It is sad to see him retire but at the same time you feel so lucky to have been able to witness it - Kim Clijsters on Roger Federer

Roger Federer speaks to the media during a press conference at the Laver Cup 2022 Four-time Grand Slam champion Kim Clijsters has joined a long list of players and fans to have paid tribute to Roger Federer. In an interview with Eurosport, Clijsters said she was sad Federer was retiring but that she felt fortunate to have witnessed him in action during "big moments in tennis history." "Very funny, it's so great. And again, it is sad, right? It is sad to see him retire but at the same time you feel so lucky to have been able to witness it. I feel really lucky that I've been able to sit up close on courts where he's been playing finals against Rafa and big moments in tennis history," she said. The Belgian also spoke about Pete Sampras' Grand Slam record and how no one expected it to be overhauled. She went on to hail Roger Federer's achievements on and off the court. "I don't think anybody really expected it. I remember, all the broadcasts saying, 'Nobody's going to be able to beat what he's done and nobody is going to be able to even come close to what he's done because this is so legendary'," Clijsters said. "And then right away, there's already a guy waiting, and so I don't think anybody really expected it because it was such an incredible record to beat," she addd. "To see what he's done, and the way that he's carried himself through it all, and the way that he grew and became this incredible elegant tennis player on and off the court."
