"I'm not in New York to try to get to the quarterfinals, but to try to win the tournament," said Federer before the year's last Grand Slam - US Open.

Federer, who slipped to seventh in the world rankings, began participating in Flushing Meadows tomorrow against the Slovenian Grega Zemlja.

"I'm not in New York to try to get to the quarterfinals, but to try to win the tournament. Everything starts from the beginning, so now I'm fully concentrated for the match on Monday. Here I have to defend only quarter from the last year, so I hope to gain ranking points, "said Federer, who will equal the record of Wayne Ferreira for most consecutive appearances in Grand Slam tournaments - 56 if he reach the quarterfinals in New York, Federer could face Rafael Nadal.
