Roger Federer with one of his ten trophies in Basel

Roger Federer celebrated less than a tenth of his 103 tournament triumphs in Basel. In autumn, the Swiss could go one better, then the eleventh in his hometown. As it became known on Tuesday, Federer plans to start at the traditional 500 in the St. Jakobshalle.

A few weeks before that, the appearance at the Laver Cup in London's O2 Arena is planned, but it's not about world ranking points. Before that, it will probably be tight with performances on the tennis stage. Even if the 20-time major winner occasionally reports on his training progress on social networks.

Federer played his last match at Wimbledon last year, where he lost to Hubert Hurkacz in the quarterfinals. Since then, the 40-year-old has been on sick leave and had to pay tribute to his knee problems.
