Fans get emotional after Roger Federer plays his last match in career – Tennis will never be the same again

India Today  

The legendary Roger Federer won’t be any anymore on a tennis court as far as the professional aspect of the game is concerned. On Friday, September 23, the 41-year-old bid goodbye to tennis after playing a doubles match with Spain’s Rafael Nadal in the Laver Cup 2022. Federer and Nadal lost the match to Team World’s Jack Sock and Frances Tiafoe at Centre Court in a match that lasted almost two hours. The tennis world will miss you.— Bradentheadams September 24, 2022 I am really sad for all #rogerfederer fans tonight, my heart goes out to all of you. I think the @LaverCup send off was a fitting way for him to say goodbye surrounded by love — Kristina September 24, 2022 Lying on the floor sobbing.— RForever September 24, 2022 Singles professional tennis is very much a lonely sport to play and so hearing Roger Federer saying that he didn't want to face the end of his career on his own out there was hugely understandable.
