Tennis legend Roger Federer is considered one of the greatest players to ever play this sport. His influence over the game has transformed tennis to an unimaginable degree. It’s been close to 20 years, but the Swiss ace still continues to dominate amongst the other established names in the game.
Over the years, Roger has maintained a great association with the various brands he endorses. In 2018, he ended his long-time partnership with ‘Nike’, to sign with the Japanese brand ‘Uniqlo’. The details of his deal with them are reportedly a staggering $300 million for 10 years.
Recently, the eight-time Wimbledon winner shot a commercial with ‘Uniqlo’ to display their clothing wear. In the clip, Roger is seen jogging his way up a steep slope and reflecting on the time spent during the lockdown with members of his family.

Providing a better insight, the Swiss superstar said, “You can’t have a career as long as I have unless you stay active. On the court, you see me do my tennis thing for 20 years. But off the court, I’m chasing my kids around every single day. But it’s an active life I’m leading, I think a healthy life. Those clothes got to be light and comfortable, simple. I love to put it on and it feels perfect right away.”
During the time he spent away from Tour, he finally got the chance to spend quality time with his parents, wife, and kids. After being constantly away from home fulfilling professional commitments, he made the most of his time spent away from tennis.
