This episode is a discussion with esteemed New York Times journalist and friend of the pod Chris Clarey about his new biography of Roger Federer, titled \\u2018The Master\\u2019. 

Chris speaks to David about the process of writing the book and what he learned along the way, the several exclusives he\\u2019s had with Federer over the years, the 82 interviews he conducted specifically for the book, why the likes of Mirka Federer, Peter Carter and Pierre Paganini have been fundamental to Federer\\u2019s success, how Federer has changed over the years, and how his rivalries with Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic have shaped him. 

We also get Chris to do a quick-fire Federer round and afterwards David chats to Matt about his impressions of the book.
