Roger Federer was last on the pitch as a player at Wimbledon in 2021. A year ago he was cheered by other greats in tennis history at the celebration of the 100th anniversary of the most famous court in the world. Now the stage once again belonged to the Maestro from Switzerland for a few minutes.
After a video with some of his best moments at Wimbledon, the 41-year-old Swiss took a seat to a standing ovation from the 15,000 fans in the Royal Box, which is reserved for nobles and particularly deserving people – between the Duchess Kate and his wife Mirka. He then watched the first round game of the defending champion Jelena Rybakina against Shelby Rogers.
On July 6, 2003 – almost exactly 20 years ago – Federer won his first of 20 Grand Slam titles in Wimbledon. In the All England Club he is the record winner in men’s singles with eight wins.
