Federer out injured

BASEL. — Swiss tennis star Roger Federer had a “successful” surgery on his knee yesterday and will be ruled out of action for a month, his agent said.

Federer, a 17-time Grand Slam champion, underwent the surgery to repair a torn meniscus sustained the day after his semi-final match at the Australian Open, according to Tony Godsick. As a result of the surgery, Federer will now miss the ATP tournaments in Rotterdam and Dubai this month. “I am so disappointed to have to miss Rotterdam and Dubai as they are two of my favourite tournaments on the ATP World Tour,” Federer said. — AFP.
