Federer placing "family first" is right move

When you have won seventeen grand slam titles like Roger Federer has done, one will wonder "what is one of the most important goals of 2014." For Roger, placing his "family first" is one of those aims. This year, Roger's wife, Mirka, is set to deliver their third child. Her due date is supposed to be in spring/summer, and both parents do not know the "exact due date." Also, both people are being private about it with the media. This move is the other right one, for Roger to do. In two recent news articles online, from the Associated Press and ESPN, the "Swiss Maestro" stated that he would miss the French Open and other tournaments this spring/summer. He would miss those tournaments, to be with his wife during that special birth moment. For Roger, he is showing his unselfish demeanor and people should follow that trait. This week, Roger is playing in Monte Carlo for the ATP World Tour tournament. Roger won his 950th match today, and it was a tough win over Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. The match was a three setter, and Federer was two points away from defeat in the second set. Next, he won the tiebreaker in the second set. Finally, he closed out the match with two breaks of serve in the third set with the score of 6-1. In the semis of Monte Carlo, Roger will play Novak Djokovic for their 34th time. Their rivalry is one of the best ones, as their head to head is almost a .500 percentage. Roger has 17 wins, and Novak has 16 wins; in thirty three matches. Hope it's another great match tomorrow for the two legends. The picture above is of Roger & Novak (rivals, as well as good friends).
