Roger Federer’s coach sends Grand Slam record message to Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic

“He showed that here in 2017. Back then, too, he played very well in training, like now.

“Training meanwhile means a little more to him than before because he plays fewer tournaments. But he was always a big match player. And that’s what ultimately counts.”

Whether or not Federer does win more Grand Slams may depend on how well rising talents such as Daniil Medvedev and Stefanos Tsitsipas perform.

Tennis is in need of the younger generation to step up but Luthi doesn’t think through the breakthrough at the majors will happen this year.
