Roger Federer sees his injury rehabilitation as the ‘beginning of something very special’ in his career. Speaking at the launch of the Laver Cup a few weeks back, Federer reflected on his rehab, and what it means for his career.
“My recovery is going well, I’m quite happy. It could always be a little bit better but right now I’m not in a hurry – it needs to be good in three to four months.
“I have plenty of time, I’ve had no setbacks yet and I hope it’s going to stay this way.”
Federer, who recently posted a picture of himself striding around the Swiss Alps, was keen to stress the opportunities the injury affords him.

“The goal is to be healthy when I come back to Hopman Cup in 2017 and then the Australian Open,” Federer continued.
“I’m excited about what is to come – this isn’t the end of something, but the beginning of something very special and hopefully another few special years on Tour.
