the swiss Roger Federer, eight-time Wimbledon championhe flattered the Princess of Wales Kate Middleton on the tracks of Wimbledonas a symbol of support for the ball boys of the tournament, which begins on July 3.
Federer, who retired last year, traveled to the British capital a few days ago to inaugurate two tennis courts in south London and took the opportunity to be seen by all england clubwhere, on track 3, he played a rally with the Princess of Wales.
“Any advice on my serve would be good,” joked Kate, to which Federer replied: “It’s perfect in my opinion.”
This is Federer’s second visit to the All England Club since he left the Laver Cup in London last year. The former almost ended in drama, as he recounted with comedian Trevor Noah, because one of the complex’s security officers didn’t recognize him and let him through.
It remains to be seen whether Federer, who received a tribute this week at the ATP tournament in Halle, where he won ten titles throughout his career, will attend this year’s Wimbledon, his first since his retirement.
Last year, when his departure from the circuit was not yet final, the Swiss participated, along with other sports legends such as Martina Navratilova and Rod Laver, in the tribute for the centenary of the center’s 100th anniversary court.
