He came. He swung his racquet. He conquered.
Roger Federer has created history again. (We wonder if any copy on Federer would ever begin without this statement.)

Roger won his 20th grand slam title by clinching the Australian Open. If you are living under a rock, he is 36 years old.

And what is even more remarkable, is that it did not come as a surprise. For Federer has never given us a chance to ever doubt his genius.
Of course a lot of tears were shed, and Twitter celebrated the champion for his legendary feat.

The greatest thing about Federer is that he’s the GOAT and he still makes you root for him as if he’s the underdog. A factor of his longevity, understated persona, and game aesthetics I guess.

Ending with this tweet, because Federer is indeed an inspiration.
