One of the greatest sportsman, might be a better way to phrase it. And he definitely is.
That might work better yeah. For pure athletic ability, even though he is great in that regard too, there are better ones out there. But Federers skill and accomplishments puts him on that list of the greatest ever.

Would guess that Tennis is more physically demanding than other popular sports (not counting Athletics). Incredible the amount of stamina required.
Federer too good today. Murray wasn't particularly below par but would've been nice if he took it to 4 or 5 sets. Hope he wins the final
Stamina to play for five or six hours coupled with the explosive strength to repeatedly hammer home serves at 130 mph. They really are incredible athletes.
