Roger Federer’s results in 2021 are more likely than any age milestone to determine when his glittering career comes to an end, said Australian Todd Woodbridge, who thinks the Swiss master may yet have another Wimbledon triumph in him. Federer has not missed a trip to Melbourne Park since a loss in qualifying in 1999. Yves Allegero, Federer’s fellow Swiss and former doubles partner, feels skipping the Australian Open was a logical decision. “All his career, Roger Federer only lined up if he was 100 per cent physically,” Allegro told the 20min website https://www.20min.ch. “For Roger to continue on, he’ll have to be able to manage his body when he does come back,” said Woodbridge, who won 22 Grand Slam doubles titles.
