20-time Grand Slam winner Roger Federer has announced retirement from tennis, with the Swiss star set to bow out of the sport after the Laver Cup, which will be held in September.
Through a long social media post brimming with emotion, Federer explained his decision to bring down the curtains on a stellar career, while also adding that he will though, in some capacity, continue to be associated with tennis.
Federer, 41, won his first-ever Grand Slam title in 2003, and since then, he's gone on to clinch victories across Wimbledon (8), the Australian Open (6), French Open (1) and the US Open (5).
