WATCH: Roger Federer puts his hat and whites on for solo drill and tags nearly every famous sporting person
Roger Federer has once again taken to social media to offer a “helpful” tennis drill to his followers, and then challenged all his famous sporting friends to show off their skills.
With most of the world’s population either on a lockdown or self-isolating due to the coronavirus, everyone is trying to come up with unique ways to entertain themselves and/or keep fit.
Twenty-time Grand Slam winner Federer is no different as he shared a solo drill on his social media accounts.
He then challenged fellow tennis stars Serena Williams, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic as well as footballers Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and David Beckham, NBA stars Stephen Curry and LeBron James, and motorsport greats Lewis Hamilton and Valentino Rossi, and a host of other famous people.
Current ATP No 1 Djokovic accepted the challenge and shared his video on his Instagram Story so you better head there before it disappears.
Reigning Australian Open champion Sofia Kenin was another tennis star who got in on the act, and she even dressed up.
I’m accepting @rogerfederer challenge!
How did I do everyone? @VasekPospisil @matteksands @felixtennis @DjokerNole you’re next 🧐 pic.twitter.com/LfpycMWZW6— Sofia Kenin (@SofiaKenin) April 7, 2020
Fans also showed off their skills.
