Watch: Federer's emotional moment with wife Mirka shows how badly he wanted to win Australian Open
The Swiss master was wrapped around by his closest person who has always been with him through thick and thin.
An emotional Roger Federer wiped away tears and urged Rafa Nadal to stay with him on the tour for years to come after felling his great rival to win his fifth Australian Open on Sunday.
Completing a brilliant comeback after six months out of the game, the nerve-shredding 6-4 3-6 6-1 3-6 6-3 win gave Federer a long-awaited 18th grand slam title that many thought beyond the 35-year-old Swiss.
However, the moment which made our eyes moist was when the 18-time Grand Slam winner met his wife, Mirka after the presentation ceremony. The Swiss master was wrapped around by his closest person who has always been with him through thick and thin.
