Roger Federer is back!!!
Top-ranked Roger Federer, who had shockingly not won a single tournament all year, won the Estoril Open Sunday after second-seeded Nikolay Davydenko retired with a leg injury while trailing 7-6 (5), 1-2. It's been eight years since Federer needed five tournaments to get a shot at his first trophy of season.
"It's not the way you want to win a tournament, but that's just the way it goes sometime," Federer told the crowd after the match. "It's great to win a title again and to straightaway win my first clay court tournament of the season gives me great confidence going into Monte Carlo."
