It is the end of an era in modern day tennis history as Swiss ace Roger Federer has called time on his illustrious career. The serve and volley master, whose game has often been described as ‘poetry in motion’ by fans, will play his last ATP tournament at the Laver Cup later this year. The first men’s tennis player to win 20 grand slam titles, Federer ruled the roost in men’s tennis for nearly two decades, sharing the glory with his two eternal rivals Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. The trio share amongst them an incredible 63 grand slam titles.
While Federer might have been left behind by Nadal and Djokovic in the race for the most grand slam titles, purists consider him to be the greatest men’s player to have ever played the game.
