Roger Federer - Roger Federer is relishing the moment next February that he will break Jimmy Connors' 25-year-old record to become the longest-reigning world number one. The Swiss, who beat James Blake to win the Masters Cup on Sunday, will pass Connors' record of 160 consecutive weeks at the top on 26 February. I think that is definitely one of the big records I've broken, maybe the biggest so far in my career,' he said. 'I'm waiting for that date to come and then I'll celebrate it, not right now.' The 25-year-old's lead in the rankings is such that he is guaranteed to remain number one, even if he does not play again before March. Federer thrashed American Blake 6-0 6-3 6-4 in Shanghai on Sunday to win his 12th title of the year.
