Federer, the Emperor



Most of the people say that Federer's reign has come to an end after his defeat to Nadal in Wimbledon finals. But I could not accept that. We cannot judge his class act just by a single defeat. If you would have seen the finals (I saw till the second rain interruption in 5th set), Federer made errors in the crucial points. His invincible serve was broken by Nadal in first 2 sets because of his own errors. Definitely, Nadal's game has improved a lot comparing to his previous encounters with Federer. His confidence against Federer has improved. I love to watch Natural grass court players somehow, like Becker, Edberg, Sampras and Federer.

Its Federer's class which has definitely improved the opponent's game to compete with him. He has taken the game to the next level. Though he's not at his best, he's reaching Semis and Finals in Grandslams. Come on, who said his reign is ended...

Watch out guys, the emperor will be back!!

Books I read

Recently I read these books. Both are autobiographical and unfinished.Both gave the experience of being with them while reading.


"Meetings with remarkable men", the second series of Gurdjieff's "All and everything". One of my favorite.I watched the movie (1979) filmed based on this book. But it could not capture the beauty of writing and did not give the experience I had while reading.










"My Days", R.K.Narayan. Just liked the narration in his style.
