Overall a mixed bag but in the end with more ups and downs. Wasn’t a bad season but when the biggest achievement is a miami title it wasn’t very good either.
Two meaningless big 3 wins and the Federer slam isn’t enough to elevate the score above a 5/10 which is my final rating for his season considering all factors. Were he still in djokovic or nadal’s age-class it would probably fall down to a 4/10 but since winning 4 titles at 37/38 is far from a given I think a 5 is ok.
dont want to go through all the tournaments of this year like I did last 2 times. We‘ve all seen it and it’s tiresome spelling it out in detail again. So here’s a short version. AO: bad, Dubai: ok, Indian Wells: good, Miami: great, Madrid: good but a choke, Rome; good but injured, RG: good but nadal, Halle: meh but a win, Wimbledon: first rule of being a federer fan. Don’t talk about Wimbledon. CincinnatI: very bad, uso: meh then great then terrible. Shanghai: terrible, Basel: great, wtf: terrible, Meh, Great, fuck off
