Roger Federer has added six-time grand slam event winner Stefan Edberg to his Australian Open team, with the 47-year-old Swede set to work for 10 weeks with the Swiss starting at next month’s grand slam event.

 

“I’m happy to announce that beginning in Melbourne, Stefan Edberg will join Severin Luthi on my coaching team,” said Federer, who arrived in Queensland at the weekend from Dubai with his family to play the Brisbane International for the first time this week.

 

“Severin, who has been part of my team for the last seven years, will do most of the weeks and Stefan has agreed to work with us for at least 10 weeks starting at the Australian Open in Melbourne. Stefan was my childhood hero, and I am really looking forward to spending time and learning from him,” said Federer.

Edberg quietly spent a week with Federer this month in Dubai as the pair worked on court and surely discussed the new arrangement. The Swede said: “I’m really excited to be part of Roger’s team and I hope together we can bring out his best tennis.”

Both of Switzerland’s main players now have Swedes onside. Stanislas Wawrinka has been working for a season with former French Open finalist Magnus Norman, who tweeted: “Edberg and me doing many things alike.. Moved back to Sweden after tennis. Worked in finance. Owns tennis academy.. Now coaching Swiss player.

 

“A few things brings us apart. He has 6 Grand Slams, 41 titles, was world number 1 and won.over 20 million USD in prize money.”

 

The 32-year-old hopes Federer that six-time grand slam hero Edberg can add that little something to a game which went wrong in 2013, Federer’s worst season ín a decade as he failed to reach the final of a major for the first time since 2002 and claimed only a single ATP trophy.
