Roger Federer and his records

Roger Federer

Recently Federer got overtaken by Novak Djokovic as the  player who spent most weeks as World no.1. Before that Rafael Nadal had equaled Roger as the men’s player with the most number of Grand Slams. But there are some records that still belong solely to Roger Federer.

Federer is still the player to have spent the most consecutive weeks as World No.1. He was no.1 for 237 consecutive weeks. Federer has won the Wimbledon and the Dubai Tennis Championships both eight times which is a record. He is still the oldest man ever to have been World no.1. He achieved that feat at 36 years of age. Last but not the least, he has won the World Tour Finals six times, again a record.
