Due to his knee surgery, Roger Federer was set to miss all the tournaments until the grass-court season.

While the recovery process may not have gone as planned, tennis fans will be happy that Roger is recovering well. Many might have assumed that because of the surgery Roger might consider retiring but that is something that is not going to happen in the near future.
This is because he is involved in the race to become the greatest tennis player of all time or the GOAT. For him to win this race, he needs to end up holding one record and that is the record for the most Grand Slam titles. Currently, he is the one holding the record but he might not hold it any longer.

This is because his rivals Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic have gotten extremely close to beating this record in recent years and could very well overtake him. Roger is definitely not going to let that happen.
Just like he did in 2017, he is going to try to make a strong comeback from surgery and pick up some Slams to extend his lead in the race. And he will be able to do that when the ATP Tour returns from its suspension in August.
