I’m thankful for every minute I was able to spend on the court with my fans and my tennis family. My experience in Doha showed me that my journey as a top athlete is not over yet. The progress I am making every day reinforces my belief that I will be healthy and strong enough to return to the tennis court at the highest level,” Federer wrote in his annual report.
Federer is expected to miss the entire clay court season and he probably won’t be ready for Wimbledon. Federer has registered for the Laver Cup, which takes place in September.
