I havenââ¬â¢t played in Paris for a long time, so I am really excited to go back there because Bercy is a place where I donââ¬â¢t have a lot of great memories yet. I am still fighting to have a couple of good matches there. I think I have won a lot of fans over the years when playing at Roland Garros, so hopefully they will travel a few kilometres away and come and support me."

As well as securing the end of season No. 1 slot, Federer is also in line to secure a $1.5m payout from the ATP Masters Series Bonus Pool. The $3 million ATP Masters Series Bonus Pool pays $1.5m, $750,000, $500,000 and $250,000 respectively to the world's top four players in the year-end ATP Race standings (released after Tennis Masters Cup) provided they have played eight of the season's nine ATP Masters Series tournaments, including Madrid and Paris.
Tja, dat klinkt overtuigend. En als hij komt, laat-ie zich er natuurlijk ook niet zomaar aftikken of geeft hij op, zoals vele anderen zouden doen om rust te pakken voor volgende week. Dan heeft hij dus 3 finales op rij gespeeld (neem aan dat hij die haalt in Parijs) en komt-ie helemaal vertieft aan in Shanghai.. :roll:
