Roger Federer wants to be fit and firing again at next years Australian Open after missing the second half of this season through injury.Federer has chosen to sit out the rest of 2016 in order to recover fully from his knee surgery in February, as well as a back problem that ruled him out of the French Open in May.The 35-year-olds last match was his semi-final defeat to Milos Raonic at Wimbledon and, as well as the Olympic Games in Rio, he has dropped out of the US Open, which starts on Monday.It was a tough decision to say the least, but in some ways a simple decision because your health is the most important thing, Federer told national newspapers.I dont see it as the end of something, its the beginning of something. When I come back to the Hopman Cup and then to the Australian Open -- thats what Im working for now.Federer did travel to New York for the launch of the Laver Cup on Wednesday, a new team event to be played between Europe and the Rest of the World, starting in Prague in September next year.The Swiss has signed up to the competition, along with world number five Rafael Nadal, and believes he will come back stronger in 2017.Im doing well and training as much as possible, Federer said. Ive been strengthening my quad muscles for when I head into the gym in the next couple of months.I remain very upbeat but in a way its painful to be here, and it was hard watching the Olympics and not playing. I hope to be super strong when I come back in January.Federer reached the US Open final 12 months ago and his absence will harden the views of those that consider this years mens tournament a two-horse race.Novak Djokovic, the winner of four of the last five grand slams, will be the top seed but Andy Murray is the player in form, having won Queens, Wimbledon and an Olympic gold medal already this summer.It hasnt really changed my opinion that Novak is the favourite, despite a few tough losses, Federer said.He did win [the Rogers Cup] in Toronto. He has a great record against Andy and is a great hard court player, you see that in the conditions like here and at the Australian Open.I think the the new roof (over Arthur Ashe Stadium) will help him as well, as it will be more like Australia. Of course Andy is a great player in the wind, but then so is Novak.But I have been very impressed by Andy, what he has done this summer has been incredible. I hope he can keep that going.I think it will be a very exciting US Open and probably a great race between them until the end of the season.Fake Vapormax 2020 .

McCarthy, a player who played some games in the second tier for Wigan at the start of this season, would go on to shine inside Evertons midfield, outplaying the man he was brought in to replace, on one of the grandest stages in English football. On Saturday, it was fitting that Manchester Uniteds most recent dagger into the chest was delivered by Frenchman Yohan Cabaye, a wonderfully gifted central midfielder who put on an outstanding effort for Newcastle at Old Trafford.Red Bull boss Christian Horner admits he was surprised with the way Ferrari threw away the chance of a podium with Sebastian Vettels strategy in Japan.Vettel was running third behind Max Verstappen and ahead of Lewis Hamilton when Ferrari decided to extend his penultimate stint, before switching to soft tyres. However, that sacrificed track position to Hamilton and, despite a few laps challenging the world champion, Vettels tyres soon faded and he had to settle for fourth.Horner thinks Ferrari sacrificed a strong position by putting Vettel on the softest compound at the end of the race. ?We toyed with that because once you have been undercut, then you have to try something different. So we went longer, but the tyres were dropping off at a point where we didnt think we could get to the end on the soft.So it was a question of again going on the hard. But what really surprised us was Sebastian going onto the soft tyre when he was in the position of reasonable strength around Max with 19 laps to go.dddddddddddd That surprised us quite a bit.Horner believes the decision was especially baffling as Ferrari had looked stronger on raw pace.I think pace-wise this weekend they were strong, arguably slightly stronger than us. This track you are at full-throttle longer, its one of the higher engine dependant circuits so I was delighted that we could convert our grid positions into positive points and I think strategically we were stronger as well.We made the most of the position we had with Max, he drove a very mature race and we expected, had Ferrari stopped a lap later, for them to be putting Max under pressure at the end of the race. But they chose a different route and in the end assisted Lewis and the pressure came from Lewis rather than Seb. ' ' '
