Roger Federer will return to the U.S. Open this year for an exhibition match, seven years after his last appearance at the Grand Slam in 2019.
Federer, the only player to win five consecutive U.S. Open titles, will headline an event titled “Roger Federer: An Icon Returns to New York” on August 25. The 44-year-old won 20 Grand Slam titles before retiring in 2022.
He will be joined by 2003 U.S. Open champion Andy Roddick, as well as Andre Agassi and John McEnroe.
Federer is also set to be inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame in August in Newport, Rhode Island.
