Roger Federer won his first Grand Slam career at Wimbledon 2003, when “The Express” was about to turn 22. Jannik Sinner just won the Australian Open 2024 at the same age as FedEx, while Carlos Alcaraz had success earlier (winning the US Open at the age of 19). For this reason, Federer has great confidence in the talents of the two stars mentioned above.

Although the two players are often called the next generation, both are already great players of the current generation, and the Swiss “seniors” also affirmed that Sinner and Alcaraz are the future of world tennis.

In the latest interview with CQ, the 42-year-old tennis player gave many comments to Sinner and Alcaraz. FedEx said: “I don’t want to put pressure on them because to be honest, aiming for 20 Grand Slams is not something I ever thought of, neither is Rafa or Novak. But the audience’s desire could be even greater tennis players’ expectations. These two young stars will help tennis continue to develop and become superstars of world tennis.”

The Swiss legend believes that to become a great tennis player, you need to be more motivated than others and always find ways to defeat the best opponents. “Then they will find the answer to the question of how to beat the best on their favorite court,” FedEx said.

Federer also talked about Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic: “I’m excited that Djokovic is still strong and sad that Nadal can’t play much. I hope Nadal can do what he wants in the summer.”

The 42-year-old tennis player also denied returning, saying: “I have no intention of returning because I am fine with life after retirement. My knees, body and mind do not allow me to compete. Of course Of course I can still make shots but I feel like everything is enough.”
