World No.8 Roger Federer got off to a great start at the Wimbledon Championships 2021. Having defeated Cameron Norrie in the third round of the tournament to advance to the pre-quarters, Roger is in the second week of the Grand Slam and can surely win the tournament this year.
There is some more good news coming for Federer fans. According to some reports, the Swiss maestro has recovered from his knee injury completely and is likely to play at the Tokyo Olympics 2021 where he will be representing his country, Switzerland.

Even though it is just about confirmed that Federer will play in the singles category, there is still skepticism whether he’ll play in the mixed doubles category or not. Usually, he pairs up with Belinda Bencic to play in the mixed doubles category.
