Look at how we talk about Roger's life. We use two different 'modes' to tell his story:
1. The 'Finished' Mode (Past) We use these words for things that are over.
- is was (He was very good)
- win won (He won five titles)
- stop stopped (He stopped playing)
2. The 'Coming Soon' Mode (Future) When something hasn't happened yet, we use will + action.
- will play (Action in New York)
- will enter (Action in the Hall of Fame)
Quick Tip for A2: If you see a date in the past (2004), use the Finished Mode. If you see a date in the future (August 29), use will.
