Roger Federer reveals why he is jealous of Pete Sampras and Rod Laver

Roger Federer has the most impressive stats that you will ever find in an athlete. He constitutes a blend of tennis greats like Pete Sampras, Bjorn Borg, Jimmy Connors, John McEnroe, Boris Becker, and Arthur Ashe, and hence, considered much better than the lot. Among his dozens of all-time records, he has won 20 Grand Slam singles titles, has held the No. 1 spot in the ATP rankings for 302 weeks, and has won six or more titles at six different tournaments. In an on-court interview, Federer said that when legends watch him play matches live, it’s always a special emotion.  "I love seeing Rod Laver here, thanks for coming out and watching some tennis,” he said.  “I think I can speak on behalf of all the players, it's such a pleasure when the legends come out to watch the current generation of players. It means the world. He and Pete Sampras have such better nicknames than me, that's the thing I am most jealous about. The Rocket and the Pistol. I got nothing, so I still got a lot of work to do!"
