He played a doubles match alongside his longtime friend and rival, Rafael Nadal, against Jack Sock and Frances Tiafoe. The match concluded with a close score of 4\u20136, 7\u20136 (2), 9\u201311.<\/p>\n The 41-year-old Swiss legend received a warm farewell at the O2 Arena, with fans and fellow players honoring him during an emotional on-court ceremony.<\/p>\n Over his illustrious career, Federer won 20 Grand Slam singles titles, including a record eight at Wimbledon. He held the World No. 1 ranking for an astonishing 310 weeks, 237 of which were consecutively. In addition, he claimed 103 ATP singles titles and earned Olympic gold in men’s doubles with Stan Wawrinka in 2008, along with a silver medal in singles in 2012.<\/p>\n Earlier this year, Federer, along with Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray, participated in a heartfelt ceremony at Roland Garros to pay tribute to Rafael Nadal\u2019s incredible legacy, which includes a record 14 French Open victories.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Roger Federer Set for Exciting Comeback at 2025 Shanghai Masters Roger Federer is making a much-anticipated return to the tennis scene at the 2025 Shanghai Masters.
