Swiss maestro Roger Federer insisted that he is still at his best after recently winning Halle Open and called it wrong to write him off.

According to Daily Star, Federer who has just won one of the last 13 Grand Slams, warmed up to Wimbledon by beating Mikhail Youzhny 6-7 (5-7) 6-3 6-4.

Federer said that he has won a lot in his career but not recently and it is wrong to write him off as the attention turns to SW19.

According to the report, Federer said that may be people thought he was playing badly but that is not the case, as when the title mattered others were better.
