Some careers are too large to end quietly, and Roger Federer's is among them. The Swiss tennis legend, retired from professional competition, returns to Flushing Meadows for an exhibition match at the US Open — a ceremonial farewell to the American audiences who witnessed his decades of grace on those hard courts. In a sporting culture that increasingly understands the human need for closure, this moment offers both athlete and fan the rare gift of a proper goodbye.
