CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA – FEBRUARY 05: Roger Federer during a media conference on his arrival at Cape Town International Airport on February 05, 2020 in Cape Town, South Africa.

One of the best tennis players of all time, Roger Federer arrived in the Mother City to play his first fully-fledged tennis match in his mom, Lynette’s birthplace.

38-year-old Federer, who has won 20 Grand Slam titles, will play in a charity match against Spaniard Rafael Nadal tomorrow in the Cape Town Stadium.

The two will try to break the world record for most people at a tennis match. Federer, who has given back to various local charities, says his Foundation has a very special place in his heart.

Our very own Reinard Ludick got a few laughs out of the Swiss Maestro when quizzed about his Afrikaans skills!
