The 18

I note that my tennis hero Roger Federer is into his 18th grand slam final. He's won 13 of 17 so far. His losses have been three times at Roland Garros and at Wimbledon last year.

If he wins in Australia on Sunday he'll equal my previous hero's record of 14. 'Pistol' Pete Sampras was a monster at Wimbledon. He won seven there, five US Opens and twice in Australia. None in Paris.

Sound familiar?
