Mirka Federer, wife of Roger Federer. Is just that woman. Novak doesn’t have a major female force behind him. Rafa same thing. Andy Murray as well. Well, yes, Judy is spectacular but she is not Mirka. By the way. Judy may win as top female tennis tweeter. Ivo Karlovic and Tursonov are funny too.

Mirka has been a ” constant ” for Rogi for 12 years. Twelve. That’s a dozen this year. They have a Ying / yang that works for them. They are an amazing couple. They squeeze in a year that’s so busy with commitments that they live bigger in a year than most people in a lifetime. Maybe more traveling and obligations and sponsor events and shoots etc. Change that from a year or a month to any average week more than the average person in a lifetime.

It’s not all as glamourous as it sounds. Long hours of international travel and time zones with twins. And all that it takes to travel with children. Strollers. Car seats. Clothes. (at least the clothes are tiny) but they are always growing and need four seasons of clothes every trip. Rogi and Mirka do it all with the usual Federer style (smooth ).  Have you ever heard him say one of the twins kept him up all night?

Mr./Mrs. Roger Federer. Roger does his work on the court. Mirka’s jobs are endless and they both work hard during those invisible hours no one sees. Packing. Unpacking. Training. Planning. Organizing. And all the while trying to be charming and pleasant. With smiles on their faces and the Swiss spirit in their hearts and heads.

All the while they look lovely. Yup. Trendy. Cute. Hip. Fun. A very handsome couple. Maybe Mirka will be the coach of the twins? She was always Rogers favorite warm up partner ! Always . He just wanted a hit to literally warm up. Watch the ball. Mirka was a fine player. She will stand by her man and love him win or lose. Mirka and his girls bring the biggest smile to Rogers face.

Mrs. Roger Federer we applaud you. Brilliant job you do! The most important lady in the life of the most amazing athlete of any generation. You keep Rogi happy. That’s important. We applaud you.

The only way to describe this U.S. open is soaking wet without raining... It's really hard to play tennis when your socks are soaking wet and you are "sloshing" in your shoes. Your shoes get really heavy when they get wet.
