He has an extra "gear" than he shifts into which is astonishing and then it's often all over, but at times it's not there and he loses by losing intensity during what should be a straight forward match.
Federer is a joy to watch and feels really weird saying that so many years on when most other players would be retired....instead he's Number One in the world and favoured at Wimbleton
