Roger Federer has been out of the circuit for quite some time now. The last time his countless fans saw him courtside, for a tour-level match was at Wimbledon in 2021, which was the first Grand Slam he played after his right knee surgery after the Australian Open in 2020. But since then, he has again been grappling with injury issues and subsequent rehabilitation in order to return to the tour.
A while back he gave an update about how his recovery was going and said that everything was back on track, even though he and his team has had to go through some initial hiccups. Recently he also released a short video of himself hitting a few balls, and supporters and fans reacted to it, foreseeing his eventual return.
