Roger Federer has served tennis exceedingly well both on and off the court over the last two decades. He views being an ambassador as a chance to inspire the ones who have idolized him. Although, he’s the most popular tennis ambassadors ever, the 39-year-old revealed that this tennis career was never guaranteed.

In an online interview with a brand BecomingX, the Swiss revealed that he never aimed for 20 Grand Slams as sporting success is tougher to come by for a person hailing from Switzerland. As this country is known to be more inclined towards education.

“I’m actually not quite sure exactly why I succeeded as much as I did,” Federer said.

“You don’t aim for 20 Grand Slams. You don’t aim for World no. 1 anyway, not in my world, not in my normal upbringing in Switzerland. I’m not sure if we dream this big, you know. It’s not something that happens quickly or easily,” the Swiss added.

Federer also revealed that he takes his role as the ‘leader of the game‘ very strongly and never for granted.

“Becoming World No. 1 and winning Wimbledon, sort of being the leader of the game in some ways or just a spokesperson for all male tennis players, I don’t take it for granted,” Federer said.

Federer’s extraordinary talent and an ambitious nature, alongside the right support system eventually helped him scale monumental heights in the sport.

Roger Federer cannot stand talent being WASTED!

During the interview, there was one thing that Roger Federer put great emphasis on – Talent Being Wasted.

“One thing I do believe in is not wasting your talent,” Federer asserted. “You can always control like your mind and your fitness I feel,” he further said.

The Swiss believes talent can be nurtured if the body and mind are in sync. It’s like a tripod.

The eight-time Wimbledon champion believes that passion and dedication, along with the right support system, are essential for any player who wants to fulfill their goals.
