Roger Federer says wife Mirka gave up her career in tennis to avoid them breaking up

ROGER FEDERER has said his wife Mirka Federer gave up her own tennis career so they could stay together. Roger Federer, 39, has been married to his beloved wife Mirka Federer, 43, since they tied the knot in Switzerland back in 2009.

 

However, their relationship almost ran into trouble early on, according to the tennis star. Roger and Mirka first met at the Sydney Olympics back in 2000 where they were both competing.

She was a rising tennis star herself at the age of 21 and the pair played doubles together.

They started dating soon after and later married in 2009 and had four children together. However, Roger has been open about how Mirka prioritised his career over hers.

Speaking last year, he explained how although injury forced her to step back in 2002, she also made the choice not to return.

The Gram Slam Champion gave a 8-word response to marriage challenges with wife Mirka. Federer said: “She has been wonderful in terms of support.

“It was amazing how easily she walked away from tennis and retired, never really tried to come back.

“With me winning Wimbledon eventually and becoming the player I became, she was, like, ‘You know what, I’d rather have helped you have an amazing career [than] me having some kind of a career.

“‘And we won’t see each other and we’ll grow unhappy, and maybe we’ll break up because we won’t see each other enough.’

“We just love our time together and that’s still the case,” he added to The Times.

Over their marriage, the former world number one player has been clear about his love for Mirka.
