Federer has an Olympic doubles gold to his name

Roger Federer is arguably the greatest tennis player ever. He has a total of 20 Grand Slam titles - the most by any player in the history of the sport. He is still alive and kicking on the tennis circuit and despite being 37 years old, is ranked no. 3 in the world.

Just like his compatriot from Serbia, Swiss Maestro Roger Federer has also failed to get his hands on the Olympics Singles Gold medal. However, he has won the doubles event with his partner Stan Wawrinka at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing.

He did reach the final of the event at the London Olympics in 2012, only to lose to Andy Murray in the Gold medal match. He was forced to withdraw from the 2016 Olympics due to a back injury which had forced him out of action after Wimbledon that year.

With the Olympics coming up in 2020, the big question on everyone's mind is whether Federer would continue playing till then.
