Roger Federer begins his grass court season at the Gerry Weber Open against Jarkko Nieminen.

Federer will be hoping to erase the memories of a distinctly mediocre clay court season by his standards. His French Open title defence ended at the quarter-final stage and the Swiss was comprehensively overshadowed by the irrepressible Rafael Nadal.
Federer will be aware that an opportunity awaits to possibly equal the great Pete Sampras’ record of seven Wimbledon titles in a few weeks so he will be hoping to send out a warning to his rivals this week as he bids for a sixth Halle title.
He could have been handed an easier first round draw. Federer has never dropped a set against Jarkko Nieminen in ten matches but the Finn is still a dangerous opponent.
