Roger Federer has never served better against me than he did in Friday’s match on Centre Court, and I hope he never does it again.
It was the 24th time we’ve played each other, and in our last match at the O2 in November I only won one game, but even then it wasn’t like I was getting aced off the court and couldn’t touch the ball.
At one point on Friday I looked up at the scoreboard and it was 3-2 and he’d served nine aces, and I thought, ‘What’s going on?’ It was his best serving performance in one of our matches and not just by a little bit, by far.
