He said what was important to him was that the farewell would feel "more like a party," not a funeral. "At first I was sad, then I pushed it away. Then came the process of writing the letter and telling everyone. It tears you up a bit, but it was also extremely good for me," said Roger Federer. "Three or four weeks ago, I couldn't have imagined picking up a microphone at the Laver Cup and talking about it. And then there would be another party…. Because that was always important to me: It shouldn't feel like a funeral, more like a party," Federer added.
