After a third knee surgery post the quarter-final defeat at Wimbledon, Federer chose to skip the Laver Cup but attended his event as a spectator at the last minute to cheer for team Europe. In a recent interview to Swiss-German newspaper Tages-Anzeiger, Federer talked about his comeback plans.
Federer talked about his comeback in an interview last month
“I would be incredibly surprised if I were to play again already at Wimbledon (2022). Australia is not an option at all. But that’s no surprise for me. Even before the operation, we knew that a break of many months would be necessary afterwards”.

Federer also mentioned his training schedule during the same interview.
“The doctors say that I will be able to jog lightly in January and gradually return to the court. Gently. They don’t know, but I’ve already been playing a bit of tennis with the kids. Then in March or April, I can start training again in a tennis-like way”.

Also, Federer won the ATP Fans’ Favorite Award for the 19th time in his career. Even though he played a mere 13 matches this year, Federer’s popularity among tennis fans proved vital once again.
If the training goes well, the 20-time major champion will grace the tennis courts by opting to play for a grass-court practice event in either Halle or Stuttgart ahead of Wimbledon Championships next year.
