Roger Federer withdrew from the French Open on Sunday, citing concerns over his physical condition less than 24 hours after a grueling third-round victory over 59th-ranked Dominik Koepfer.

"After discussions with my team, I've decided I will need to pull out of Roland Garros today," the 39-year-old said in a statement. "After two knee surgeries and over a year of rehabilitation, it's important that I listen to my body and make sure I don't push myself too quickly on my road to recovery."
