But “a little patience” is needed before returning to fitness training and on the pitch.
Roger Federer gave an update on his health after the third knee operation on Monday as part of a sponsorship appointment in Zurich. He's actually doing very well, the 40-year-old from Basel told the German news agency SID. “The rehab is progressing step by step. The worst is already behind me. I am looking forward to everything that awaits me now.”
When you come back from an injury, the next day is always the better, said Federer with a smile. Mentally, rebuilding is not a problem. “I hope that I can get back into fitness training and on the pitch as soon as possible. But that still takes a little patience.”
