Federer - I can get better
Wimbledon champion Roger Federer
Wimbledon champion Roger Federer has warned his rivals that his best is yet to come.

The Swiss star came from a set down to defeat Andy Roddick and defend his title but he was not entirely happy with his play.

"There is room for improvement but it is difficult to find time to practise," he told BBC Radio Four.

"I would like to serve and volley more. I did that last year but somehow the confidence was not there this year."

He attributed his ability to fight back against his American opponent to the experience gained last year when he defeated Mark Philippoussis in the final.

"I think my consistency and the experience of winning last year gave me motivation and confidence to win here again.

"I played great tennis at the Australian Open at the beginning of the year. I'm a better player this year but to play so well was surprising."
