Proclaimed the greatest player of all time by TENNIS magazine on its September 2009 cover, Roger Federer claimed the all-time record for Grand Slam singles titles by winning Wimbledon, his 15th major victory, in 2009. The Swiss stylist opened 2010 by beating Andy Murray to win his record-extending 16th Grand Slam singles title at the Australian Open. Federer won Wimbledon five consecutive times from 2003 to 2007 and lost in the 2008 final to rival Rafael Nadal in what is considered by many to be the best match ever played. The lost was Federer’s first on grass since 2002 and ended a record 65-match winning streak on that surface. He won his sixth Wimbledon title in 2009 by outdueling Andy Roddick, 5-7, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5), 3-6, 16-14 in the final. Federer has also won the U.S. Open five times and the Australian Open four times. He completed the career Grand Slam by winning the French Open in 2009 after having lost to Nadal in the final each of the previous three years. In 2006, Federer became the first man since Rod Laver in 1969 to make all four Grand Slam finals in a calendar year, winning three of them; he repeated that feat in 2007. He also made all four finals in 2009, winning two. Federer has reached at least the semifinals of the past 22 Grand Slam events, a record. Federer held the world No. 1 ranking for a record 237 consecutive weeks from Feb. 2, 2004 until Aug. 18, 2008. He regained the No. 1 ranking on July 6, 2009. Federer won five titles in nine finals in 2010, stretching his streak of winning at least three titles in a season to nine consecutive years. Robin Soderling upset Federer in the French Open quarterfinals, snapping the Swiss' streak of 23 straight Grand Slam semifinals that stretched back to the 2004 Wimbledon. On June 7, 2010, Nadal surpassed him to take over the top spot. Federer spent 285 weeks as World No. 1, one week short of tying Pete Sampras' all-time record. Federer failed to convert two match points in falling to Djokovic in a 3 hour, 44-minute U.S. Open semifinal. Federer closed the year beating Nadal to win his fifth season-ending ATP World Tour Finals title. In 2011, Federer defeated Djokovic in the Roland Garros semifinals, snapping the Serbian's 41-match winning streak in 2011; he lost to Nadal in the final. For the second straight year, the Swiss squandered two match points in a U.S. Open semifinal setback to Djokovic. Federer snapped a 10-month title drought winning his hometown tournament in Basel for the fifth time. He collected his 18th Masters Series shield beating Jo-Wilfried Tsonga to win the Paris Masters championship for the first time. Federer won a record sixth ATP World Tour Finals title in London, claiming his 70th career championship in his 100th final and surpassing Murray for the No. 3 spot in the rankings. Federer earned his 807th career victory, sixth on the all-time list. In Februay, 2012, Federer swept Juan Martin del Potro to collect his 71st title in Rotterdam. He collected his fifth career Dubai title in March, sweeping Andy Murray in the final. The third-seeded Swiss swept arch rival Rafael Nadal, 6-3, 6-4, in the semifinals before defeating John Isner, 7-6 (7), 6-3, in the Indian Wells final to collect his record-equaling 19th Masters 1000 title, including his fourth Indian Wells crown. Federer fended off Tomas Berdych, 3-6, 7-5, 7-5, to capture his third career Madrid championship and become the first three-time winner in the event's 11-year history. It was his 74th career title and with the win he regained the No. 2 ranking from Nadal. Federer is the son of a South African mother and a Swiss father. He married former pro player Mirka Vavrinec in April 2009. Mirka gave birth to identical twin girls, Myla and Charlene, in July 2009.
