    He still has 3 more tourneys for the rest of the year. He is like a celebrity. He can do whatever he wants.

    noticed past few years fed return game has weakened, he's not breaking serves like he used too, i'm sure if fed keeps going out early in majors he will retire soon

    If u knew anything about tennis at all you would know that Tsitsipas is one of the biggest up and comers in men’s tennis. He will be ranked #1 within the next 2 years. Federer still great, age catching up to him but this was more of the case of Tsitsipas having his coming out party

    When you train all winter, skip clay season and focus solely on 3 majors and a pair of 1000s a 4th rd exit is a red flag

    The Greek kid is good, but has nothing overpowering from what I've seen. Just very consistent

    I'm going to cough up $$$ for front row at Miami Open to see Fed, it might be the last year or so here....

    He's the greatest!

    Federer will win 4 more majors before he retires. He is only 37 years young. He is 5 years younger than Brady.

    Against his own standards sure, competeting and making a couple semi finals/finals a year would be killer results for almost every tour player in the world, let alone a 38 year old one. People only saying he’s done because they’re comparing him to prime roger

    The guy isn’t done but this has no chance of happening. He’s not the best of the old guys and finally a wave of young players, he maybe might win one more catching the right draws and avoiding bad matchups, you’re on meth if you think 4 is happening.

    Overreaction here!!! He lost to a very good player last night and they was close games!!! He made a few errors and it cost him... he’s still one of the best in the world and has at least 3 years left!!

    I watch tennis, I bet tennis.

    I haven't bet Fed for nearly 3 years, always over juiced and isn't covering spreads either.

    Guy cannot break big servers.

    With his US Open disaster blowing 2 set lead and this start to 2019 ... both versus unremarkable players, I just think he's looking at the next 9 months as a grind, realizes he won't catch Conners and maybe moves on???

    He doesn't seem the type to not leave gracefully

    He surely still got the moves despite the age.
