Marc Rosset, a former Swiss tennis player, spoke about the beginnings of Roger Federer and on this occasion shared an anecdote from the first training session together.
The former world’s best tennis player has been enjoying retirement for some time now.
We all remember his duels against Novak, but also Nadal, who decided a large number of finals. However, at the beginning of his career, not everything indicated that the Swiss would reach the mentioned heights.
“I remember the first time I trained with him. He was a new Swiss talent, but he was so lazy. Usually, when you’re young on Tour you’re a bit stressed, you want to play well, and you’re very nervous. The boy came onto the field as if he didn’t care about anything. “I was like, ‘Wow,'” Rosset said.
The laziness later grew into the elegance that adorned Federer during his long career, which made him one of the synonyms for the “white sport”.
