Roger Federer’s old equipment, such as his racket during the 2007 Wimbledon final against Nadal, or his shoes during his victory at Roland-Garros in 2009, brought in the staggering sum of 3,960,590 euros during a auction, as reported by Het Laatste Nieuws.
All proceeds go to Federer’s charitable foundation, which supports educational projects for underprivileged children in Africa, as well as in his country, Switzerland.
