It's no wonder that even today, he's making more money than any tennis player alive, and it's not even close, even tho he's not competing in a single tennis game.

    when people work from the bottom up, you get people that appreciate the craft in all aspects.

    Roger is a great sportsman and I was always a big fan of his. I get why many people prefer him over Djokovic. But for the people that think that Roger is a more fair sportsman than Nole, I recommend that they search for Novak's good sportsmanship moments. The amount of conceded points from that guy is unmatched and really impressive.
