In the world of tennis, certain partnerships transcend the boundaries of the sport, evolving into profound connections that shape destinies and leave an indelible mark. One such partnership involves Ivan Ljubicic and Roger Federer.

Recently, Ljubicic reflected on the unexpected turn of events that brought them together, and their incredible journey to success. As Federer’s coach, Ljubicic played a pivotal role in helping the Swiss add more feathers to his cap. During their partnership, Federer won three grand slams.

In the candid interview, Ljubicic revealed his thoughts on Federer’s plans, shedding light on the multi-faceted personality of the legendary player. Let’s find out what all he revealed.

Federer is not coaching material!

Reflecting on Federer’s post-playing career prospects, Ljubicic said coaching on the tour may not be suitable for the legend. But he can be a great mentor as he has the required qualities. “I can’t imagine him becoming a coach on the tour. I see him more as a mentor. He was like that when he was still playing. For the Swiss players or others he likes. He helps my son who is 14. He loves to help. But I don’t think he wants to make a commitment as a coach. He will not focus on one thing, but will do very different things. But he’s fine. We don’t have to worry about Roger,” opined Ivan in the interview.

Indeed, beyond the tennis court, Federer’s generosity and eagerness to assist others are widely recognized. His mentorship qualities have shone through, guiding and inspiring fellow Swiss players and younger talents. Federer’s willingness to impart his knowledge and wisdom transcends the role of a traditional coach, creating a positive impact that stretches far beyond the realm of tennis.
