Roger Federer and Serena Williams have been among the most decorated players in tennis. Over the last two decades, they have enthralled tennis fans with their scintillating performances on the tennis court. The two have garnered fans worldwide, becoming icons of the sport.

Recently, Williams and Federer have been sidelined from tennis due to their respective injuries. They last played at Wimbledon Championships in 2021. Subsequently, the American legend suffered a hamstring injury while Federer’s troubles continued with his knee problems.
