Uniqlo releases Roger Federer's Basel kit

Friday, 07 October 2022 at 16:00

Roger Federer was supposed to play his first singles tournament in Basel after his comeback at the Laver Cup but that won't be happening.

Federer opted to retire after the Laver Cup which featured his last ever match, a doubles one with his greatest rival and good friend Nadal. The event in Basel won't feature Federer in a playing capacity but he will certainly be there to follow the event that will be headlined by a new world number one - Carlos Alcaraz.

The Spaniard has taken over the rankings following his US Open triumph and the reason he picked up the racquet in the first place is Roger Federer. The Spaniard idolized him for many years but never got the chance to actually play him in a match.
