Roger Federer Has Lost The Hunger To Succeed

Roger Federer Has Lost The Hunger To Succeed

Not only did he win it, he went on to win Wimbledon – to some players, the only Grand Slam that matters – probably aided by a serious knee problem that afflicted Nadal. Gone was the sour mood that one would be able to detect during the mandatory press conference (after yet another Grand Slam loss to Nadal) and, arguably, the burning desire to win. That is an incredible, mind-boggling 260-odd weeks! His records speak for themselves, and the beauty of his game was such that it almost amounted to a religious experience.The slide which led to the eventual fall on that day – if you can call a failure to reach the semi-finals stage of a Grand Slam for the 24th successive time that – began late last year, when the Federer Express was jolted to a halt at the US Open in the finals. And then, surprisingly for many – including myself – he lost the US Open final to del Potro who, it turned out, was playing an inspired game. There’s nothing left for Federer to prove as far as tennis records go. But against players like del Potro and Soderling – he’s more likely to lose than he has in the past, not only because they’re exceptionally strong players, but also because the stakes are not as high for him as they were until last year. Wimbledon may never be the same again.Fate can be a very fanciful mistress. Yes, Federer lost again in the quarter-finals to a hitherto unknown Czech, Tomas Berdych, on the court that he has ruled – with just one small blip – over the last 7 years. When Nadal was beaten by Soderling at the French Open, the tennis fraternity collectively held its breath wondering if this would be the year that Federer would finally break through at the only Grand Slam to be noticeably absent in his masterful collection. Quite uncharacteristically, he was smiling broadly after that loss, downplaying it, and pointing out that he had had a fantastic year, having won the French Open for the first (and perhaps, only) time in his career, and capping his year by regaining his beloved Wimbledon crown. The King is not exactly dead, but his days as the best currently active player are definitely coming to an end. It was the year he won the career Slam; the year he regained his throne at The Championships; and perhaps most importantly for him as a person, the year he became a father.Many current and former players may feel that it is too early to write him off, but I beg to differ. It was the very first Grand Slam final that Federer had lost to a man not named Nadal. One could argue that unless he improves his win-loss record with Nadal, or win a calendar Grand Slam, he cannot be called the greatest ever, but if you ask me, those will be mere footnotes in tennis history.To be sure, I’m not suggesting that Federer’s days as a Grand Slam winner are behind him; he may still win a handful, especially when challenged by players who lack self-belief (Andy Murray comes to mind). http://mylife.maheshj.info/ and http://blog.maheshj.info. He has already won more Grand Slam singles titles than any man, dead or alive; he holds the record of appearing in 10 consecutive Grand Slam singles finals, and 23 Grand Slam semi-finals; he has been ranked the ATP world No.1 for a record 237 consecutive weeks (the next best is Jimmy Connors, at a ‘mere’ 160); and he has the best year-end win-loss record next only to John McEnroe’s. Though his next Grand Slam success, at this year’s Australian Open, was definitely not a fluke, I couldn’t shake off the feeling that the man had lost his intensity, the hunger that fuels the greatest of champions to keep going long after the good and very good players have stopped trying.That slide continued here at Wimbledon, where, ironically, he made his claim to greatness. But then again, 2009 was not any other year. Nobody who had seen Federer weep after losing the 2009 Australian Open to Nadal would have dared imagine that the year would be what it turned out for him. It was the first time in history that two different players have won the French-Wimbledon double in successive years: Nadal did it the previous year, ironically at Federer’s expense.With his beloved Wimbledon trophy back in his hands, he also overtook Pete Sampras as the all-time leader of Grand Slam singles title winners, 15 in all. The man who had stridden the tennis world like a Goliath – with the ‘lesser’ Goliath occasionally bringing him down – fell by the wayside before a Grand Slam semi-final. The last time this had happened was nearly six years ago. And it may pass on to that lesser Goliath, the gentle man from Mallorca who has been King-in-waiting for such a long time. Last month, one of the greatest streaks in sport was broken. However, with no disrespect to the Argentine, Federer simply wouldn’t have lost a final on the hard courts of Flushing Meadows – perhaps not even to Nadal – had it been any other year.

But they were anything but as their work ethic and good solid defense saw them through with wins over Cameroon and Denmark.

South Korea and Japan both exceeded expectations and advanced from their groups with structured play and hard work.
