Why was Roger Federer at the Chase Center?

While Roger Federer came to the Golden State Warriors’ home venue to meet the players, the 42-year-old was in the Bay Area not only for that sole reason. As it is well-known that the Chase Center is not just the home for Golden State Warriors and it hosts different events, Federer has selected the venue to host the 2025 edition of the Laver Cup.
