Swiss maestro Roger Federer has been out of action for over a year due to his knee surgery. Federer last competed at Wimbledon 2021 and after his exit, he decided to undergo a third surgery on his knee which ruled him out for a year. Federer has started light training and is expected to come back in a couple of years’ time at the Laver Cup.

Marking 100 years of centre court, Wimbledon decided to invite all their past champions to a ceremony in the middle Sunday as a mark of respect. Apart from Federer, Wimbledon champions like Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, Venus Williams, Bjorn Borg, Billie Jean King, and many other great champions were present at the centre court.

While the show was definitely stolen by Federer, fans were gushing over the idea of a Federer-Nadal reunion. While the duo couldn’t be pictured together at centre court, they were seen hanging out in the players’ area.
