Tournament organisers say Roger Federer will return from injury at the Stuttgart Open next week.The 17-time Grand Slam winner was forced to withdraw from the French Open because of a lingering back injury.Stuttgart tournament director Edwin Weindorfer said on Thursday he was expecting the Swiss great to practice on Sunday ahead of the first big grass court tournament of 2016. Stuttgart made the move to grass last year when, somewhat ironically, clay court star Rafael Nadal beat Viktor Troicki in the final.Federer did not play in the inaugural event, which was held after Wimbledon in 2015, but signed a two-year contract to play in Stuttgart towards the end of last year.The 34-year-old is also expected to play the Gerry Weber Open in Halle the week after Stuttgart, a tournament he has won on eight occasions, as he prepares for a bid to win his eighth Wimbledon title.Watch the Gerry Weber Open live on Sky Sports from Monday, June 13.Also See:Djokovic into Paris semisWill Rafa return?French Open homeTennis on SkyCheap Celtics Jerseys .

It is such a great track and it has got such a great crowd. A big thank-you to all the people that have come out, but what this team has achieved, as race by race I continue to say, is just phenomenal.We are so fortunate to be driving for this team and to be representing them and to be driving a car as it was today, I got it right in the sweet spot and was able to do an exceptional time wwith it.ddddddddddddAlthough Hamiltons performance in the pole position shootout was faultless, he locked a tyre on his Q2 run resulting in a small flatspot on the tyres he will start Sundays race on. If the tyre is significantly damaged, Hamilton will be allowed to change it for a similar one, but he suspects it wont be a problem.I didnt really damage the tyres. I just had a small lock-up into Turn 1 and ultimately for the race tomorrow, you want everything to be perfect. I had the pace and so went back out and I was actually up, but I just lost it in the last corner. But the flat spot is minimal, you cant really feel it. I dont think it is going to be a problem. ' ' '
