Roger Federer
Roger Federer won his 20th grand slam after defeating Marin Cilic in the final. The 36-year old bested the Croatian in a 5-set match at the Rod Laver Arena. The Swiss ace is the oldest Grand Slam winner in the history of the sport. Here is how Twitter reacted to the 20th Grand Slam win.
Roger Federer is a legend who can't be appreciated with adjectives anymore. #Federer #AustralianOpenfinal

At 36 years 173 days, Roger Federer becomes the oldest man to win a Grand Slam title since Ken Rosewall in 1972.
He has also now won three Grand Slam titles after turning 35. Rosewall is the only other man to
have done so in the past. #AusOpen— Nikhila (@kokudum) January 28, 2018
Each time you say, Roger Federer should retire on a high, he just raises the bar higher and stays on to keep fighting. Unbelievable athletism and class!

It's rare you see a sportsman universally well liked and supported, where it's hard to find bad opinions or negativity regarding him. Roger Federer is one of these people and that is why he is the GOAT.

I would love for Roger Federer to win the French Open again, just so history will show he's won more than one slam for each of them.
