In recent days, news of Roger Federer's retirement has been held. His announcement sparked a myriad of reactions around the world, although it wasn't a bolt from the blue. The Swiss champion has not played an official match since Wimbledon 2021 and the last two and a half years have been a real ordeal for him. A serious right knee injury prevented him from ending his career in style and the specter of his retirement has become increasingly cumbersome. Undergoing the third operation last year, the King wanted to give himself one last chance to return to high levels, but the physicist sent him very clear signals. The 41-year-old from Basel will say goodbye to professional tennis at the end of the Laver Cup, which will take place at London's O2 Arena from 23-25 September. The 20-time Grand Slam champion will be one of the protagonists of Team Europe along with Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray. Through a video posted on Instagram, Patrick Mouratoglou wanted to pay homage to Federer.
Mouratoglou talks about Federer"I think Roger Federer is the best ambassador for tennis," Mouratoglou says. "He plays tennis the way everybody would love to play tennis, and nobody can play tennis like him, and nobody probably will ever play tennis the way did. When you watch Roger play, the first thing you see, is an incredible talent and fluidity, but we have brought the years since several other guys playing with incredible fluidity and talent. Those guys have never won a Grand Slam. He won 20. Why? Because he's an incredible fighter, he always thought for every single point in every single match and he's a real fighter," he added. The Frenchman also lauded the 41-year-old's fighting spirit in the two Wimbledon finals that he lost to Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, dubbing the former "historic". "The first thing I remember is the trophy ceremony at the Australian Open 2006 when he completely broke down, he cried. He was a superhero and he became a human. He's the first one who really did that?" he recalled. "The second one is the two epic matches, in Wimbledon, that he lost to one against Novak, with match point, and the one against Rafael Nadal that ended up in the night, these two matches were history," he added. Over the years, the Swiss maestro, Roger Federer, has given us many moments to cherish. His breathtaking shot-making has enthralled tennis fans all across the world.
