Federer is unstopable and he provved that through the otugh quarter final match against Blake. He has the potential achieve as many grand slams as he wants during his career.

Federer won another Grand Slam!? Really!?



Seriously, I have never seen such a domination in any single sport other than Michael Jordan in NBA, Schumi in F1 and the old Tiger Woods in golf. Roger is simply sensational and they should just skip the formalities of playing the matches and award him the Australia Open right away.

Tommy Haas 100% fit and you will see who will win in Australia

I've been watching Tommy Haas for over 7 years now, and I am still yet to see him win a grand slam. Him along with Carlos Moya. They're great players! Some of the best on the ATP Tour.

Last time umpire had to help Federer to win. Btw, your tennis is based on Slovaks. What is Hingis's birthplace? Where is Federer's girlfriend from? (he would be average player without her)

Only normall Safin can beat Federer in Australia... Maybe the most talented player but...

Henman made it to an ATP final this week for the first time in 2 years! It was only a small tournament in Japan, but it is still a big improvement as he has pretty much been on a downward slope lately. Unfortunately he had to play Federer in the final, so of course he lost pretty easily. It seems only Nadal and an in form Safin can beat Federer when he plays at his best.

The Australia Open ended this weekend with the victories of Serena Williams and Roger Federer. Serena Williams won against Sharapova in the final, and I must say that I was impressed with her determination and strength, about Federer more of the same, slow start and a strong final gave him another "Grand Slam" title.

It still amazes me the ability that Federer has to play at top level in almost every surface, let's wait for Roland Garros and see what happens this year.

Its reaching a point of complete dominance and sadly, no one is good enough for him. The only good thing about this, is that players will work harder and improve the standards of the game. He needs a rival and roddick is not worthy of that title.

i grew up with the US dominance in the 90's and id have to say that this is the deepest vein of talent running around the mens circuit ever

the only challenger is nadal and only on clay, where the ball sits up long enough for him to stay in the point

any other surface = u run while i hit the ball and make u look like beginners

only way to beat federer is to overpower him

 

[Handoyo]

If I were Federer, I'd send someone to kidnap Nadal during the French Open.

Imagine, for 3 seasons running, Inter winning everything there is to win but always failing to win the Toyota/Inter-Continental/FIFA World Club Cup because of one particular team...

Czech President Klaus survives Roddick serve

OSTRAVA, Czech Republic, Feb 9 (Reuters) - Czech President Vaclav Klaus's bodyguards are trained to dive in front of bullets to ensure his safety. But apparently that does not apply to tennis balls as well.

Klaus, sitting in the front row of the Czech Republic's Davis Cup tie against the United States, was on the receiving end of a serve from Andy Roddick, owner of the fastest serve in the game today.

Roddick's blast bounced up and hit Klaus, an avid tennis player himself, in the chest. The president was unhurt in the incident. Roddick played on unaware.

"I didn't notice that," Roddick said, smiling when told about the incident.

"But I said in warm-up that most of the time, there's a net behind the wall and I saw that this one (arena) didn't have one, so someone might be dodging some tennis balls today. But I promise you that it was nothing personal." Roddick, who holds the record for the fastest serve at 154 miles per hour (247.8 kmh) added insult to injury by going on to beat Czech Ivo Minar in the match.

:dielaugh: :star:

Another source (Czech) says that ball's speed was about 200 km/h

Just wonder if there is any sport where we can beat Czechs without any problems.

0-3 and still 2 games to be played.

Nadal beat Federer. He is unstoppable on clay.
