EXCERPT FROM THE FOREWORD

Simply Federer. Whenever we talk about him and his amazing career we tend to look for new definitions to describe his magnitude. The King, the Greatest of all times, the Alien. Perfect, Phenomenal, Supernatural, Divine. With his records and with that humbleness in achieving them we cannot say that all those definitions are inappropriate but we can say that they can be misleading in the understanding of the essence of what the Federer phenomenon really represents. The essence that is in reality the main ingredient of his game,his appearance and his way of being. The simplicity of making an impossible shot seem easy.The simplicity of being able to wear a red tennis shirt with a grey collar and making it look like as elegant as a dining suit. The simplicity of having just a couple of different hairstyles during a 15 year long career. The simplicity of being a normal husband and a normal dad staying out of the limelight. The simplicity of answering to every question with impeccable manners and the simplicity of not answering with manners to rude questions. This is the essence of Roger Federer.
