His majesty says goodbye: Roger Federer played his last match with Rafael Nadal for the Laver Cup

On September 23, 2022 will remain in the retina of the world of sport, his majesty, Roger Federer, played his last tennis match in the company of his friend and rival of the circuit, Rafael Nadal, representing the team Europe against the Rest of the World team for the Laver Cup.
In a close match, the Rest of the World team of Americans Jack Sock and Frances Tiafoe beat Europe 4-6, 7-6, 11-9.
The Swiss had already communicated this news through his social networks that this match would be the last at the professional level -even if it is a friendly tournament-, since injuries to his knee prevented him from playing an elite match again.
Although in the first set, the Federer/Nadal duo looked safe and won it 6-4, already in the second and third the Americans imposed their game and their physique, which in the Swiss was already diminished, although without losing his talent, which led him to be considered the greatest tennis player of all time.
At the end of the match Roger Federer did not hide his tears like several of those present, in what became the end of an era.
With this result the Rest of the World team matched the series to the European team.
