Roger Federer Turns Water Boy Ex-Rival Novak Djokovic, Twitter Showers Praises

The photos and videos of Roger Federer’s farewell are still afresh in our minds and we don’t think we will ever be able to forget how Roger’s arch-rivals Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic cried on his retirement. While these three have been at their competitive best on the court, off-the-court they have been good friends and with each passing day, their friendship has become stronger.

Roger Federer, the Swiss former professional tennis player, is one of the best of all times and when he bid goodbye to the game after an illustrious career of 24 years, there was not a single fan who did not cry. He played his final match at Laver Cup in London with Rafael Nadal as his partner and recently, he once again won our hearts when he turned into a water boy for his friend, Novak Djokovic.

The official Twitter handle of Laver Cup posted a video of the same with the caption, “@rogerfederer: Always looking out for teammates. #LaverCup | @DjokerNole”
