They are probably the two champions most loved by fans in the history of tennis and, every time they meet, it is always a joy for their thousands of fans to see the contents which are then shared on social media. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal have reunited for a campaign for the famous fashion brand Louis Vuitton. The Swiss and the Spaniard, under the white snow, answered questions by telling funny anecdotes.

They were asked how they want to be remembered.
“Ultimately what will make me feel proud and happy is when I leave this world, if the tournament directors, the people who work at the tournaments, the staff, the ATP, say good things about who I was on the tour, or who I am as a person more than as a tennis player. Because as tennis players, in the end, we have the titles, we have the results and that’s how I achieved more than I ever dreamed of. So for me, in the end, the legacy in terms of a human being, after having achieved all the things we have achieved is the most important thing,” said Nadal.
“I hope that if I’m remembered not just as a tennis player, but as the person behind what I gave to the game and what I represented to the game, and it wasn’t so much about all my Wimbledon wins or whatever it was, it would mean a lot to me. If I could be remembered more as a personality rather than just as a player, it would be great. And if I was a good role model for the kids, that would make me happy too… And it would be nice, as Rafa said, if people were. happy to see each other again. Like: oh no, that guy again!” added Roger.

Rafa was also asked if he remembered the first time they met each other.
Rafa said: “I do remember. Probably not him.” Roger answered: “I don’t. Was I nice to you?” Rafa added: “You were a little bit arrogant!”
