As Andy Murray, our perennial nearly-man, makes yet another early exit from a major tournament, the seemingly ageless Roger Federer storms on.
Federer's ruthless demolition of Rafael Nadal in the World Tour Finals yesterday demonstrated just how wrong are those who've written him off as a major force in world tennis. He may not be the player he was 5 years ago but he's en-route to a return to the top 3 ranking, overtaking the hapless Murray, by the end of the season.
Whether or not Federer ever wins another Grand Slam event, he has been an awesome presence in the sport for a decade and no one can ignore the continued threat that he presents. What price for him to win the Australian Open in January ?
