The number 49 of the world has been playing in Swiss Indoors for the first time since 2005, while this year marks the first edition of the tournament, since Federer completed his career during Lander Cup last month.
Murray has returned to Swiss Indoors Basel for the first time in 17 years while facing Roman Safillin in the first round Tuesday. Major's triple champion is trying to increase his ranking by the end of the year so he can be one of the 32 best in the January Australian Open and only two shifts to do so.
The ATP 500 tournament in Basel has not been organised since 2019 due to the pandemic, with Federer currently in effect from three years ago, despite his retirement to Last month's Laver Cup. The 35-year-old now shared a ridiculous message he sent to Federer after arriving in Switzerland: “I sent a message to Roger when I landed at Basel and said: I just arrived at the city of one of the biggest athletes in the world: Granit Jakaić”, said Murray for “Arigauer Zeitung”.
