I’ve done this thousands of times, but this one feels different.
Thank you to everybody that’s coming tonight


We are with you, all the way!

Enjoying watching Roger with his teammates on court. I wish the camera would stay on his beautiful smiling face, who cares about the match. Well now tie break and then our Roger on court, but it is his farewell match. I am feeling a bit sad and have a box of tissues near me. But Roger chose the best tourney for that, he is surrounded and supported by all top players new and old. GO ROGERRRRR 

Zverev is in the stand. How nice of Sahsa to be here to support Roger.

Roger's Parents with Swiss TV

Robert mentioning Davis Cup win and Lynette Wimbledon Junior Title, Wimbledon 2003 all matches with Rafa as very special for them! Say they are a bit proud of how they handled everything.. #federer

Roger really wanted to play his last match with Nadal!  Glad it all worked out.

Federer says he told Nadal about retirement 10 days before the public announcement: "I wanted to let him know that I was maybe going to play doubles, so I was like 'If you can be there, it would be very special.'" 🥰🫶

THIS IS IT...  IT'S THE LAST DANCE!  

Rafa seems more anxious than Roger. It must be difficult for him, he is "obliged" to make a good match with Roger, honoring Roger.

One for the archive!

Ready for his final pro tennis match - enjoy, @rogerfederer !#RForever #LaverCup #LastDance pic.twitter.com/TICdAUHG7H
