Roger Federer announces his retirement from competitive tennis
Swiss tennis great Roger Federer has announced he's retiring from competition, saying that at age 41, his body is telling him the time has come. In recent years, Federer has contended with injuries and surgeries as well as a rising crop of new stars.
"I have played more than 1,500 matches over 24 years," Federer said in a video message released Thursday, after stating that his body's "message to me lately has been clear."
His final ATP event will come next week, at the Laver Cup in London.
