“When Federer returns, UNIQLO is preparing to support the player with the latest clothing suitable for the return battle. Please wait for the latest information.”

Federer will make his return in an ATP 250 event in Doha, Qatar. Federer’s last tournament was the 2020 Australian Open. Since then, the pandemic and his two knee surgeries have pushed him out of the tennis court. Many wanted the Swiss master to return at Australian Open 2021, but a delayed recovery phase prompted Federer to delay his return.

“I wanted to make my comeback at a smaller tournament, so as not to be fully in the spotlight.” Federer had said in an earlier interview.

“My biggest wish is to finish my career on my terms. As I’ve said before, it doesn’t have to be a fairy-tale ending, it doesn’t have to be a Wimbledon victory, and then I’ll walk away.”
