Wish I had of read this befor I took Lopez tonight. Fck me.
ROGER Federer once feared Lleyton Hewitt would prematurely retire with injury but now he insists the former world No.1 is the last person he wants to confront in Australia because he has the "fire in his eyes" again.
Federer knows more about Hewitt than most. The duo have clashed countless times in careers spanning back to their junior days and last met as recently as Sunday where they sweated it out over two hours on the practice court together.
The Swiss superstar could immediately sense that Hewitt was back in his sweet zone, happy on tour and striking the ball well after a troubling few years plagued by injury.
"It seems like he's really enjoying it, which is nice, because for a while there I thought he was not going to be able to stay on tour much longer with all the injuries that he had," Federer said.
"It's nice to see that he's back healthy and has the fire in his eyes, because that's what he needs to play and to beat the best.
