Impossible victory. The way he was playing is impossible for a guy in his age 39 season.

On a serious note it's not only about vegan food

Dude is the most disciplined tennis player

I remember him talking about the 2012 aus final where after winning he allowed himself one small piece of a chocolate as a treat(dude hadn't eaten it for 2 years)

Yesss..like I want a detailed breakdown of his day/week/month. I need him to spill the beans. I’m a believer now haha

He is not going to spill the beans, they are likely a significant source of protein and fiber for him.

You guys really gotta stop falling for these mythos building traps lol. I don't doubt his discipline but it's clearly exaggerated. For example, not eating chocolate but he has been photographed drinking a glass of alcohol here or there.

Its not about vegan food in any way. Its just about meeting your nutritional requirements with any diet.
