Though his tennis playing abilities and endurance might make him seem superhuman, Roger Federer's illness, a common lung infection, has shown that he too is a mere mortal, almost like the rest of us. Almost being the key word; winning 16 Mens Grand Slam titles is something that probably no one will manage. However, Federer is suffering from a lung infection, which will see him miss as much as 6 weeks from the tour.
Federer seemed all set to get a fifth Dubai Open crown, in the process taking back the title from Novak Djokovic, but unfortunately, this illness will keep him from that. Doctors have advised at least 2 weeks rest period, with no tennis played at all. In fact, though Federer went ahead to Dubai to practice for the tournament, he was physically unable to do so, feeling very tired and finding it very difficult to breathe.
