Swiss tennis legend Roger Federer announced his retirement from the sport Thursday, saying next week’s Laver Cup will be his final ATP tournament.
“As many of you know, the past three years have presented me with challenges in the form of injuries and surgeries. I’ve worked hard to return to full competitive form. But I also know my body’s capacities and limits, and its message to me lately has been dear. I am 41 years old,” Federer said in a statement he posted on Instagram.
