Roger Federer’s thoughts on Rafael Nadal’s Australian Open Win

RAFAEL NADAL cruised past Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic by winning a record 21st Grand Slam title at the current edition of the Australian Open.

Roger Federer has ended the suspense on how he felt watching long-time foe and friend Rafael Nadal break his Grand Slam world record.

Roger Federer has been the most decorated man at Grand Slam level since Wimbledon 2009, with Nadal and Novak Djokovic playing catch up to his record of 20 titles.

Rafael Nadal was able to go past this benchmark in the Grand Slam race for the first time when he won the Australian Open on Sunday, attaining a record 21st Major trophy.

Federer broke Pete Sampras’ Grand Slam world record way back in 2009, winning a then-record 15th Major title at Wimbledon. Now he knows how Sampras felt almost 13 years back! Of course he also is aware on how difficult it is to break any form of world record.

Federer was one of the first players to applaud his long-standing opponent for his accomplishment in an expressive social media message, and has now shared how he felt viewing the final for the first time.

The Swiss tennis legend was nothing but happy for the 35-year-old Spaniard, admitting he knew more than anyone how challenging it was to break a record.
