Roger Federer Wins Dubai Tennis Championships
The 17-time Grand Slam champion 'Roger Federer' proved this week that he still has elite tennis left in him when he defeated No. 2 Novak Djokovic and No. 6 Tomas Berdych to win the Dubai Tennis Championships. It was his sixth title in Dubai and his 78th title overall.
As most things are this late in his legendary career, this victory was very significant for Federer. It broke the tie that he had with John McEnroe to put him alone in third place overall for the most ATP titles in history, behind only Jimmy Connors and Ivan Lendl. It also marked the 14th straight year that he has won at least one title.
Federer told the press after his victory over Djokovic that he hoped that his turn in Dubai would be a launching pad for the rest of his season.
