As the grass court season approaches, Roger Federer will be eager to improve upon his recent performances on hard courts. It appears he will participate in the Wimbledon Championships, set to commence on June 24, 2024.Reportedly, Swiss journalist, Laura Müller, disclosed that Roger Federer underwent a comprehensive medical evaluation following his withdrawal from the Miami Open due to knee discomfort. The examination revealed no significant issues or structural damage, offering reassurance to Federer’s supporters.
It remains uncertain if he will encounter further setbacks before the start of the clay court season, but for the time being, he enters the upcoming phase of the season with a degree of confidence. For numerous observers, this period was perceived as a potential retirement phase for Nadal, one that he had been preparing for.
With Roland Garros and the Olympic Games looming on the clay surface, alongside stops in Madrid and Barcelona, Nadal’s schedule will be quite packed in the upcoming months. However, doubts emerged regarding his participation, particularly considering his withdrawals from Doha, the Australian Open, and most recently, Indian Wells.
His recent participation has been limited to Brisbane and the Netflix Slam exhibition, raising concerns among fans and analysts alike. However, his inclusion on the Entry List for the upcoming Monte-Carlo Masters provides assurance that he will kick off the new clay court season with at least one tournament under his belt.
