KRISTEN'S KOURT: CAN ROGER FEDERER WIN ANOTHER GRAND SLAM?

Ok, let me rephrase that. WILL Roger Federer win another grand slam?

We all know Roger Federer is more than capable of winning another grand slam title, but the real question is whether or not he’ll actually do it. These two guys named Djokovic and Nadal (not sure if you’ve heard of them or not) have seemed to take over the ATP tour, winning all but one of the majors in the last two years. That one major belonged to Roger, when he took home the Australian Open title in 2010. Since then, Djokovic and Nadal have been more than dominating – they’ve been unstoppable; and it begs the question: has Federer’s reign over the grand slams come to an end?

Just a few days ago, Roger reached yet another career high when he won his 234th grand slam match – surpassing Jimmy Connors for the all-time career mark. There’s no doubt that the level of tennis Federer is currently playing at is a bit unreal. The guy has been on the pro tour for 14 years now, and has remained in the top 5 for nine of those. Every opponent he faces regards him as dangerous and knows that while he isn’t unbeatable, the holes in his game are so tiny that the chances of protruding those holes are very slim.

So back to the original point of this post…will Roger Federer win another grand slam?

Honestly, I don’t know how to answer that. Do I think he is capable of winning another grand slam? Absolutely. Would I (along with everyone else at 10sballs.com) like to see him win another? Of course. Do I foresee Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal faltering dramatically enough to give him an opening at any given major? Probably not – at least not before he decides to retire. Now I’m not saying that Roger is nearing retirement by any means. Yes, he’s 30 years old. But I think he’s got at least another 3 years on the tour as a dominating player, and maybe even another 2 or 3 after that. But Roger’s years of finding himself on top and poised to win everything are behind him. He still one of the toughest guys on the tour, but his reign has come to an end. It’s time for him to step aside and let a new generation of players have their chance.
