Federer has won 20 titles in the Grand Slam tournaments, less than two of Spain’s Rafael Nadal, and one of Serbia’s Novak Djokovic, including six in Australia, one in French Roland Garros, eight in Wimbledon and five in Flushing Meadows, USA.
Federer won the 2014 Davis Cup title, won the Olympic doubles gold with Stan Wawrinka in 2008 and the silver medal in the singles in London in 2012.
In the ATP Finals (formerly known as the Masters Cup) he won six titles, and won 28 titles in the Masters 1000 (7 Cincinnati, 5 Indian Wells, 4 Miami, 4 Hamburg, 3 Madrid, 2 Canada, 2 Shanghai and 1 Paris) .
