Roger Federer holds many records, but it does not make him feel more than the players in the past. The Maestro told him that he still had many reasons for inspiration to continue playing.
`I do not feel more than the rest because if the players of the past were not there, we would not have it all now, the Swiss said. For me, they were a source of inspiration. You can not compare players from different generations. It is impossible.`
`The media constantly reminds me: if you win here, it will happen; if you achieve this result, you will be the best of all times. When I started playing tennis, I did not think about it all. I did not want records, just to be happy. The records came later. As a child I dreamed to play 50, 000 people and enjoy them. I hope I did it.`
Roger responded to a question that has continued to be relevant for so many years - what is the reason he wants to continue playing and winning Wimbledon?
`I want to be there once more. And even before I pick adviced by atp rankings up the trophy, I feel the tension of a match, show my team how competitive I am. There are so many reasons that motivate me to continue playing.`, Federer said.

John Milman`s Amazing Tennis Story
As the game progressed, the audience of Arthur Ashe Stadium, who adored Roger Federer, was getting more and more nervous. Ivan Ljubicic was sitting motionless, biting his mouth at another Maestro`s mistake. Federer`s wife, Mirka, screamed unbelievingly on the head when the Swiss lost the third set.
It looked like another victory in New York`s favorite victory after Federer led with a set and a break with John Milman`s world number 55. The Australian, however, made a sensational turn to remove the big champion and qualify for the first time in his quarterfinals career with the US Open.
Defined by many as a journeyman, the Australian has never reached the last eight in any Grand Slam tournament. Given the game and the energy it showed, however, it is surprising that we first hear about Milman.
Who is he really? Why did you make the big break now? Why exactly against Federer? Here are some facts about the man responsible for the biggest surprise in t he men`s tournament so far:
Before the grass season, Federer invited Millen to co-operate in Switzerland. The Maestro had hardly hoped for such an expression of gratitude, but after last night, the Australian praised:
It reminds me of David Ferrer, and I very much respect this type of player. I love to watch the intensity of their training and the passion they put into the game, said the Swiss.
During a direct broadcast on ESPN, Brad Gilbert said he had received a message from Andy Murray. The Brit explained that Milman loved the hot and humid conditions that they were in yesterday`s New York night. When he does not train with Federer in Switzerland, the Australian prepares to stay in Brisbane, where the temperatures are also very high and the humidity is significant.
Roger is my hero and an example of an object. I like his headquarters as well. He has always been among the readily available players in the dressing room. Whenever I saw him, I s topped to chat. I felt some guilt today because it was certainly not his best day, said Milman.
Until now, the Australian had no win over a top 10 player. His balance in such a match mentioned by tennis predictions is now 1-10. This statistic is not surprising since Milman was never more than 49th in the world, and last October he got to number 218. He never won the title of a single in his career, and only five tennis players with a ranch outsidetop 50 defeated Federer in Grand Slam tournaments. The last case last night was the loss of Sergei Stahovski, a Swiss at Wimbledon in 2013.
Probably most people are in shock that I won. But this is great for tennis -;there may always be surprises.
And before the game, I was of the opinion that I had not accidentally reached the 4th round. I always play, abstaining from the reputation of my opponent. If you manage to achieve it, y ou make it much easier from the beginning.
Milman can boast the best replay statistics of this year`s US Open, alongside Novak Djokovic. The Australian has returned 81% of his opponents` serve. Either 309 successful finishes out of a total of 381 played. He has won 28% of the points when his opponent is executed
