This is what Federer updated and revealed on his SNS on the 15th.
Among them, Federer said, "The past three years have been a challenge for me, fighting injuries and surgeries. I've worked hard, but I know the limits of my body." I am one of the luckiest people on the planet.I have been given a special gift to play tennis and have played it at a level I never imagined possible and far longer than I thought possible."
After that, he said, "I think it's time to end my career," and revealed that he will retire after the tour tournament in England this month.
The 41-year-old Federer had surgery on his right knee and returned in March last year, then withdrew from the French Open in the fourth round of the four major tournaments, and lost in the quarterfinals of the Wimbledon Championships.
