Roger Federer is struggling with his back and he will probably skip this French Open. The Swiss Maestro has been hampered by his “historic injury” to skip Madrid and play Rome “in 1st gear”. Roger is now in Paris to assess his back, but apparently things are not getting the way he wants.
Roger has played a record 65 consecutive Grand Slam events.
The training
Roger had a light training in Paris, but it was clear that he couldn’t move as he wishes. Last week, Federer commented, “I see my chances as not great to have the most unbelievable run, but if maybe in three, four days I can practice 100 percent for next week, then I believe that something is possible again.”
I am sure he will not compete. If lucky, he will play just the first match to make his 66th consecutive appearance in a slam
