The incredible comeback continues for the great champion.
Roger Federer won a record-tying fifth ATP BNP Paribas Open men's singles crown as he defeated close friend Stan Wawrinka 6-4, 7-5 in an all-Swiss final at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden.
The Swiss endured more than six-month injury lay-off at the end of 2016, but returned to the ATP Tour at the start of the season in spectacular fashion, capturing his 18th Grand Slam championship at
the Australian Open.
Victory in Indian Wells 2017 marks Federer’s 90th tour-level crown
and his 25th ATP World Tour Masters 1000 title. At 35 years old, he is the oldest Masters 1000 Tennis champion.
When Federer is flowing like this, it's still impossible to live with him, even after all those years in theTennis court. He's just getting better and better like good wine and competing with him in this mode is like playing Poker with the witch - you're gonna lose. Credit to Stan Wawrinka though, he played a great tournament too. Watching Federer play like this, radiating pure bliss and happiness makes you wonder if this man is eternal. If he wins another grand slam the World number 1 spot is in the horizon again for him.
