Roger Federer has been everywhere in the headlines lately thanks to a fascinating combination of business moves, reflections by fellow legends, and a dash of social media nostalgia. On November 6, Federer appeared at the American Business Forum in Miami, sharing the spotlight among global political and sports heavyweights. The highlight from that event came courtesy of Rafael Nadal, who called Federer a slightly more magical player than Novak Djokovic in terms of pure talent and inspiration, capturing the imagination of fans who still debate the hierarchy of tennis greatness. Nadal’s heartfelt remarks created quite a buzz, with sports outlets and social media users amplifying the sentiment and reminiscing about Federer’s poetic style on the court.
Federer’s footprint extends well beyond tennis these days. His investment and brand partnership with Swiss running shoe company On continues to be a major point of interest; industry analysis and sneaker blogs estimate his stake in the booming brand now outpaces his entire career earnings on the tennis court. Executives at On have described the collaboration as a meaningful investment at a critical moment for both the brand and Federer’s evolving legacy as a business leader and product designer. Forbes and The Business Vision Magazine both cite Federer’s business ventures and endorsements as key to maintaining his place among the world’s highest-paid retired athletes, with Forbes recently listing his annual income from endorsements at over $100 million.
Wimbledon also resurfaced on Federer’s social media, as the Swiss maestro posted a video on Instagram showing him hitting at the famed training courts—his first time back on the grass since his emotional retirement. Fans and media savored every frame, flooding the comments with praise and hopes for a full exhibition comeback. Tennis Majors confirmed that Federer is set to make a long-awaited on-court return in the autumn of 2025, headlining a special exhibition doubles event called 'Roger & Friends' at the Rolex Shanghai Masters, which has already ignited a wave of speculation about what other surprises Federer might have in store.
Federer’s charitable work made headlines as well, with the Roger Federer Foundation’s recent collaboration with the OneSight EssilorLuxottica Foundation to deliver eye care in Zambia—a story celebrated in Zurich and Lusaka press releases and widely shared by Federer’s supporters. Meanwhile, ATP statisticians marveled at Federer’s longevity in the sport, as Novak Djokovic creeps closer to surpassing his record of 859 weeks inside the top five, a milestone that keeps the Federer legacy at the forefront of tennis conversations.
Lastly, Federer shared personal anecdotes about his children’s tennis lessons, revealing in Inside Tennis that he relies on teaching pros for his kids’ development—a relatable moment that underscores Federer’s graceful transition into a new chapter of family life and mentorship. Whether it’s Nadal’s sentimental tributes, Federer’s new business wins, or his engagement with fans and charities around the world, the Swiss icon shows no sign of stepping out of the limelight.
