Injury causes Federer to withdraw from the Barclays Dubai Tennis Championships
- Former World No 1 will also miss Davis Cup tie -
Dubai, UAE, 18th February 2009: A recurring back injury has caused former world number one, Roger Federer, to withdraw from two forthcoming tournaments including next week抯 ATP event at the Barclays Dubai Tennis Championships.
The hugely popular Swiss maestro expressed his great disappointment to be missing out on what he described as one of his favourite events on the ATP World Tour, but felt it best to allow for the full rehabilitation of a back injury that has been plaguing him since last year.
Federer will also miss out on representing Switzerland in a Davis Cup tie against the United States which is due to be played from March 6-8 in Birmingham, Alabama. While describing the decision to withdraw from both these events as particularly difficult, Federer maintained it was necessary in order to ensure he is in good shape for the rest of the season ahead.
揜oger is a four times champion of the Barclays Dubai Tennis Championships and a great fan of Dubai and the tournament. We are sorry that injury has prevented him from playing this year but we wish him a speedy recovery,
ada gak speku yg Federer w/draw bukan sbb belakang sakit, tp sbb Shahar Pe'er tak dpt visa main kat UAE sbb minah tu Israeli so diorang tgh bengang dgn UAE la sbb campur sport+politik. Federer plak prez of player council..
tp kan, bahaya kalau minah tu lawan kat UAE... sapa nak jaga keselamatan dia lebih2...dgn takde embassy kat UAE nyer... kalau ada apa2 kan susah..

Eh Mulan, pandai berharian metro kat sini.. takde lah.. Federer tarik diri bukan sebab ape. Katanya dia frust sebab aku balik awal. Tapi dia cakap jgn khabo kat MrFed, nanti MrFed sedih, itu lah yang dia cakap dia sakit belakang kat MrFed tu.
Banyak betul tennis tournament awal tahun ni, tapi sayangnya tak banyak pula live kat tv. Paling sedih nanti, final ATP yang clash ngan EPL. mesti akan jadi siaran tertunda. Bolo punye Astro.. penat je bayar bulan2.
Oklah, hari ni, kita sambung pelajaran double bank hand. Kali ni, mari kita saksikan Andre Agassi buat

Andy Murray, looking at the bright side of the depleted field at the Dubai men's event: "...it is certainly nice that I don't have to play a first round against Federer."
The tournament will start without five of its seven originally scheduled players after Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Fernando Verdasco, Andy Roddick, and Nikolay Davydenko all pulled out of the event.
As a result, Murray also received one of the luxury suites originally reserved for Federer and Nadal at the Burj Al Arab. "You can press a button and basically someone comes to your door. I抳e never had anything like that before," said Murray.
