5 Reasons Roger Federer's life is peRFect

The Game

Federer has recently added newer weapons to his arsenal – inculding a faultless backhand

Roger Federer is the closest to what perfection would be on a tennis court.

A big serve? He has it. The pace? He has it. The accuracy? That too. A big forehand, an absolutely sublime single-handed backhand , one of the most beautiful serves? All of the above.

One of the few players that can effectively handle serve-and-volley and baseline play – and well, Federer tends to look inward to dig out what seem like superhuman shots – and ridiculously difficult tweeners that he makes look absolutely effortless.

There is an artist’s elegance about his game, so much so that if Federer were a ticket collector on a pan-European train – he would possibly have reams of coverage on social media on how beautifully he checks tickets.

For right now, though, I can tell you just how well he sells them.

But then he plays the beautiful game and he is the apex of what is beautiful in that game.

For a mortal, it is hard to fathom how elegant and clean Federer’s game is. The nonchalance in which he approaches and plays shots may come across to some as even arrogant – but it is not.

It is not Federer’s fault- if fault has to be attributed to someone – it will be the fault of the gods to give so much talent to one single being.
