Why Roger Federer Is My Favorite Tennis Player

By Davis Pete


I am always fascinated by the way the professional tennis players play the game of tennis. I always get inspired by the hard work they put in on and off court. These professional players have so much determination and perseverance in their training and during matches which helps them to succeed. Many of these professional tennis players are both physically and mentally strong and in order to be strong in these two important aspects of tennis, these players sweat off and on court and are always hungry for success. It is every child's dream to be top 10 in the world one day and even to win a grand slam. Although I like many tennis players, my favorite tennis player would be the number 1 in the world, Roger Federer. Roger Federer (born August 8, 1981) is a Swiss professional tennis player who, in 2004, became the world's top tennis player.

My favorite tennis player would be Roger Federer because he has always been my greatest inspiration from young. From a young age, I have always been fascinated by his game style and how smart he is on court. I always loved how he would often mix up the pace and rhythm in rallies and use various shots to destabilize the opponent; forcing the opponent to make mistakes. Moreover, I admire his ability to stay cool and calm during the match and showing little emotion whatsoever if he wins or loses the point. Roger Federer uses his brains a lot to play and succeed in tournaments. No doubt the Swiss Maestro has a good serve and decent strokes however, whenever he steps on court, he plays with his head and uses his all-rounded game to his advantage. He serves and volleys, chips and charges, everything; this is what confuses his opponents. This is why many recon Federer as the genius in tennis. I also feel that whenever Federer steps on court, there is always this aura about him and that he is just so neat and majestic. Whenever I watch him play, I feel like he plays so gracefully and effortlessly that it is just so amazing and entertaining to watch the Swiss play.

I like Roger because he is a determined person and will work hard for success. He says 'You always want to win. That is why you play tennis, because you love the sport and try to be the best you can at it.' This shows that he is competitive and is hungry for success. This led him to win 17 Grand Slam titles breaking the previous all-time men's record of 14 by Pete Sampras. Federer's list of achievements is countless and the Swiss has managed to break many records in his years of playing in the professional circuit.

Despite all these remarkable achievements, Roger Federer is still humble and displays great sportsmanship on court. A player should have good character and attitude Roger Federer has great attitude and character and I am truly inspired by the Swiss' sportsmanship and attitude on and off court. He is still hungry for success and is willing to work even harder to scale greater heights.

In summary, Roger Federer has truly been an idol to me and he is indeed a remarkable person that has achieved so much with hard work. I have been motivated by him to work even harder and to play even smarter. I have indeed learnt a lot from his game. Alle Federer!
