“I mean I met Roger, so it was crazy! I saw it … it was really nice. He was like, ‘I feel like I know you.
Every time I imagined the worst case scenario, it was actually a lot worse in terms of my tennis, but it was a lot of fun, I’m very, very glad I did it, ”Guthrie said about playing with Federer.
Savannah Guthrie’s Obsession with Federer Also, on the Ellen DeGeneres show, Guthrie admitted to being obsessed with Federer. And thus, Ellen gifted him a cardboard replica of Roger Federer without a shirt that Guthrie later promised to put in his office.
“I’m not like a stalker! I’m dying to meet him I love it! I think I look a little creepy! “On the court, Federer recently withdrew from the 2021 French Open to safeguard his body for the upcoming grass court season. He is confident heading into the 2021 Wimbledon Championship.
