Andy Murray has final Roger Federer wish after tennis legend announced retirement

However, the Scot isn't talking about going head-to-head with the 20-time Grand Slam champion, but more so doubling up with him with the pair set to represent Europe at the Laver Cup. Bjorn Borg's side will take on 'Team World' at the O2 Arena from September 23-25, in a bid to win the trophy for the fifth consecutive time.

This week, Federer announced the tournament would represent his last before he walks away from the sport.
