Biographical notes
Federer's father Robert is Swiss and his mother Lynette is South African. They worked in the same pharmaceutical factory, met on a business trip and got married. Roger has a sister, Diana Federer, who is two years older than him. She is an accountant (also called a nurse, which cannot be verified).
Federer is very talented in tennis. 1998 turned into a professional player, became a professional tennis player, and started his professional tennis career (see tennis career). His idols on the road of growing up were Becker and Edberg, and then his favorite player was Sampras, both of whom played backhand with one hand.
In terms of language, Federer is proficient in German (mother tongue), French and English.
In 2000, at the Sydney Olympic Games, Federer met his girlfriend Miroslava Wafrinac (mirka), who was also a professional tennis player. Federer also played tennis for Switzerland in the 2000 Olympic Games. However, he retired in 2002 because his foot movement was damaged.
From June 5438 to October 2003 10, Federer started the business of men's cosmetics named after himself.
From June, 5438 to February, 2003, Federer established the Federer Foundation to help poor children (mainly in their mother's hometown of South Africa) and promote the development of youth sports (mainly tennis) in the world.
Sports spirit in ball games
Federer's full-court play is impressive, and he is proficient in all 18 martial arts. He once said that one aspect he wanted to improve was to put the ball down. Like many contemporary players, his forehand grip is semi-western. And his one-handed backhand has made great progress in recent years. Players report that his backhand is becoming more and more difficult to attack because it is becoming a powerful weapon. His serve is difficult to master, because he serves with his back to his opponent, and the ball he throws is always in the same position, so the opponent is easily confused by him. His first shot is about 125MPH, while his second shot has a strong topspin. His serve is often won by the accuracy of the landing point, but sometimes he will choose a hard serve to make his opponent difficult to parry.
His footwork is excellent, covering the whole stadium effectively. His fast pace and excellent ability to predict make him one of the fastest moving players. Diversified play is one of his greatest advantages. His excellent touch makes him an excellent volleyer, and the accuracy of the baseline ball helps him to take the initiative in his own hands when playing with the baseline players. His ability to turn from defense to attack is almost the best today, whether active or passive. It happens all the time, and when you see this, you think he's completely hopeless. Suddenly, he fought back, and a winning goal stunned you.
Federer's style of play is very natural and unrestrained, and there are no obvious technical loopholes in all aspects. When he is in a very relaxed state, his game style is very aggressive in nature. He often takes the initiative to look for opportunities instead of passive defense, but if the objective situation requires him to defend, he can also control it freely. His most commonly used weapon is his powerful forehand, but his backhand is getting weaker and weaker. He often patiently deals with his opponents, gradually putting himself in a favorable terrain, and then giving them a fatal blow, such as playing an accurate forehand straight line or a big forehand diagonal line in running to win directly. Federer himself once mentioned that he can judge the opponent's actions and thus put himself in a favorable position in the process of sawing.
One neglected aspect of his playing style is his endurance, because his opponents usually run more than him in the game and serve longer than him. Rafael Nadal is the only player who can keep up with him in the protracted war, and no other player can. For example, in the fourth set of the US Open final, andy roddick was exhausted.
