Origin
and identity
Roger Federer made attacking tennis feel unhurried, combining early timing, inventive shot selection and balance that kept every part of the court available.
The Basel player became Wimbledon champion in 2003. His forehand could end a rally abruptly, while his serve and one-handed backhand supplied variety that rewarded repeated viewing.
Roland-Garros in 2009 completed his collection of the four major singles titles. His 2017 Australian Open revival revealed a champion still willing to adjust an already celebrated game.
