Roger Federer: “I do not fear Novak Djokovic”

Roger Federer has insisted revenge will not be on his mind when he faces Novak Djokovic at the ATP Finals. The Swiss will need a win against the Serbian to make progress in the end-of-season event. It will be the 49^th meeting between the two great stars. When Federer was asked if he is over the defeat at Wimbledon, he said: “We’ll find out, but I think it’s all flushed away from my side. A lot of water has gone under the bridge since then. We have played a lot of matches since, and I think we both look back at a great match. “I think we both can take away some confidence from the match – him obviously a lot, me maybe a bit less. But at the end of the day, I don’t know, I wasn’t hoping he would not be in my section or in my draw. I didn’t hope I was never going to play him again. “Actually, it’s good for me to play him again, and maybe that all helps to get a chance to get him back or whatever it is. But at the end of the day, I’m here for the World Tour Finals and not because of the Wimbledon final. It’s logical to be asked, it’s fine, but I’m personally excited to play against Novak on Thursday.” Source- Tennis365
