Good news for Roger Federer’s fans. According to French Open tournament director, Guy Forget, Roger Federer’s retirement from the Roland Garros is due because of a lack of training and not (really) because of his back injury (that is supposed to be over).

Forget. Federer retired for lack of training

Guy Forget explained that “According to Tony Godsick [Roger’s agent], it is an issue of physical readiness. His agent told me that he is [in] condition to play, but is not capable of playing five sets against fully-trained players. He is lacking a week or 10 days of training.”

The grass season is on!

This means that Roger’s back may not be an issue anymore, and the grass season is very much on.

Roger is not done!
