Ljubicic talked about Federer
Ivan Ljubicic gave an interview to Tennis Majors, thus returning to talk about the Swiss champion. The Croatian coach, alongside the 41-year-old from Basel from 2016 to 2022, revealed how he learned that the winner of 20 Grand Slam titles intended to retire permanently from tennis.He explained: “The only way to stop him was for his body to be unable to continue.
He loves tennis so much that there was no way he made the decision to stop playing because he didn’t want to anymore. It was never going to happen. It was the only way to stop him.His skill didn’t diminish and his physical condition, perhaps over time, slowed it down a bit, but his genius still kept him on top.
The start was tough because in the second tournament he injured his meniscus and underwent his first operation.But at the same time, looking back, maybe it was lucky for us to have time to work and get to know each other even better.
Sure, I’ve had awkward moments where people thought I was hired because I was their friend and stuff like that. But of course he was happy that the results were coming.”
