The Greatest Tennis Player ever!

I always thought so about Roger Federer and look at how he has proved it to the entire world. The king of Grass has won the kingdom of Grass once again and this time along it comes with the World Record of 15 Grand Slam titles- can you believe it?
Winner of Australian Open in 2004, 2006 and 2007; US Open in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008; Wimbledon in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009 and his lone French Open title earlier this year- that sums up the 15 Grand Slams with which he has outperformed another great Tennis star- Pete Sampras!
When the entire world thought that Federer was good only on grass turf, he proved them wrong with a clean win at the French Open earlier this year with which ironically, he equalled Pete's world record. And now with Wimbledon, he has done it! Later this year, the talented and immensely in form Federer could lift his 6th consecutive US Open title and go on to pick up his 16th- till that happens, let us keep our fingers crossed and raise a toast for the phenomenon that is Federer :-)
