“I don’t know if I’ll play,” the 39-year-old said after scoring 7:6(5), 6:7(3), 7:6(4), 7:5. He achieved success against the perfect German third seed. And that’s in front of the empty stands at the court of Philippe Chatrier.

“Now I have to decide whether to continue playing or not,” Federer, 39, said against Italy’s Matteo Berrettini on Monday. ? Is it a good time to take a break? The brilliant Berrettini was last in the final in Madrid, where he lost in three sets to Alexander Zverev. World number one Novak Djokovic is likely to wait in the quarter-finals.

The 20-times Grand Slam winner Federer is playing his first grand slam since the 2020 Australian Open in Paris. As a result, he underwent two knee injuries and had to deal with a tedious reconstruction. Federer had indicated that the claycourt season was more prepared for Wimbledon. During the whole season, Federer has played six matches so far: in Doha against Daniel Evans and Nikoloz Basilashvili, in Geneva against Pablo Andujar, and in Roland Garros against Denis Istomin, Marin Cilic and Dominic Kupfer.
