasure of watching this wonderful man play a few times. Not as many as I would have wanted to, though. Have also met him a few times and he is just lovely.
