“I saw an incredible level of tennis in this tournament, some great games, and that’s amazing for this competition,” Federer said. Federer showed a mix of optimism and caution while analyzing his recovery.
The Swiss revealed to be dissatisfied with his physical performance this year and therefore decided to work again. “We made a very difficult decision because I had knee surgery last year, but I was really unhappy with the way things went at Wimbledon, where I was far from my best physical level,” Federer said.
Then came the new surgery and ongoing recovery, to try to restart her career in 2022. “Now I have to walk step by step, first I have to walk correctly, then run, do side steps, and work on my agility. Then I’ll start training on the tennis court, but that will take a few months Only then will we see how things go next year.”
“I have to take my time, I don’t want to create shortcuts or anything like that. I want to make sure I can do everything I want and there’s no rush. In fact, I’m in a very good place, The worst of this injury is over.” Ended optimistic Federer.
