Federer could not win his final match when he and Nadal lost to Sock and Tiafoe in the double battle in Laver Cup 2022. Right after the match, the organizers held a solemn farewell ceremony for “Express train”.
Despite announcing the retirement before Federer, it still shed tears when his 24 -year -old tennis player ended. Before going to the yard to say goodbye to professional tennis, “Fedex” tried to suppress tears. Sitting next to, Nadal also burst into tears in the saddest day of the Federer individual and the world tennis village.
Federer and Nadal confronted each other 40 times between 2004 to 2019. Throughout their career, both have devoted to the audience a lot of top matches and go into the history of the felt ball village. The Swiss tennis player won 16 victories and 24 defeats at the hands of his best friend and also a long -standing opponent.
Roger and Rafa always respect each other, and push each other further than their own limits. Before the Laver Cup, the Spanish tennis player was very happy to accompany Federer during the last chapter of the Swiss legend.
Federer and Nadal finally encountered in the semi -finals of the Wimbledon 2019. That match ended with the victory for “express train” after 4 sets. Unfortunately, Federer lost Djokovic in the final.
“Being in the same team with Andy, Thomas, Novak, Matteo, Cam, Stefanos, Rafa and Casper … All of you are wonderful. It is honored to play with people in Laver Cup. For me, this is more than the feeling of the ceremony rather than breaking up. I want to have this feeling at the end, and that is exactly what I hope.
