Well-rested Federer set to defend his Masters crown

SHANGHAI: A lengthy career up to age 35, an Olympic gold in the 2008 Olympic Games and having Brad Pitt play him in a movie.

These are the things world No 1 Roger Federer is hoping for in the future as he heads to Shanghai to fight for his fourth Masters Cup title.

The Swiss racquet wizard has little to prove on the tennis court after achieving an incredible high with 12 Grand Slam titles and finishing No 1 in the world for four consecutive years. He is ready to slow down, however, but he expects a long run.
