 When asked about pulling off a Tom Brady-inspired U-turn, Federer said, “No, I know, I’m definitely done, I know that.”

A few days back, Serena Williams appeared on the Jimmy Fallon show, where she teased many fans about possibly making a comeback to tennis, just like Tom Brady did. Moreover, after losing in the third round of the US Open, Serena talked about liking the Australian Open at the press conference. So, it will be interesting to see if Serena makes a comeback in the future.

Notably, Tom Brady did the same after last season as he announced his retirement from the NFL. However, he allegedly changed his mind after seeing 37-year-old, Cristiano Ronaldo’s performance at the Old Trafford Stadium. In the latest NFL season, he will return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to possibly play a full season. On the other hand, Federer’s news might not please his fans, as many of them were hoping to see him making a comeback in the future.
