Roger Federer on His Way to the Tennis Hall of Fame

Three years after his emotional farewell at the Laver Cup, Roger Federer could receive the ultimate honor: entry into the pantheon of world tennis. The official announcement has been made, rekindling all the emotion of a legendary career.

It's official: Roger Federer, a giant among giants, will be eligible in 2026 to enter the International Tennis Hall of Fame. The organization made the announcement on Wednesday, confirming what all tennis fans had been waiting for since his last forehand at Wimbledon.

With 103 ATP titles, 1,251 singles victories, 20 Grand Slam tournaments, and an indelible mark left on multiple generations, Federer embodies the very definition of greatness in his sport.

Federer will be the headliner, but the 2026 class promises to be a strong one:

- Svetlana Kuznetsova (2 Grand Slam titles)

- Juan Martin del Potro, 2009 US Open champion

- Mary Carillo, former American tennis player turned journalist and renowned sports commentator

- Marshall Happer, an administrative figure in modern tennis. During the era of the Men’s Tennis Council (MTC), he notably helped establish tour rules, television contracts, calendar organization, and the anti-doping control system

The ITHF will announce the inductees in November 2026.
