Watch the Roger Federer Smash that Fans are talking about

Roger Federer, the iconic Swiss tennis player, has embarked on a global tour titled ’24 Hours with Roger’, in collaboration with his Japanese apparel sponsor, Uniqlo. This unique series has taken him to major cities around the world, including Tokyo, New York, London, and most recently, Shanghai.

During his visits, Federer aims to immerse himself in the culture of each respective country, showcasing his appreciation for diverse experiences. In one memorable edition of the series, Federer found himself in Shanghai, where he engaged in a friendly game of table tennis with a young girl named Pineapple.

Despite his formidable tennis prowess, Federer faced a tough challenge from the spirited Pineapple. In a particularly intense rally, Federer unleashed a powerful backhand shot that sailed over the young girl’s head, prompting him to quickly apologize for the near miss.

However, even in a friendly exhibition match, Federer’s competitive spirit shone through. Fans couldn’t help but admire his unwavering drive to win, as evidenced by his instinctive reactions on the table tennis court.

“Winner instinct, not letting a kid get a point,” remarked one fan, highlighting Federer’s relentless pursuit of excellence. Another fan humorously noted, “Almost took her head off,” emphasizing the intensity of Federer’s shot. Some even speculated about Federer’s potential return to competitive table tennis, quipping, “His backhand is quick and subtle in table tennis. Maybe it’s not a full retirement.”

Despite the playful banter, Federer’s ’24 Hours with Roger’ series continues to captivate audiences worldwide, showcasing not only his athletic prowess but also his genuine appreciation for different cultures and experiences.
