On the tennis front, Federer has been away from competitive action for over a year. He last played at the Wimbledon Championships in the previous season. After his quarterfinal loss against Hubert Hurkacz, Federer suffered a knee injury that has kept him out of action since.

As a result of his lengthy injury layoff, Federer is set to move out of the ATP rankings after Wimbledon. The Swiss legend will make a comeback at the Laver Cup and the Swiss Indoors later this year, as announced by him.
