Swiss tennis great Roger Federer, who will begin the week by getting back at the helm of Tennis rankings by regaining the World No.1 spot, celebrated his victory and comeback after almost a three month break in style as he beat Milos Raonic in the final of the Stuttgart Cup. The maestro lifted his 98th career title with the victory and begins the Grass court season with confidence. The 36-year-old Swiss will resume his place at the top of the ATP rankings for the sixth time in his career on Monday, beginning a record 310th week at the summit of the men's game. He also celebrated the moment by sharing an adorable video of him on Instagram and captioned the boomerang as "That No.1 Feeling"

That No.1 feeling

His upward move will leave Rafael Nadal on second as the countdown to Wimbledon intensifies with a fortnight left prior to the start of the grass-court major.

The Swiss great won the 78 minute encounter with the Canadian, Milos Raonic in two sets 6-4, 7-6(3) as it was best of three. This is the first Stuttgart victory for Federer as he keeps adding one feather after another in his already (over) studded cap.

This is Federer's 18 title on the grass-court and the season's third. He skipped the entire clay season and had won the Australian Open and the Rotterdam Open earlier in the year. The Swiss champion and the World No.1 will look to defend the Wimbledon title but will have to maintain the winning streak by defending his title at Halle first so as to retain the World No.1 ranking. Till the moment, it's World Number No. 1 for Roger Federer, again.
