Roger Federer defeated David Goffin to claim a record 10th Noventi Open title on Sunday. The 37-year-old took to social media saying that it’s, “Good to be 10 again.” Coincidentally Federer’s twin daughters, Charlene and Myla, turn 10 in exactly a month.
“I turned 10 before them, they are turning 10 in July,” Federer told media in Halle, cracking a laugh. “I feel young again. Anyway, on the flight and then at home later tomorrow morning, when I wake up, I’ll feel old again. But for now I feel young.”
This is the first time the Swiss star has claimed 10 titles at one tournament and it’s his third triumph of the year, giving him a total of 102 tour-level trophies. It has been a tremendous year for Federer, who is the first player to claim three tour-level titles in 2019. He also owns a 32-4 record, and his 88.9 winning percentage is the best of anyone on the ATP Tour.
