Roger Federer: ‘I beat Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic – great year’
The 20-time Major winner Roger Federer turned 38 in August 2019 and was still the third-strongest link on the Tour behind Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic.

Federer bounced back with titles in Dubai and Miami and the Indian Wells final, feeling well on the court and embracing the clay swing for the first time in three years.
Roger Federer had a great run in 2019 and finished in the top-3 for the last time.
Roger reached the Roland Garros semi-final for the first time in years, facing his old rival Rafael Nadal and suffering a straight-sets loss.
