Boris Becker, German tennis icon, is expecting a lot more to come from the players like Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, who refused to obey age and injuries to reach the Australian Open final with the Federer winning it.

In an interaction during Laurels World Sports Award, Becker said "Before the start of the Australian Open, everyone had been asking where do they go? After the tournament, they have shown that they go to the very top. They showed some real drive. The way Federer played in Melbourne, it goes on to show that there is more to come and that is true for Nadal also."

Commenting on Federer winning 18 Grand Slam Titles, he said "Winning 18 Grand Slams is huge. Who does that? But Federer made it look so easy and effortless. His elegance and classy way of achieving it is something that not many sports persons will be able to replicate in future."

"Tennis at the top level is about mentality and not so much about form. The maturity of a player is important," Three-times Wimbledon Champion ended.
