What an ungenerous thing to say. Federer doesn't care about the money--you don't get to be that good at anything if money is what you're after--& there's nothing juvenile about tears. Ever read the Odyssey? Homeric heroes cry all the time; and yet now we think tearing up is a sign of childishness. The fact that there are other people with worse problems doesn't mean Federer should pretend like he's happy to lose.
