JAKARTA - Roger Federer has officially retired after participating in the 2022 Laver Cup event. World number two Casper Ruud was involved in Federer's farewell event.
Ruud felt something after the ceremony. He admitted that he was amazed by the action that Federer showed with his main rival, Rafael Nadal.
Despite being involved in competition for a long time, both of them still showed extraordinary chemistry when working together.
Nadal and Federer did play doubles in the 2022 Laver Cup. Unfortunately, they lost.
"Seeing the two together in Roger's last match was extraordinary," said Ruud, as reported by Antara from AFP.
"It's really nice to be near them. They joke with each other all the time."
"It is certain that they are older and in the old stages of their careers and are truly inspiring to see that they have the motivation to move forward and be excited to play and enjoy togetherness with each other," he continued.
Ruud then said he was lucky and honored to be a part of the team.
"I learned a lot and made me get a lot of happiness from that experience," he said.
