This is what Roger Federer said about being favourite to win the Australian Open

Recently Novak Djokovic said that the top three are the favourites to win slams this year,

for that Roger Federer had been asked about this comment

Roger Federer the winner of 20 Grand Slam titles which the last one was in Melbourne last year,

The Swiss man thinks too that Rafa, Novak and himself are the favourites to win the slams

and also Alexander Zverev who did a great job in the ATP World Tour Finals last year.

” Yes, I guess so. I mean, look, I think we know how to win slams, Novak, Rafa, myself. I mean,

Rafa has to be the No. 1 favorite, I don’t care how he feels, before the French. Novak is always

a favorite on the hard courts, basically any court of his feeling, 100 per cent, if he plays like

last year. Maybe just because of my amount of titles I have at Wimbledon and other places,

maybe also have to put me in the mix every time, as well.”

“There are other guys, no doubt about it. I think also with Sascha holding the World Tour Finals,

I think it’s fair to say that even though he has not ripped through those slams yet, he will go

deep this year definitely at one of them, maybe even here. We’ll see.”

Roger Federer will face Taylor Fritz in the 3R of the tournament around 3:00 AM GMT
