Federer Confirms Presence In Shanghai

World No. 1 Roger Federer posted confirmation on his Facebook page that he will play in Shanghai, putting to rest rumors that the World No. 1 might skip the tournament:

“Looking forward to going back to China and playing in the Shanghai Rolex Masters,” Federer wrote. “I have always enjoyed China and I can’t wait to see my great chinese fans again. See you soon!”

Last week, Swiss journalist Rene Stauffer reported that Federer was still undecided on playing the tournament.
