Former world number one tennis player, Pete Sampras, insists that 17-time Grand Slam winner, Roger Federer, can play for a period of four more years, during which he can add a few more majors to his kitty.
'I'm amazed that he (Federer) is up for more tennis,' the Associated Press quoted Sampras, who will be featuring in an exhibition match against Andre Agassi in London on March 3.
'He has done everything in the game and he could walk away tomorrow feeling great about it. But he still wants to travel and compete and I'm in awe of it. He is a true lover of the sport.
'I thought his level was quite good,' he added on Federer's Australian Open match against Rafael Nadal. 'When you're playing against Rafa and if you're not quite on your game then it can seem like you're struggling. Rafa is a rock. But I do see Roger building from that, I think he's going to do well this year.
'That's why he's playing, I don't think he's playing for anything else but to win some more majors,' he said when asked if the Swiss could win another Grand Slam. 'As long as Roger is enjoying it and he's healthy, I can see him playing for another two, three, four more years.'
