RF

( A Must Read…. By laalithya_bondili ). Dreams really do come true ❤️ I'm not someone who is comfortable putting my emotions out on social media, but this is one video I know I'll keep coming back to - just to remind myself that some dreams really can find their way to you. I grew up watching Roger Federer. During the eight years I played competitive tennis in school, he wasn't just a player I admired — he was the player for me. My idol. The one who made tennis feel like magic. Back then, growing up in India, the thought of watching him play in person felt like one of those dreams that was simply too far away to ever become real. And yet, there l was... watching him from so close, in the same section as his family, trying to process the fact that the person I had watched on a screen for years was actually right in front of me. I don't think words will ever be enough to explain what that moment felt like 🥹 had happy tears the second he walked onto the court. And when the match ended, those tears turned into something completely different - because it suddenly hit me that I may never get to watch him play a Grand Slam again, now that I'm finally at a place in lite where I can actually travel and experience one. I even had tickets to the doubles semifinals and finals on the following days, but I couldn't bring myself to go. The court was still there. The stadium was still there. The Grand Slam was still there. But RF wasn't 🥹 . . This was more than watching a tennis match for me. It felt like meeting a part of my childhood, a part of my dreams, and a part of the person I once was - all at once. Some moments stay with you forever ❤️ This will be one of mine. I love you, @rogerfederer And no matter what, you will always be *the one and only G.O.A.T. for me ❤️ Thank you @usopen for bringing him back .
