One of those feelings is the feeling of a winner. Federer has rarely failed in his career and even if he loses, he accepts it politely and honors his opponent.

Federer recently said that between choosing tennis or soccer, he did not choose soccer, even though he had the ability when he was a teenager. As an enthusiastic fan of FC Basel, Federer plays children’s soccer and was even invited to try out for the team but he decided to decline.
