Federer was asked by former world No. Guga Kuerten whether when he went to sleep did he ever imagine playing without anybody watching? Federer said “Honestly I struggle to see, in a vision, an empty stadium. I hope it doesn’t happen,. Even though when we practise we are used to having no people. so for us it’s definitely possible to play with no fans though in a way i really hope that when the tour returns we have a normal tour back.”
