Stefan Edberg is living the dream as coach of Roger Federer – even though the six-time grand slam event winner admitted that he never thought of being in such a position in the current game.

Edberg, 48, was inducted into the Rogers Cup Hall of Fame at the Toronto Masters, which conveniently dove-tailed with his stint as lone coach for the Swiss second seed at the major US Open tune-up.

The Swede said that life changed in a good way when he got the call form Federer last December asking if he wanted to come on board. “It’s nothing that I thought that I ever would do, but obviously being around Roger and the way he is as a person on and off court has actually been a very, very good journey so far,” said Edberg. “It’s been good to see him making some progress this year.

“As we all know, he was very, very close winning at Wimbledon (he lost a five-set final to Novak Djokovic). There was one or two points that made a difference in that final, which was one of the better finals I have watched in the past in the many, many years.

“But that’s the way it is in tennis. But I still believe the way he’s playing, and if he can keep working and stay healthy, he’s got a shot of doing very well here going forward. But it’s an important week this week as well here.”

Edberg is in charge this week as Federer’s main coach Severin Luthi takes the week off after playing Swiss club tennis last week. “I’m here on my own this week, and I think I’m coming with the few ideas how he can handle different things, maybe technically and a few small things,” said Edberg. “But I can’t make that much of a difference, but a little bit of a difference I think I can make. You know, it’s been good so far.”
