Kim Clijsters: 'It will be bad when Roger Federer won't play anymore'
The four-time Grand Slam winner praised for his longevity. Its very nice how he still plays tennis, Clijsters told Tennis Krant. Sometimes you think about how his retirement will be in a few years, it will be so bad that Federer wont be on the Tour anymore.
He is playing tennis with so much passion and pleasure, and thats why he gets good results. Is Clijsters, who retired in 2012, planning to come back on the Tour? Me nope. I ask myself sometimes about it, since Serena and Venus still play.
But after three children everything would be a little tougher. Its good how it was. Her daughter Jada is almost ten years old, but she may not follow her mothers footsteps. Nope, Jada is completely obsessed by the basketball. Meanwhile, about Federer, said: We cannot give him enough awards, he is amazing, he changed and redefined tennis, he is a fantastic man and athlete, and I was always the first to doubt, Becker said.
When I learned that Roger would have taken a six-month break, you thought if he would be back with his old strengths, but he proved all the doubters that they were wrong, and the same is for Rafael Nadal. They do not have to do it for themselves, they have won everything, they earned a lot of money, the only reason why they are back is that they love competing at the best, they love tennis.
We will probably understand it when they will not be there anymore. ALSO READ: Rafael Nadal: Worse players than David Ferrer won a Grand Slam title
