Many champions such as Serena Williams and even Lionel Messi have indeed highlighted Switzerland’s stupendous career. Other stars outside of the sports world also praised “Rodger”. This was especially true for Gérard Depardieu. In an interview with the Swiss newspaper illustratedThe famous 73-year-old French actor expressed his admiration for Roger Federer:I don’t have a specific memory, there are so many!
