 "‘It's a tremendous honour’: Roger Federer inducted into International Tennis Hall of Fame")
Roger Federer will be inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame (ITHF) in an induction celebration set for August 2026 in Newport, Rhode Island, the ITHF said on Wednesday.
Federer won 20 Grand Slams, the first male player to reach the benchmark, and clinched 103 career titles before retiring in 2022. He held the world number one ranking for a record 237 weeks straight between 2004 and 2008.
“It’s a tremendous honour to be inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame and to stand alongside so many of the game’s great champions… to be recognized in this way by the sport and by my peers is deeply humbling,” Federer said in a statement shared by the ITHF.
The Swiss held the top spot in the ATP rankings for 310 weeks during his career, and had long rivalries with Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic, the two others in the “big three” of men’s tennis at the time.
“Throughout my career, I’ve always valued the history of tennis and the example set by those who came before me… I look forward to visiting Newport next August to celebrate this special moment with the tennis community,” the 44-year-old added.
