I guess that just about says it all, eh?

You know, even Tiger seems human at times.

This guy Federer just doesn't seem human.

I think he's could be an android...or a Vulcan.

Tiger looks human sometimes. But the 16th hole at Augustus tells us otherwise. (He's great!!)

Federer: Really enjoyed watching him. He's smoooooth.....all the way!!

You know what..... I swear that I have thought the same thing more than once. He is that good...... and he has this presence that almost makes me feel like he never gets "shook" like we regular humans do from time to time in competition.

Maybe I'm listening to "Coast To Coast" too much.

Nevertheless, to me it's a joy to see an athlete play as well as he does, to make the shots that he makes, and to be the gentleman that he is.

I used to play baseball a lot like that decades ago ........... so I really love these incredible sportsmen....... even if he is an alien, android.... or whatever.

By the way .......... what do aliens' autographs look like? And maybe we should check into Roger's family tree.

Yes, that beautiful backhand may have been developed on another planet. Federer's at the peak of his game and he's won enough majors to have a claim on being the greatest player ever. (Although some of the other greats like Borg often never bothered to play in the Austrlian Open so would have won a lot more.)

But he'll want to keep going until he can win the French Open. If he hadn't lost to Nadal in the French final, he would have become the first player since Laver to do the grand slam. (Not including Steffi Graf who did it a couple of times, I think.)
