Federer Just One Of Many Tennis Gods |

Roger Federer. (SUI). Thank the Tennis Gods for Greg Sharko. Greg has been with the ATP World Tour practically since it’s inception…. ” Sharko” puts together the official ATP media guide. To those of us” SUPER tennis fans” its our Bible… Every detail /stat/fact can be found in his 250 pages …

Roger Federer. I consider myself an expert on the subject but decided to check the media guide…This last thought before I dive in…. 10sballs.com staff all thought Rogi looked fit and relaxed for most of the French. His hair had a great cut and both his hair and beautiful Mirka’s seemed darker. We looked closer. Yes his eyebrows were perfectly “man scaped”. Looks like the clan had been in Dubai for some of that 7 star treatment …

I’m in the ATP media guide now. Yes. One of our writers is out sick. I just woke up and I need to pitch in ….Wow. Both Roger and Rafa are 6’1″(1.85m) tall. Roger weighs 187(84kg) Rafa 188(85kg). Hmn. I think that varies. Fyi. Most tennis players stay as light as possible to stay fit, have longer careers … Any extra weight is hard to carry around a court. Big Boss talks about dinner with so many players where they drink diet cokes and eat shrimp cocktails …the Chicks do that then sneak to eat cake. Cookies. Sweets …I’m distracted sorry. Ok. Back to the Mighty Fed. Roger turned pro in 1998. We met soon after. We are huge fans … The site and staff are supporters of the Roger Federer Foundation. Check out their website. Its fantastic! The work the Federer Family do is amazing. All pretty quietly with style and grace.

The photo in this story was taken by Art Seitz and it is from the Federer calendar. Robbie Federer produces the monumental task each year of producing it. He goes thru thousands of photos to pick his favorites. Robbie gives all the Federer fans a bonus of a picture of Rogi as a child.

I’m back in Gregs book looking for a closer… Some little known fact I never knew…. Here it is…: Roger finished his junior career with title at the Orange Bowl with a win over Coria.

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.
