I knew this day was coming, but it's still hard to say: Roger Federer has retired from professional tennis. For 24 years of my 28 years on this earth, Roger has been the consummate gentlemen's champion, fan-favorite, and family man.
It's been hard to learn the intimate details of his adult life, but thanks to the passage of time, there is a surprising and entertaining amount of information now available to round out the romantic image of the Swiss Maestro. There are countless other monikers to describe Fed, but for me, he's simply the best role model I have ever seen.
In this episode of Who's to Say?, I share my perspective on his career and his personal impact on his fans. He will be missed tremendously, but we have enjoyed over 1,000 matches, incalculable moments of raw effort and baffling grace, all of which will live on forever more.
