Federer’s children often travel with him for tournaments across the globe and have also been spotted in the stands cheering. It was in July 2017, during Wimbledon, when all four of his kids basically stole the show.

Interestingly, the 39-year-old recently opened up on how he had a hard time differentiating between the two boys. “I used to confuse my twins sometimes if I could not see their face right away but no, nowadays I am a pro, of course, I can tell them apart” Plenty has been said and written about how the Federer family can add to its tennis laurels by introducing all four children to tennis. However, Federer once stated that his boys have shown better application and inclination towards the sport.
