I really feel bad for Andy. He can’t seem to get a grand slam and everytime one of the grand slams is within his reach, IT IS ROGER FEDERER WHO GETS IN HIS WAY.

This isn’t the first time he’s teared up. He also teared up in 2010 when he lost to Federer at the finals of the Australian Open.

Federer consoled him then and said: “You will win a grand slam one day. You’re too good of a player, so don’t worry about it.”

Well, he might, but that’ll probably be after Federer retires. But then he has Nadal and Djokovic to contend with.
