Federer set to likely play on for at least another two years: 'If I have the chance to play and everything's still working sure why not?'

Federer said that also it depends on his family and his wife also who is a prominent figure of course in his camp and that is one of the main deciding factors.

He said as well though that he thinks of his decisions a year ahead of time so will make a decision year on year.

“So 2020 is set but 2021, I just don’t know because it’s too far away but, of course, if I have the chance to play and everything’s still working sure why not? If the family is happy and healthy, that needs to be the case.

If my wife feels the same way, that is important because - happy wife, happy life. You know how that works so it starts there. And then the body and the results. It’s going to come down to that. Usually, I don’t think over a year and a half ahead of time.

I usually think a year ahead of time or a year and a little bit”.
