Roger Federer heads to the Tennis Hall of Fame and says he 'had the best time' during his career
- On Saturday, 45-year-old Swiss tennis legend Roger Federer will be enshrined in the International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, Rhode Island, honored alongside broadcaster and former player Mary Carillo.
- Federer finished his competitive career with 20 Grand Slam singles titles and 103 tour-level trophies, yet now reflects more on personal connections forged during his 25 years on the ATP Tour.
- Beyond on-court success, his demeanor earned him the ATP Tour's sportsmanship award 13 times, and fans voted him the tour's fan favorite every year from 2003 through 2021.
- Retirement shifted Federer's perspective from purely statistical success to the impact of his relationships. He noted being "a little surprised" by the attention given to his personality and conduct.
- Still connected to the sport, Federer occasionally hits with his children and attends selected tournaments, while recent exhibitions in New York, Cape Town, and Mexico City drew large crowds.
