The legendary Swiss tennis player Roger Federer, winner of 20 Grand Slam titles, announced his retirement from the tennis courts.
The Laver Cup is on the program from September 23 to 25 in London, and Roger pointed out that it will be the last tournament of his career, after which he will retire.
The famous tennis player’s retirement has been the main topic for some time now, and now he has finally spoken out and confirmed everything.
- “The Laver Cup in London will be my last ATP event in my career.” I will play tennis in the future as well, but not at the Grand Slams and the Tour,” Federer began and added:
- -” To all my family and friends, of all the gifts that tennis gave me, the biggest was without a doubt the fact that I met many dear people. Both friends and competitors and above all the fans who give life to this sport. I have something to tell you today. As you all know, the last three years have been very challenging, I have had several injuries and surgeries. I tried hard to get back into competitive shape. But I know my limits and my body sent me clear signs. I am 41 years old and have played over 1,500 matches in 24 years. It’s time to recognize when it’s time to say goodbye,” Federer concluded.
