In the last few hours, a very important event for the history of tennis took place. During the fifth edition of the Laver Cup, that of 2022, during the usual exhibition featuring the best athletes in the world, the Swiss champion Roger Federer said goodbye to the world of tennis. The Swiss Maestro ended his amazing career with 20 Slams title, of which 8 Wimbledon titles.
Frantic hours, in some ways dramatic, with everyone who wanted to greet their favorite in their own way. Federer retired at 41 and made the history of the sport for the past twenty years and more, making millions of fans dream all over the world.
The tennis player closed with a doubles match, paired with his friend and long-time rival Rafael Nadal. In London there is almost all the best of international tennis, the best of European and international tennis.
The real big absentee of this competition is the Spanish tennis player Carlos Alcaraz, the current number one in the world. Alcaraz is currently resting after winning the US Open, but he wanted to make his closeness felt through social media.
