In an exclusive book extract, Roger Federer’s remarkable career and his epic grand slam battles with Rafael Nadal are revisited
After turning professional in 1998, Roger Federer’s career spanned four decades at the top of the men’s game, during which he took the game to new levels.
In that time, he’s played Andre Agassi and Pete Sampras; taken on the great clay-courters like Gustavo Kuerten and Guillermo Coria; stared down Marat Safin and Lleyton Hewitt; and, most famously of all, locked horns with Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray. And he’s beaten the lot.
