Tennis fans are quite happy after Roger Federer announced that he’ll play at the French Open 2021. They were eagerly waiting to watch him play at a Grand Slam, and they’ll be able to witness the same soon. However, even before that, he’ll also be exhibiting his skills at the ATP 250 Geneva 2021.
Even though Roger Federer is returning to the court again, everything is not well for him. He and his wife Mirka Federer received an enormous shock recently, as there are some obstacles in the construction of their new home.
The couple is planning to build a house in Rapperswil-Jona, a municipality in the Wahlkreis of See-Gaster in Switzerland. It will be on the shores of Lake Zurich and will cost around $92 million in its complete construction. However, things are not going as per their plan at the moment.

Roger and Mirka received a number of setbacks that might delay the construction or can even permanently stop it. They were hoping that the house would be completed by the end of 2021. However, that doesn’t look a certainty any longer.
