Roger Federer is Amused by The Hype Building With His Match With Tomic

Roger Federer is watching the local excitement build for his third-round needle match at the Australian Open against Bernard Tomic.

The 20-year-old challenger is the talk of the tennis-starved public after winning his first career title last weekend in Sydney and coming into his meeting with the Swiss with a 10-0 record in 2013.

But as a 17-time Grand Slam champion and arguably the best to ever play the game, Federer has lived through countless days of hype many times. His solution: just ignore it.

“I don’t read the press, so it doesn’t affect me. I don’t know if he’s going to wake up and first thing in the morning, and go to the coffee shop and read the paper.

“I used to be like that when I was a lot younger, and I stopped doing it a long time ago. It has a big effect on you if you care what people write about you and think of you. I think it’s important to be confident to a degree, you know. It seems he has that.
