ATP - TOKYO AND SHANGHAI

Dear Fans

I am disappointed that I have to withdraw from Tokyo and Shanghai as they are two of my favorite cities in the world and the fans have been great to me over the years. After consultation with my team and doctors, I decided to take the difficult decision to withdraw from both tournaments so that I can give my body a chance to rest, rehabilitate and fully recover from a physically challenging year.

Kind regards
Roger

Wise decision on everyone's part - I know that it was not an easy decision but you have to rest and fully recover from your great and challenging year.

I look forward to seeing you soon,
You are the classest player that I have ever watched and now my grandson who is 13 watches you with me. He said - you are so talented and entertaining at the same time. He likes to see you and Nadal play and loves the friendship that has developed between the two of you during your tennis careers.

Take care of yourself and your family,
Love Carole
