球王终于还是被淘汰没有进入上海大师杯的半决赛，最后一场跟Murray的巅峰对决，带着伤痛的他依然奉献给球迷最精彩最好看的网球，真的很希望他可以再拿几个大满贯，一群新生代来势汹汹野心勃勃，但是几乎没有人可以像他一样让网球那么beautiful, 那么elegant. "The Roger Federer Story: Quest for Perfection"记录了球王在追求完美历程上的成长蜕变，很多东西值得尊敬和学习：

冠军品质:

"It's nice to be important - but it's more important to be nice."

"talent, ambition, the necessary will to endure"

"honest, direct, vivacious"

"he can be serious if he wants to be"

"modest but self-confident, friendly but determined"

"mental execution has since been equipped with a stubborn head and courage."

"I'm very all-around, of course. Not the big weapon, let's say,...My ability is to be like a chameleon, maybe."

"perspective, patience, respect for the opponent and the desire to always give his best"

磨砺成功:

"This was a basic rule for success. The pressure came from all sides - but mostly from himself."

"How could he have known that this painful experience was necessary in order to become the hardened, keen-sighted but yet modest champion who would have the tennis world at his feet?"

"Federer the tennis champion is a puzzle of many pieces. It took years for all the pieces to fit together. Everything fell into place with each moving part working in synchronicity - talent, athleticism, mental strength, self-confidence, ability to concentrate, determination, tactical perception, professionalism, ambition and pride."

追求完美:

"One should be able to play a perfect game."

"He knew that if he rested on his laurels and stayed stagnant, his game would regress."

对待竞争:

"Winners and losers have so much but so little in common. Real champions are those who raise the trophy at the end. The winners stay. The losers go."

"The hunter became the hunted, the pursuer the pursued, the challenger the chanllenged."

取舍:

"I've learned that it is more important to take a break between competitions and to be well-prepared for the next event than it is to play in all of the tournaments."

"Less is more."

回报:

"From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded."

"tennis has given me so much that I'm convinced that I should give something in return. It's not a must for me but it makes me feel much better. I'm proud to support tennis or sports, and I hope the future No.1 player will do this as well."

"To make a dream come true for some people, (Federer said once when asked why he was so patient when signing autographs) when I was a ball boy, I also used to run after all the players in the hallways to get autographs. At home, I would then look the autographs as the catch of the day. I know how it is and I haven't forgotten that."

"It's just like watching Brazil! But Brazil weren't trying to be beautiful when they won the World Cup any more than Federer was when he took the title. Beauty was the art with which he destroyed his opponent."
