Federer showing early signs of Dementia. The affliction is apparently related more to the number of kids than the number of years. Two more kids and Mirka will 'arrive'. Didn't know she was this smart!!!!

 

(Reuters) - Roger Federer has won a record 17 grand slam titles and played in over 1000 tour matches but even a champion of his standing can forget when he is on match point - as he showed at the Gerry Weber Open on Saturday.

With champion Federer on the verge of defeating Kei Nishikori to reach his ninth final at the Halle grasscourt tournament, the world number four suffered a moment of memory loss when his Japanese opponent clipped a backhand into the net on match point.

Federer quickly retreated to the baseline, unaware of his 6-3 7-6(4) triumph, while a confused Nishikori approached the net to shake hands much to the amusement of the German crowd.

"It was the first time in my career in over a thousand matches," a bemused Federer said of his faux pas after he set up a final with Colombia's Alejandro Falla.

Everybody thought that was funny, including the Maestro himself. Wish I had that kind of focus. Never mind what month, day, year, or point it is ... just keep serving. Hee.
