Roig also explicated that if Nadal wouldn’t be playing, Federer would have retired five years ago. However, they are motivating and making each other better year after year.
“All these three guys Novak, Roger, and Rafa maybe because they are together on this run in this race, one motivates the other one. Probably if Rafa didn’t exist Roger would have stopped playing tennis five years ago,” Roig said on Tennis Legends at Eurosport.

“But because of this, I think one makes the other one better. And the ambition is huge. I mean, I can see sometimes with Rafa, he’s winning a tournament, a 250 tournament in the ATP and he’s so happy about that. I mean a guy who has won 12, 13 Grand Slams when he was like this and he was playing sometimes small tournaments, not anymore. And he was so happy about that,” he added.
“You can see how much he likes to win, still winning. Otherwise, there is no chance at this age after such a big success to try to keep winning tournaments. You need this ambition,” Francis concluded.
