Roger Federer has remained off the court for more than a year now. His fans all over the world are eagerly waiting to see him back on the court. Recently, Federer updated his fans about his latest practice session, which indicates him gearing up for his return after almost a year’s hiatus.

The Swiss Maestro will make a comeback at the Laver Cup in September, where he will play with Team Europe. He will make his official comeback to the ATP tour at the Swiss Indoors Basel.

Roger Federer gears up for his comeback 

The Swiss Maestro was on a hiatus after losing to Hubert Hurkacz in the quarterfinals of last year’s Wimbledon Championships. Following that, Federer has undergone several knee surgeries to deal with the injury that he sustained in London.

Yesterday, he took to his Instagram account to update his fans about his practice sessions before his comeback at the Laver Cup. Federer seemed playful and fit in the video while practicing on the hard court. He also dodged the camera when it came near him in a playful way.

One fan tweeted the video with the caption, “HE IS BACK! TENNIS IS BACK!”. Another one tweeted, “I can just keep watching it on an endless loop.”

What is the status of his contemporaries?

Roger Federer will make a comeback with 20 grand slam titles under his name. However, his contemporaries and arch-rivals Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal have gone ahead of the Swiss in the race for the most Grand Slam titles.

Fans were hoping to see him at this year’s US Open, but that will not be the case. On the other hand, Rafael Nadal will compete at the US Open to clinch his 23rd grand slam title. The tennis world will have to make due with watching just one of the ‘Big Three’ compete in the last Grand Slam of the season, as Djokovic’s participation is also doubtful due to his vaccination status.

Besides that, Djokovic still can’t enter the US due to the strict rule that are enforced on unvaccinated international arrivals. This bars the player from being a part of the US Open 2022.
