star-studded affair with nine Grand Slam winners confirmed to attend the big event.<\/p>\n<p>The two tennis legends\u2019 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/how-to-watch-roger-federers-hall-of-fame-induction-ahead-of-us-open-return\">careers will be celebrated on Saturday, August 29<\/a> in Newport, Rhode Island, and the ITHF has confirmed that about 30 Hall of Famers are expected to attend the Induction Celebration Weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Federer, of course, became the first man to win 20 Grand Slam singles titles, although that record was first overtaken by Rafael Nadal, who finished his career with 22 majors, before Novak Djokovic usurped both as he currently sits on 24 Slam trophies.<\/p>\n<p>Carillo won the 1977 French Open mixed doubles title, but she has had a big impact on the sport as she became one of tennis\u2019 most respected and recognisable voices as a broadcaster.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen if any other members of the Big Three \u2013 Nadal and Djokovic \u2013 will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-features\/serena-williams-maria-sharapova-rivalry-friends\">imitate Maria Sharapova and Serena Williams<\/a> and surprise guests in Newport.<\/p>\n<p>Former world No 1 Sharapova was inducted into the Hall of Fame 12 months ago and she asked her long-time rival Williams to introduce her, but they kept it a secret for several months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had some of the toughest moments and some of the biggest victories on the court with Serena,\u201d Sharapova told Gayle King. \u201cAt the end of the day, we have so much deep respect for each other, and there was no one that I wanted to see other than her up on stage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Organisers previously announced that the action will kick off on Thursday with Federer featuring in a doubles match along with Andy Roddick, Andre Agassi and John McEnroe, but more names have now been added.<\/p>\n<h2>Roger Federer News<\/h2>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-features\/legendary-coach-almost-impossible-alex-eala-roger-federer-comparison-dismissed\">Legendary

Grand Slam winner Garbine Muguruza will also feature with Olympic alpine ski champion Lindsay Vonn in the umpire\u2019s chair.<\/p>\n<p>As for those who can\u2019t attend the event, they will be able
