Federer provides top function Kraijcek Besides tennis player and legend, Roger Federer is already an influential man in the global world of tennis. "In a few years, Richard Krajicek can be the director and chairman of the ATP."
In an interview with the NOS the Swiss, who is president of the ATP players council, explains why Krajicek didn't get the job as chairman of the international tennis organization. A function where the forty year old Dutchman did apply for.
"I like Richard and we had some good conversations just before and after the vote. He was nice enough to call me and express his feelings and I did the same before that. It was nothing personal clears Federer, who participates in the ABN Amro tennis tournament that starts on Monday, the air. (not sure that the right expression but couldn't find a better one)
"But I actually thought it would be better for him if he could combine the CEO and chairmanship position in the future. And that he shouldn't go for that small position now ."
"Chances for several years" Krajicek withdrew himself in december 2011 for this position as successor of Adam Helfant, after it was shown that he received no support from Federer. On four votes of other top tennis players, such as Rafael Nadal, Krajicek could count on.
Federer hinted that he thought the Dutch former Wimbledon winner has not had enough experience. He is more diplomatic now: "It seemed to me that it would be wiser for everyone if Richard would resign from this job. But I understood that he really would go for this job. He also did have a lot of support from the players association. But I think he could get a bigger opportunity in several years. ''
ABN Amro tournament As ATP chairman Krajicek would had to give up his job in Rotterdam. Now he stays for three more years in that position. On Monday the first matches are in the first round. (yeah it's even a weird sentence in dutch) Federer, the first seed comes only Wednesday in action.

"Federer is the best ambassador we could have. Not just the way he plays, but the way he conducts himself." “The question about Roger ‘is he going to get back to No.1?’ I don’t think that should be the focus.We're happy we have him around."
: "What is the perfect calendar? There is never going to be a perfect calendar." "Television & sponsors make the decisions (re scheduling). That's wrong. It should be the players."
←より長いのに入れ替えました。 ←追加しました ” It’s quite incredible that it took me 7 years to come back here and defend my title . I hope it’s not another 7 years but if it is that’ll mean I’ll be playing for another 7 years which is a good thing ”
映像けっこう取ったのですが、42倍ズームなのはいいが、かえって震えがひどくて、腕が疲れてしまい、時間が短い上あまり画像が良くありません。 ほんとに、ごめんなさい。日本の皆さんに見せるんだ!と撮ったのですがテレビのほうが比べ物にならないくらいいい画像。。。。 You Tube に乗せるには一回全部見てから出ないとだめだし、タイトルつけないとだし、でとりあえず自分のとこにアップしました。
