Nieminem
Jarko commented “One of my long time dreams will come true in November when I get to play the last professional match in my career against Roger Federer, my friend and the all-time best tennis player in the world.
Furthermore, this will happen in my home country in front of the home crowd. ‘The Final Night’ will happen at Hartwall Arena, in Helsinki, on the 9th of November. I hope this event will be as exciting for you as it is for me!”

Roger tweeted “Couldn’t be happier to play #JarkkoNieminen in his last match in Finland, can’t wait”

Roger and Jarkko know each other since they were juniors. Head to head is 15-0 for Roger with Jarkko winning only 1 set against the Swiss, but the 9th of November nobody will pay attention to that.
