Roger believes confidence is the main reason he has lost in recent years

Having broken Pete Sampras’ mark of 14 Grand Slam singles titles, Federer missed breaking the American’s 286-week reign at No. 1 by a single week.

“It would be great having that record but my life is very much OK without it, too,” Federer said. “Pete is a good friend and was an amazing champion for our game. I don’t need to break every record he has. I came so close and I could have chased it if I had wanted to. I didn’t choose to.”

Somehow, I don't think it really was his choice, do you?
