Federer launches Challenge with style – and nominates the crème de la crème

The boredom has caught up with Roger Federer. He is launching a # TrainingFromHome challenge on his tennis wall in Lenzerheide. The people he marked in his post are more impressive than his skills with the racket.

The calls for physical exercise during the corona lockdown never end on social media. Challenges here, abdominal exercises there. Sporting goods manufacturers let their ambassadors dance to achieve some range. Clubs transfer training sessions into virtual space. In addition, the big hour of proven and self-proclaimed fitness coaches strikes.

The common denominator: everyone tries to make the best of the situation out of boredom without real training, let alone serious battles.

So does Roger Federer, who shows up again on his ball wall in his latest post and bounces the yellow felt ball back and forth at a short distance from the wall. The 20-time major winner seems to miss Wimbledon: all in white with a classic straw hat he does his best. “Choose your headgear wisely,” he writes with a wink. And he immediately nominates his friends’ crème de la crème to do the same. Whoever makes it onto this list has definitely achieved something, that much is clear.

Here organized according to «industry». Don’t worry if your name doesn’t appear. After all, we are in the majority.
