Roger Federer is not only one of the greatest tennis players of all time, but he is also one of the greatest athletes across all sports. The man receives love from people who don’t even follow the sport. Therefore, his farewell carried a lot of expectations. It had to be the best from the speeches to other things such as lighting, and the Laver Cup took proper care of it.
Admittedly, many were not pleased with the singer of the event, Ellie Goulding, and even accused her of ruining the big day. However, the recent appreciation post arriving from the 20 times Grand Slam champion overturned the hate.
