Jack Kramer, Cliff Drysdale, Rod Laver, Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Patrick McEnroe, and even Toni Nadal (Rafael Nadal's uncle) are on record saying Federer is "the greatest tennis player of all time." They NEVER said "one of the greatest players of all time." The latter is mere bias on the part of certain contributors. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/74.93.186.174|74.93.186.174]] ([[User talk:74.93.186.174#top|talk]]) 00:19, 9 July 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

New Apparel Sponsor
Federer announced a new 10 year deal with Japanese sporting co Uniqlo at $30 million a year. Ravishankarruchir21 (talk) 19:15, 10 June 2018 (UTC)
Grammar error
Where Fed's back injury is first mentioned there is a grammatical error around the verb 'prove'. 2a00:23c6:781:4700:101f:66f1:f732:dc47 (talk) 16:19, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
Done Fixed from prove to proved. Thanks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 18:32, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
Grammar (kind of)
How about changing;
Mirka had retired from the tour in 2002 because of a foot injury, seven years before she married Federer.[34] They were married... in 2009
To: Mirka retired from the tour in 2002 because of a foot injury.[34] They were married seven years later. 120.16.68.181 (talk) 18:10, 29 June 2018 (UTC)MBG
Done Not quite as requested but you are correct that it was a redundant line. Thanks for pointing it out. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:24, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
Experts are on record saying Federer is "the greatest of all time," NOT "one of the greatest of all time"
Jack Kramer, Cliff Drysdale, Rod Laver, Bjorn Borg, Pete Sampras, Patrick McEnroe, and even Toni Nadal (Rafael Nadal's uncle) are on record saying Federer is "the greatest tennis player of all time." They NEVER said "one of the greatest players of all time." The latter is mere bias on the part of certain contributors. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.93.186.174 (talk) 00:19, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
