Roger Federer has said he is not extending his career to stop Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic from beating his Grand Slam record.
The top trio have dominated for well over a decade now and have amassed an astonishing 55 Grand Slam titles between them.
Federer has 20 Grand Slam titles; Nadal has 19, while Djokovic-16.
"I guess it is a little bit of motivation but it is not the reason why I am still on the tour," Federer replied when he was asked if the threat from Nadal and Djokovic was a motivation for him. "I’m really trying to achieve as much as possible that I can, that I can control. It was cool to get to 100 titles in Dubai this year. That was something extraordinary for me. Of course, every record is there to be broken but what Rafa and Novak have done is tremendous, crazy and they will achieve more as well, I know that."
