Video: Federer on Challenges of Facing Djokovic, and Scruff

Late Tuesday in London Roger Federer talked about the challenges of facing Novak Djokovic after his straight-sets win at the O2 Arena on Tuesday.

“I feel like we play great against each other,” said Federer. “It’s athletic, it’s different. I know he gets to the one more, two more shots back better than anybody and when he does they have more depth and more power. He covers the court better than anyone right now so it’s a great challenge. I enjoy that. I get up for that. It’s still one of the big reasons I’m still playing tennis today.”

Okay, now that that’s covered, let’s get to the important stuff. Is Federer growing a beard? Hear what Federer says about his scruff in this post-match on-court interview below:
