Several top men’s and women’s tennis players, including Rafael Nadal, Iga Swiatek, and Chris Evert among others, gave an emotional farewell to Swiss ace Roger Federer who retired from the sport after losing the doubles match at the Laver Cup in London’s O2 Arena on Friday. 

Nadal could be seen trying to keep his emotions in check as he sat alongside Federer after their loss in the doubles to the American pair.
