Watched most of the game last night which Federer lost. For those unfamiliar, this is the all time Grand Slam table (see below).

Goes to show how "legendary" Federer is! He has still somemore good years... Only 28 yrs old this year.

Jimmy Connors said "In an era of specialists - you're either a clay court specialist, a grass court specialist or a hard court specialist... or you're Roger Federer".
