Roger Federer has been seen on a practice court for the first time since his semifinal defeat to Milos Raonic at Wimbledon.

Roger Federer is back (in training). In a couple of posts across his social media channels, the Great One was keen to show he’s still got it on the practice court.

Roger posted this on Facebook:

And this on Twitter:

Federer has not been seen on a tennis court since his defeat to Milos Raonic at Wimbledon. During that semifinal he needed treatment for the knee injury he sustained following January’s Australian Open. He then announced that he was taking the rest of the year off to concentrate on recovering from that injury.

If social media is anything to go by, it seems like that recovery is on track and Federer will be ready for his first tournament of 2017 (the Hopman Cup in Perth).
