Occasionally, some of them get lucky and actually get some hands-on training from the ‘Maestro’.

This is exactly what happened to a budding tennis player in New York. The player, clearly a diehard Roger Federer fan, couldn’t hide his joy after the GOAT joined him on the court. He later took to Instagram to share the news with his followers.

Federer never fails to inspire

Right now, Federer’s focus is likely to be firmly on co-chairing the 2023 Met Gala as smoothly as possible. However, he won’t be too overwhelmed. After all, he has prior experience owing to his appearance at the 2017 Met Gala. In the grander scheme of things, however, Federer will want to keep encouraging, inspiring, and motivating youngsters worldwide. In the past, Federer has said that he would want to teach tennis to youngsters following his retirement. While that plan hasn’t materialized, he continues to serve as a role model and an inspiration in various ways.

Take the Roger Federer Foundation, for example. Since its establishment in 2003, it has relentlessly strived to increase the accessibility of education and sports for disadvantaged children around the world. He has also contributed to relief efforts in the wake of natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina, the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake, and the 2010 Haiti earthquake.
