What’s in the news
Roger Federer has said he is unlikely to ever play a Grand Slams doubles match after appearing to scrub it off his list of ambitions.
The Swiss legend had often teased that it was on his ‘to-do’ list as his career wound down, but now he is in that stage of his career he appears to be only interested in prolonging his singles career.
“I just don’t think I can,” Federer said when quizzed on his future in doubles.
“I could, I guess, but I don’t think my team would want that. I don’t think my body would want that.”
