He further said, as many of you know, the last three years have been very challenging for me. Sometimes in the form of surgery and sometimes in the form of injury. I had worked hard to be able to come once again in your midst as a rival. But, despite this, I am also aware of the limitations of my body. I am 41 years old. I have played around 1,500 matches in the last 24 years. Tennis has treated me kindly. The Laver Cup being held in London next year is going to be my last game and I will try to play as many matches as possible in the coming days.
