Emotional Nieminem plays his last match in Stockholm

Time to make a move for Jarkko Nieminen.

Jarkko plays his last match in Stockholm to be unable to contain his tears after Nicolas Almagro won the match point. Nieminen sat at the courtside after the match in “full emotions” to comment “My emotions were on the surface, but when the audience applauded… I felt empty.”

Nieminen will bid a proper farewell with an exhibition in Helsinki against (let’s say “with”) his dear friend Roger Federer.

Jarkko has achieved a world no.13 career high (2006), he has won 2 titles in Auckland (2006) and Sydney (2012) and he has reached 11 finals.

Nieminen has won the quickest match in tennis history after defeating Tomic in just 28 minutes.

Good luck for the rest of journey to this incredible role model!
