“He Seems to be Very Fit Again”: French Open 2020 Junior Champion Reveals His Experience of Training With Roger Federer

The Italian Open 2021 will be over by today and after it, there are a couple of lead-up events before the French Open 2021. One of them is the ATP Geneva Open 2021 where Roger Federer will be making a comeback on the court. Federer last played at the Qatar Open 2021 where he, unfortunately, got eliminated in the second round only.

In a recent interview, 18-year-old Dominic Stricker revealed how it was to train with Roger Federer. The Swiss player got the chance of training with Federer before the Australian Open 2020 and even hit the net with him in Dubai this year.

“Roger told me to work more on my serve, which of course I did. Preparing with Roger is always something really great, I learn so much and I am very much aware of my luck,” said Stricker in the interview. (Translated by Google Translate)

The youngster clearly highlighted that he has learned so much from the Swiss Maestro. He also disclosed how Roger advised him to improve his service and he followed his advice blindly.

Stricker will be making his debut on the ATP tour at the Geneva Open 2021. As a junior, he won the French Open title last year.

“Seems to be very fit again”- Dominic Stricker on Roger Federer

Stricker highlighted that Roger Federer seems pretty fit and fine to him at the moment. Fans also believe that the 20-time Grand Slam champion has recovered and can win the Geneva Open title this year.

“There have often been balanced sentences but the serious fight should be something completely different. He seems to be very fit again,” added the Swiss player.

Dominic Stricker will kick off his Geneva Open 2021 campaign against Marin Cilic tomorrow. It’ll certainly not be easy for him to play his first professional match against Cilic as he is already a Grand Slam champion.

On the other hand, Federer is beginning as the top-seeded player at the tournament and will face either Jordon Thompson or Pablo Andujar in the second round. Will the Swiss Maestro be able to conquer Geneva ahead of the French Open 2021?
