Roger Federer says he is "excited" and "pumped up" as he targets a ninth Wimbledon title -- a far cry from the disgruntled figure who exited Halle in the second round earlier this month. The 39-year-old Swiss accepted the manner of his 4-6, 6-3, 6-2 defeat by Felix Auger-Aliassime both on and off the court had fallen short of the high standards he has set over the past two decades. "I mean, I had a mental moment where I was just, you know, not happy with how things were going in the match," Federer said at his pre-Wimbledon press conference on Saturday. "I mean, that feeling when I started not liking -- when things derail. "It was definitely also there's ways to lose and a standard I set for myself how I go about things. "The good thing now looking back is I know it will not happen here because I'm ready, I'm excited, I'm pumped up."More Related News
