Quote by Roger Federer

“I hope so. God, I've practiced so much that I you don't want to be worse five years later. I feel I have a great game today. I know how hard it is to pull off those great shots, and I know how easy it is to miss, so I'm more aware of these things. But I'm so happy I'm at the age I am right now because I had such a great run and I know there's still more possible.”

Now, I always look at the long term and by doing that, obviously, I can stay calm through the storm.”
