                 VOYAGE gives you another ticket to meet the greatest tennis player in history with sixteen (16) Grand slams ROGER FEDERER.                   
Roger Federer is a Swiss professional tennis player who held the ATP No 1 position for a record 237 consecutive weeks from 2 February 2004 to 18 August 2008. Federer has occupied the No1 ranking for 285 overall weeks, one week short of the record 286 weeks held by Pete Sampras. As of 25 June 2012, he is ranked World No. 3. Federer has won a man's record 16 Grand Slam singles titles. He is one of seven male players to capture the career Grand Slam and one of three (with Andre Agassi and Rafael Nadal) to do so on three different surfaces (clay, grass, and hard courts). He is the only male player in tennis history to have reached the title match of each Grand Slam tournament at least five times and also the final at each of the nine ATP Masters 1000 tournaments.

       Federer was born in Binningen, Arlesheim near Basel, to Swiss national Robert Federer and South African-born Lynette Durand, of Dutch and French Huguenot ancestry. He holds both Swiss and South African citizenship. He grew up in nearby Münchenstein, close to the French and German borders and speaks Swiss German, German, French and English fluently, Swiss German being his native language. Like all male Swiss citizens, Federer was subject to compulsory military service in the Swiss Armed Forces. However, in 2003 he was deemed unfit due to a long-standing back problem and was subsequently not required to fulfill his military obligation. Federer himself also credits the range of sports he played as a child (he also played badminton and basketball) for his hand-eye coordination. Most tennis prodigies, by contrast, play tennis to the exclusion of all other sports. He was raised as a Roman Catholic and met Pope Benedict XVI while playing the 2006 Internazionali BNL d'Italia tournament in Rome.
 Many sports analysts, tennis critics, and former and current players consider Federer to be the greatest tennis player of all time.

  Federer has appeared in an unprecedented 23 career Grand Slam tournament finals, including a men's record ten in a row, and appeared in 18 of 19 finals from the 2005 Wimbledon Championships through to the 2010 Australian Open, the lone exception being the 2008 Australian Open. He holds the record of reaching the semifinals or better of 23 consecutive Grand Slam tournaments over five and a half years, from the 2004 Wimbledon Championships through the 2010 Australian Open.  At the 2012 French Open, he reached a record 31st Grand Slam semifinal (tied with Jimmy Connors) and a record 32nd consecutive Grand Slam quarterfinal. He also holds the record for most match wins in Grand Slam tournaments (239).

His name is NOVAK DJOKOVIC from Belgrade in Serbia. No 1 by ATP since 4 July 2011 and win 5 Grand slams. He started playing tennis at the age of four (4). In the summer 1993, the six-year-old was spotted by Yugoslav tennis legend Jelena Genčić (woman who plays tennis and handball) at Serbian Mount Kopaonik where Djokovic's parents ran a fast-food parlour. Genčić worked with young Djokovic over the following six years before realizing that, due to his rapid development, going abroad in search of increased level of competition was the best option for his future. To that end, she contacted Nikola Pilić, and in September 1999, the 12-year-old moved to the Pilić tennis academy in Oberschleißheim, Germany, spending four years there. At age 14, he began his international career, winning European championships in singles, doubles, and team competition.

The First Voyage you can make is the one with your feeling. "Even though we have all been programmed to hide our feelings and react defensively and not lovingly, we can retrain ourselves...Many people grow up too quickly because they reject and suppress their feelings. They may attempt to suppress their feelings, but the pain and unhappiness continue to affect them". At this point the best thing to do is just expressing your feeling anytime you get an opportunity before it becomes too late.
