i was a step closer today meeting someone i respect on and off the tennis court. after watching federer and blake punish stroke perfection, one after another, for 2 hours straight, in the blazing hot sun, roger signs autographs before walking off the practice court. he took the time to autograph everyone’s items, included my hat! it was great. ken snapped the perfect photo (thanks ken!). i couldn’t help to say some silly remark to the extent of ‘you’re the man roger!’… he looked up, nodded, and smiled. it was great. first-class act.
