Roger Federer Is Practicing Again, But Will He Be Ready For Indian Wells?
Roger Federer took to social media yesterday to show he’s back on the tennis court and making progress after undergoing surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee earlier this month.
“Rarely felt so happy being back on a practice court,” Federer posted.

Federer, who had never had surgery during his pro career, is scheduled to return next month at Indian Wells which begins in two weeks (he has about 17 days before his first match).
If Federer is unable to be ready for Indian Wells, might he play Miami? Or just avoid risking any damage to the knee and take the extra time to prepare for the clay season. Though Federer hasn’t scheduled any clay events other than the French Open.
