Roger Federer: Life of World's Greatest Tennis Player and Legend Roger Federer (Greatest Athletes of All Time Book 5)

Roger Federer is a living legend. Not only is the best tennis player the World has ever known, he is a remarkable human being. Discover his life's story and legacy in this short-read sport biography.

By the time he was four years old, Roger Federer was glued to the TV set, watching every tennis game his parents would allow. At the age of eight, he was given his first tennis racket, and when he was ten, he proclaimed that he wanted to be the best tennis player in the world. Everyone laughed at him—including his tennis coach. How very wrong they all were!

Throughout his 24 years (and counting) of play, Federer has demonstrated a commitment to the sport, to family, and to the kind of values to which we should all aspire. The list of his achievements is long and impressive, including being voted the second most trusted man in the world behind Nelson Mandela. His peers in the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) have awarded him the Stefan Edberg Sportsmanship Award 13 times, and the fans have voted him their favorite for 17 years running.

Here, you’ll read about how Federer has suffered losses in nearly the same breath as he has achieved remarkable wins. How he pushed through injuries, but finally had to succumb and allow his body to rest and heal.

You’ll discover that, through it all, since he laid eyes on his wife Mirka at the 2000 Olympics, he’s been a devoted husband and father. But if it weren’t for the encouragement of a fellow Olympian who urged Roger to grab the opportunity and kiss Mirka, they may never have gotten together.

You’ll also discover why his foundation, the Roger Federer Foundation, chooses to concentrate its efforts in South Africa as well as Switzerland, and why he believes education is critical. To date, his charitable work has helped a million children since its inception in 2003.

Federer has won many nicknames, such as Darth Federer, FedEx, and King Roger, but what means the most to him is his legacy, his family, and his ability to keep playing at an almost superhuman level. And when he can no longer do that? He will still be a truly remarkable human being.
