"I have a feeling that Roger Federer will retire in Basel" says John McEnroe

| by Sebastian Dahlman

After the 2022 Wimbledon, Roger Federer will lose all his ATP points and essentially disappear from the ATP Rankings, but he will return in 2022 as he signed up to play at least two events.

One of the events will be the favourite exhibition event, the Laver Cup. In 2022, the tournament will be played in London and the Swiss Maestro confirmed that he will be taking part at the event this year. Then, Roger Federer will compete at the 2022 Swiss Indoors in Basel. The Basel event is one that the Swiss Maestro almost always enters, as he won it ten times between 2006 and 2019. On his comeback to tennis this year, he will strive to win his eleventh title, as many believe the sport is considerably different without him.

"He said he will play in Basel. I have a feeling, but I might be wrong, that he will say goodbye to his house. Unless he's feeling great, and then maybe he'll try Australia and then who the hell knows, he'll turn the clock back. We will see what will make him happy," said John McEnroe speaking to Napolista.

Previously, also Mischa Zverev spoke about Federer, when he said: "My mother and a friend met Federer's coach, Ivan Ljubicic, near Monaco," Mischa Zverev told Eurosport Germany's 'Matchball' Show."Ljubicic said that Roger is more eager to return than anyone else. I also think he must come back because without him tennis is almost a different sport."
