Serena Williams and Roger Federer are widely and arguably considered the GOATs (Greatest of All Time). They entertained the crowd in Perth on the occasion of the Hopman Cup last year and the Swiss legend gave his racket to Serena after their “clash” in doubles.
The American sensation could not refrain from accepting Roger’s wall challenge that was launched a few days ago and she recorded a nice video of her volleying with Roger memorabilia.
On her post on social media, Serena commented: “4 days later… Couldn’t have done this challenge without my racquet from @rogerfederer. #tennisathome.”
