“Does Out of Politeness”: Former Romanian Star Highlights Roger Federer’s Ability To Transform Attitudes

Roger Federer

Former World No. 1 Roger Federer is one of the biggest assets in tennis. Over the years, the Swiss superstar has raised the bar in the men’s game. The manner in which he carries himself on and off the court is second to none. When he is on the court, he does his business without expressing much emotion and expression. 

Recently, former Romanian tennis player Victor Hanescu praised Roger Federer for his ability to transform attitudes on and off the tennis court, and he highlighted the Swiss ace’s elegant attitude. The former French Open quarterfinalist also noted Federer’s fierce and competitive attitude on the court.

Victor Hanescu: “Roger Federer knows the level he is at”

The former World No. 26 stated, “Federer is a very elegant guy, trained for this and off the field. There are a lot of things he does out of politeness. He knows what level he is at and that he has to behave in a certain way. But, when he enters the field, he transforms completely and we can see a Federer who is no longer so friendly and kind and becomes a ferocious fighter.”

In the current season, Roger made a comeback on the men’s Tour at the Doha Open 2021. After winning his opening round match, his journey came to an end in the following round. He was scheduled to play in Dubai the following week but chose to train harder in order to return to his best form.
