It is a well-known fact that Roger Federer is a legendary figure in the world of Tennis. Not just tennis, but he’s a renowned personality owing to the plenty of deeds that he does for the betterment of society. However, Federer suffered a minor crisis that left him puzzled during his teens.

Roger Federer was passionate about tennis from a very young age, but he was born in a society where they valued education more than sports. Nonetheless, Federer picked up the tennis racket at a very young age as his heart demanded him to. 

But all of us undergo a teenage phase where we question our potential right? Trying to seek the purpose of life and deciding one’s future would remain a constant battle. Federer was no exception as he experienced the same. 

The Swiss maestro recently shared his early life experiences through “BecomingX” on YouTube. Fans gained information about how the 20-time Grand Slam champion rose through the ranks during his early years.

Roger Federer and his teenage dilemma! 

Federer gracefully recollected an anecdote from his teenage years that really made him question the purpose of what he was doing at present. 

“I remember going to a dentist once and he asked me, ‘so what are you doing?’ And I’m like, “well, I’m a tennis player now.” He goes, “what else?” and I’m like, “just tennis player,” “that’s all I do.”
