The Austrialian open started well, and ended not too well for me. It was sad to see Roger Federer and Andy Murray playing the final. Federer being my best tennis player, and Murray representing our nation. It was sad to see Murray hold back tears, but like Federer said, he is a good player that will one day fulfil his dream. He fought a good fight, knocking out great players like Rafael Nadal, Cilic, etc but couldn't do the same with the great man, Federer. It is good to see him move to the third place in the world, and i have no doubt that he will one day hold the number 1 title. 

Roger Federer had just broken another record of being the first dad to win a slam. He told the press that there will always be a record set for him, and he wish to break them all. I am 100% sure that he can break any record set for him if he is fit and well. A great player of our time, winning 16 slam to set a record that might take years to break. 

I develop great love for tennis because of the outstanding play of Roger. I would love to see one of my children play tennis in future and to be able to break the record set by this great man of our time. I am his fan anytime even though he does not know i exist. When something is good, it will only be a sin not to acknowledge it. I acknowledge this great man and i wish him all the best. I look forward to see him fly again in the next slam. See you Federer at the French open.

"I think what i have learnt the most about this project is.......wait for it....is SELF BELIEF. If an artist or anyone, writes, sings, dances or sculpts etc and believes they have done a good job, well thats all that matters....i have doubted myself in the past, lacked believing in myself and what i can achieve....”
