Roger Federer is a Swiss born professional tennis player. Federer began playing tennis with his parents and older sister Diana at a very early age and quickly showed signs that he had great talent for the game.
In 2001 Roger's potential came to full bloom when he won his first ATP singles title. He followed this triumph at the Davis Cup where he and his fellow Swiss teammates defeated the United States. All of these successes led to the press coining the term "Federer Express" in their headlines. Roger went on to win his first two ATP doubles titles and end the season ranked #13 in singles.
Roger Federer would eventually become the number one ranked player in the world, a title he held for a record 237 consecutive weeks from February 2004 to August 2008. As of August 2013, he has won Wimbledon seven times, the Australian Open four times, the French Open once and the US Open five times. Federer has become one of the highest paid athletes in the world both on and off the court.
