Roger Federer announced Monday he will compete at next year’s Tokyo Olympics in a bid to win the men’s singles gold medal, the only major prize he has yet to obtain.

“I’ve been debating with my team for a few weeks now, months actually, what I should do in the summer time (of 2020) after Wimbledon and before the US Open,” he said at a promotional event.

“At the end of the day my heart decided to play the Olympic Games again.”
