Roger Federer was certainly the most beloved tennis player of the modern era. The former Swiss champion has been idolized in every corner of the world and has brought tennis to many people. His career officially ended at the 2022 Laver Cup, where he played his last match alongside his eternal rival Rafael Nadal at the O2 Arena in London.
The last two years of his career were particularly difficult because of a serious knee injury, which forced him to undergo several surgeries. The 20-time Grand Slam champion has tried his best to be competitive again, but he had to give up on his body. Federer held many records for a long time, before Rafael Nadal and especially Novak Djokovic took them away. The Spaniard and Serbian have won more Grand Slam titles than the Swiss, but King Roger’s popularity continues to be unsurpassed.
