Roger Federer is hosting next year’s Laver Cup tournament in honor of legendary Australian tennis player Rod Laver. He picked Chase Center for the venue. Federer seemed happy about the venue but he also spoke about his disappointment over not being able to see Stephen Curry in Saturday’s game.

Federer said- “I saw the Lakers toward the end of Kobe’s career and he missed the game, So I hope that Curry is playing tomorrow. But I know he might not. Bad timing for me. But I’ll still enjoy the game. I was a big basketball fan back in the early ’90s, watching Michael Jordan and Shaquille O’Neal.”
