Is
Roger
Federer
Done? |
Dear Fans,
I'm extremely disappointed to announce that I will not be able
to represent Switzerland at the Olympic Games in Rio and that
I will also miss the remainder of the season. Considering all
options after consulting with my doctors and my team, I have
made the very difficult decision to call an end to my 2016 season
as I need more extensive rehabilitation following my knee surgery
earlier this year.
The doctors advised that if I
want to play on the ATP World Tour injury free for another few
years, as I intend to do, I must give both my knee and body the
proper time to fully recover. It is tough to miss the rest of
the year. However, the silver lining is that this experience
has made me realize how lucky I have been throughout my career
with very few injuries.
The love I have for tennis, the
competition, tournaments and of course you, the fans remains
intact. I am as motivated as ever and plan to put all my energy
towards coming back strong, healthy and in shape to play attacking
tennis in 2017.
Thanks for your continued support.
Roger |

@BenRothenberg - A tennis tip
from Marco Cecchinato: when match fixing, make sure your buddy
deletes his incriminating WhatsApps, too.

Tournament abbreviations
WC = wildcard
(given by the tournament to a player that could not get in on
their ranking, or did not enter in time.
PR = protected ranking. This is used when a player
has been out for a certain period of time due to injury (I think
it's at least 6 months) and their ranking slips down to where
they wouldn't get in on their current ranking.
Q = Qualifier.
A = Alternate. Used in qualifying when a player
withdraws before their first match. Also used in main draw if
there was no qualifying draw and the draw was full before the
player withdrew.
LL = Lucky loser. A player that loses in qualifying
(usually the final round unless none of the final round losers
sign the lucky loser list) and gets into main draw when a main
draw player withdraws before their first match.
SE = Special exempt. A player who signed into qualifying
of a tournament, but was still playing in the previous week's
tournament at the time the qualifying draw was done. This player
can get a special exempt into the main draw the following week. |
