WimbleSpin, Day 4: Federer's lob-tweener, need for wife and kids on tour

WimbleSpin harbors this regal fortnight's latest off-court news.

WELL FED Leave it to one Roger Federer to come up with the shot of the day, and a behind-the-legs tweener-lob at that.

He beat Sam Querrey 6-4, 6-2, 6-2.

FAMILY TIES Federer spoke with CNN's Christiane Amanpour, going so far as to say that he'd retire from tennis without wife Mirka and his four kids on tour with him.

By the way, if you've been living under a Pimm's Cup, Fed believes another major title is within reach: "Some guys just are playing really very well in some moments. ... Anything other than playing your best against the best when they're hot is not going to do it." And he taps Rafael Nadal as his toughest-ever and most-fun foe:

ICYMI  Serena's ball-striking is always ferocious. Thankfully, for the chair umpire's sake, she took a little off one backhand return in her second-rounder against Timea Babos. The errant hit made its way to the chair itself:
