London: Roger Federer believes his record sixth title at the ATP World Tour Finals will be the ideal springboard to end his Grand Slam drought in 2012.

Federer has finished the season without a Grand Slam for the first time since 2002, but the Swiss star will go into the new campaign on the back of a 17-match winning run that brought him trophies in Basel, Paris and at the prestigious end-of-year event at London’s O2 Arena.

“I felt like I played great during these last few weeks and it gives me a lot of confidence for next year,” said Federer after capturing his 70th career title in his 100th final.

“But regardless of how it went here, I would have been in a good state of mind for next year. And I think that counts for all the other top guys as well. For me, it was the strongest finish I’ve ever had in my career, which I’m very proud of. I’m looking forward to next year.

“Sure, to win Grand Slams would be nice. I’ve missed out on a few occasions now this year, and maybe also some last year. So I feel like it might be around the corner,” he said. (AFP)
