Goodbye, Roger Federer

Beijing time September 24

Roger Federer Roger Federer

At O2 Stadium in London

In the Lavol Cup Tennis Tournament held

Ending his career with a double beat

This time

Standing beside Federer

Still the familiar Spanish

His old opponent and old friend -Nadal

It's not just Nadal

Jiaokovic and Murray also appeared one after another

Four giants in active duty in the world

The last time gathered in the field

Qi Pipas, Rudti, Berettini and other famous players

I also witnessed Federer's last dance

But this game

But it is not as good as imagined "perfect"

Federer and Nadal are in the case of winning a plate first

Chased into 1: 1 draw

Later, he defeated in the "Raid Ten" war

Finally 1: 2 lost to Sok and Tiafolf

But this seems to confirm

Federer's speech at the pre -match press conference

"It's okay to win or lose

From which angle of perspective

I love tennis games so much "

In this way, cheers in the audience

Federer waved his favorite stadium

This veteran of the long time

It was difficult to suppress tears after the game, and he said emotionally:

"This is a perfect journey

I am willing to come from the beginning again "

In 2001, 19 -year -old Federer

Defeat Saprace's birthday

In 2003, Federer, under 22 years old

Take down the first Grand Slam champion

This is here in the era of Federer

He held up the Grand Slam trophy 20 times

On July 5, 2009, Federer won the Wimbledon Championship for the sixth time

It has also been obtained for 19 consecutive years

ATP "Most Popular Player of the Year" award

And inspire countless young athletes

ATP Chairman Andreia Gadenz once said:

Federer's 24 -year career

For tennis sport

Attracted millions of fans

Leading an incredible era

This "incredible era" belongs to Federer

Also belongs to his respectable opponents

Federer tears at the same time

On the sidelines

Nadal and Jiaokovic have red eyes

In the memory of many fans

"Funa Decision" once represented

Men's most ornamental competition

The elegance and exquisiteness of the Swiss

Spanish enthusiasm and wildness

The tit -for -tit -ups are relative but complement each other

Under the field, the two are close friends

Learn from each other and support each other

Nadal said after the game:

"Even without the news of Federer's retirement

I also know that our time has come to an end

This is a normal natural cycle in life

Someone leaves someone, and it is not novelty at all

History has always been repeated

It's just this time it is our turn

And now Federer farewell

We have to go to tennis history

One of the most important and greatest players

Say goodbye"

Goodbye, Roger

Goodbye, this "incredible era"
