58-year-old Swedish coach Peter LundgrenCoaching tennis legend Roger Federer from 2000 to 2003, he said his left leg was amputated:
“I thought my foot would heal.
Unfortunately, I had to cut my foot a little higher due to the infection I had 10 days ago and the broken ankle that did not heal due to type 2 diabetes. I have poor circulation.
But now I feel well again and my rehabilitation will start soon, but now I have hard work ahead of me,” Lundgren wrote on Facebook.
In September 2006, Lundgren was appointed coach of the Great Britain Davis Cup team, with whom he worked until August 2008. He later coached tennis players such as Marcos Baghdatis, Grigor Dimitrov and Stan Wawrinka.
