Wimbledon legend Roger Federer stuns fans with his ‘second career’ as performs on stage with Coldplay
TENNIS legend Roger Federer stunned fans with his singing voice after a shock performance on stage with Coldplay.
The eight-time Wimbledon champion announced his retirement at the age of 41 last September.
The Swiss star won an outrageous 20 Grand Slam titles during his illustrious career.
Federer suffered a number of injuries in recent seasons but had originally said that he was targeting a comeback to the court – and even vowed to return to Wimbledon one last time before hanging up his racket.
However, Federer could no longer keep up with the pace as he struggled to return to full fitness and hung up his racket for good.
Now fans say he could be starting his “second career” after his exploits on the mic in Zurich last night with Coldplay.
Federer was invited on stage to perform Don’t Panic with the band, and his supporters absolutely loved his display.
“That’s why he’s the GOAT,” tweeted one.
Another declared: “A second career for Roger!”
“Dude is living the best retirement life EVER,” tweeted a fellow fan, as another simply hailed him as a true “Superstar”.

Federer was allegedly in advanced talks to be a commentator at Wimbledon for BBC.
But the icon quickly quashed those rumours.
Federer WILL be in attendance at SW19 as chiefs plan to honour his incredible career.
Wimbledon Championships tournament director, Ian Hewitt, recently confirmed: “He is a very great champion. We have a very close association.
“I am delighted to say that Roger will be making a visit here as a (honorary lifetime) member.
“He is very welcome any time, and yes, we will be celebrating his achievements in an appropriate Wimbledon way in due course.”
