beats studioCan Roger Federer find his old form in 2014？
Roger Federer took time out from his off-season training regimen to answer questions on Twitter from his legions of fans.Among the things they learned earlier this month was that Federer's favorite fruits were strawberry,beats studio, apple and mango and that he has visited 55 countries.
When asked what he planned to get wife Mirka for Christmas, the funnier side of the 17-time grand slam champion emerged: A "hashtag," he replied.
He added that he was "working overtime" to win the Australian Open in January -- which leads us to the first of five burning questions looking ahead to the 2014 tennis season.
Can Roger Federer win another grand slam?
The numbers, so often in favor of history maker Federer, were less kind to the Swiss in 2013.
He failed to reach a grand slam final for the first time since 2002, his grand slam quarterfinal streak ended at 36 and his year-end ranking of No. 6 was his lowest in 11 years.
Federer only won one tournament, on grass in Halle, Germany -- though he was bounced from Wimbledon a few weeks later in the second round after claiming the title at the All England Club a record seven times.
Longtime coach Paul Annacone was axed months later.

His back problems returned, with Federer saying it was a mistake to keep playing at the BNP Paribas Open in March when the back flared up.
It was indeed a slump -- well,beats by dre, for Federer.
But Federer says he is now fit, which helped the 32-year-old finish the season on a high.
"My self-confidence has also returned," he told the website of one of his sponsors, Credit Suisse, in late November. "By the end, everyone around me was talking positively again. The mood was much better than in the summer.
"That boosts my morale for the coming year,beats by dre pro, and it's a big relief. The fun has definitely returned."
Federer said he would like to win "about",beats norge; five tournaments in 2014 and play in "great finals."
The majors are what matter to Federer most, and if he was to claim the Australian Open he would become the second oldest man -- behind Andre Agassi -- to bag a singles grand slam in the last 40 years.
Federer probably needs to beat two of Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray to collect an 18th major but his recent record against the trio is underwhelming.
He has lost four straight to Nadal, three straight to Djokovic and fell to Murray in an absorbing Australian Open semifinal last January.
No matter what happens to Federer in 2014, though,beats by dre solo, he'll still be a major talking point.
