Roger Federer to participate in Hopman Cup next year
The seventeen-time Grand Slam champion will be returning to Western Australia for the first time in 15 years.
“I think it will be a perfect tournament for me to start the season,” Federer was quoted as saying by Hopman Cup website.
“I like to play in new places… It’s always really exciting, so I can’t wait," he said.
The Tennis star is all set to partner world No.16 Belinda Bencic as they will represent Switzerland at the ITF’s official mixed team competition at Perth Arena from Jan 1 to 7.
Federer had paired up with Martina Hingis in 2001 to clinch the tournament.
He had also participated in the tournament with Miroslava Vavrinec in 2002.
