Roger Federer has warmed his fans’ hearts once again by hitting the ball and coaching kids in New York. The Swiss Maestro is in New York to host the MET GALA. His co-hosts are going to be singer Dua Lipa, Michaela Coel, Penelope Cruz, and Anna Wintour. Federer is doing a lot of touristy things in New York ahead of the event, like eating a proper New York burger. But what has become big news is him playing tennis with kids at the Michael Kates Terrace. One of the kids who knocked tennis balls with him posted snippets of the play session.

In the post, Roger Federer was seen observing the kids’ game and giving them some useful tips. He was also generous and took some photos and selfies with the kids on the court. Federer is also seen shaking and fist-bumping the kids in a fun way. Roger Federer has always been in the news for being around kids in tennis. In 2022, he played with a young player who he had once promised to play with.

The kid had requested Roger in 2017 to keep on playing for another seven or eight so that when he grows up to play professionally he can compete with Federer. So in 2022, Roger invited him to play an exhibition match with him.
