Right before surprising his fans, Roger Federer engages in a profound conversation with young kids

Roger Federer and his parents have been sponsoring a huge number of kids to support their passions and careers via Swiss Sports Aid. In an attempt to motivate and inspire them, he made a visit, leaving them all surprised right before he made an appearance at the wrestling event. It was not a formal event but a casual chit-chat with the kids who were also treated to pizza.

During the event, he said said, “I am your biggest fan. I hear about your successes and also about injuries. I know there are hard days – but that also builds character. We have always made sure that the talent comes from less well-off backgrounds. This is still a big concern for us today.”
