Federer had an arthroscopic knee surgery in Switzerland last month to repair a torn meniscus, after having suffered the injury away from the Tennis court a day after his Australian open run ended in the Semi-Finals.
He then withdrew from the ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament in Rotterdam, the Dubai Duty-Free Tennis Championships and the March 10-20 BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells in California.
The Swiss has hardly missed any tournaments due to health reasons in his 18-year-old professional career.In 2005, Federer was out of action for six weeks while he was recovering from a foot injury and during 2008, he was troubled by a bout of mononucleosis and back problems.
