Denis Shapovalov is one of the most interesting prospects in tennis and like every player, he grew up following “an idol”: Roger Federer.
The Canadian has revealed to Sportsnet that the Swiss Maestro has recently gone out of his way to help him.
It’s cool to see how nice of a guy he is. SHAPOVALOV
“Actually, a couple weeks ago in Basel, Roger was about to leave and he got out of the car to come and talk to my team for five or ten minutes; he was on his way somewhere,” he commented. “At a certain point, I just stopped and was thinking “wait a minute. Why is Roger going out of his way to talk to my team? What is going on?
I grew up watching this guy, he’s my complete idol. So that’s so cool to see just how nice of a guy he is.”
