Roger Federer: My road not over yet

Roger Federer never seriously considered retiring from competitive tennis for more than a year, but admitted that he was disappointed before the second right knee operation. Federer, who arrived to take part in the Qatar Open, said that I was disappointed.

The Swiss maestro will make his return at this week’s Qatar Open. "He was very happy to be back playing a tournament again," Federer told reporters on Sunday.

"For now it's about 'I see how matches go, expected see how training goes'," he said.

"I know I need to go back to training after here again so from this standpoint it's just about building up to being stronger, better, fitter, faster."

“Retirement was never really on the cards. I just feel like my story is not over. Going still a work in progress.
