Oh Roger...

Roger Federer will lose his number 1 ranking after holding it for an impressive 235 consecutive weeks. Federer has won twelve Grand Slam singles titles, four Tennis Masters Cup titles, and fourteen ATP Masters Series titles. He also appeared in 10 consecutive Grand Slam men's singles finals and 17 consecutive Grand Slam singles semifinals. He is such a likable guy. Very talented yet humble and gracious.

I am not happy to see him loose his ranking but at least it is to Rafael Nadal. Rafa is an OK guy despite his annoying mannerism is court. He and Roger have a very friendly relationship. They have great respect and admiration for each other. I am glad it was not Novak Djokovic who is so full of himself lately specially after winning the Australian Open this January.
