Federer, who has skipped this year's U.S. Open due to a knee injury, made less than $1 million from playing tennis, with the bulk of his income coming from endorsements, Forbes' said https://www.forbes.com/sites/brettknight/2021/08/30/highest-paid-tennis-players-2021-federer-serena-and-nadal-win-even-when-they-cant-take-the-court/?sh=6a98c99245d2&utm_campaign=socialflowForbesMainTwitter&utm_medium=social&utm_source=ForbesMainTwitter.
