CONCORD, N.H. — Dartmouth College has announced Swiss tennis legend Roger Federer will deliver the commencement address at the Ivy League school in June.

Federer retired in 2022 at age 41 after a superlative career that spanned nearly a quarter-century and included 20 Grand Slam titles and a statesman's role.
