Roger

A Swiss maestro 
A genius in his own right,
There’s no way he would face defeat when he knew victory beckons
Wimbledon 2003, the year which started off this legend.

Classic matches with Nadal, Rodrick, Djokovic and Murray
Despite the circumstances, he didn’t appear in a hurry.

That classic match 2017
The Australian open final with his ailing foe Nadal
Back and forth, and at the last he looked like he would fail,
Yet with his backhand smooth and forehand to point 
It’s was like a blessing from God, where he just got anoint.

This magnificent artist of the modern game
We all have our memories, which one did you shall go down the hall of fame?

2009 French open triumph to complete the grand slam?
Or that golden period in the 2000s when he was virtually impervious? 
Or the inaugural win in 2003?
For me personally, it was his play, an immaculate artist on the tennis court, simply set free.
