More Insight of his Career:

Federer has been ranked No. 1 in the world since February 2, 2004, and holds the all-time record for most consecutive weeks as the top-ranked male player.[10] His current lead in the rankings guarantees that on August 27, 2007 he will break Steffi Graf's record for most consecutive weeks (186) as the top-ranked male or female player. On April 2, 2007, he was named Laureus World Sportsman of the Year for a record third consecutive time. On July 8, 2007, Federer equaled Bjrn Borg's open era record of five consecutive wins at Wimbledon. Since the establishment of the ATP computer rankings, Federer has the record for the most points ever

Now Question???

Do you think he can win the French Open Title Ever? or he is a King of Grass Court only?

thanks nug

yeah even i think he can win the French open but as the each passing year he is getting older and older and his opponents like Nadal is still quite young so he should win it next year..or he will be another pete Sampras as he never won French open..i guess ? ryt nug😕😆....

or like Sergei Buregeira..who won 3 consecutive French open but never any other grass court grand slam..is both the things so different😊
