Federer’s Challenge to Cristiano, Kohli And Other Stars

Many athletes are placing a brave face on the coronavirus lockdown, turning garages and bedrooms into home gyms, and sharing happy photos of themselves on social media to keep their children fit by "bench-pressing."

Tennis great Roger Federer cheered fans with a picture of himself performing trick-shots against the outside wall as he snowed at his home in Switzerland. This time he tagged footballers like Cristiano Ronaldo, Toni Kroos and tennis players and rivals like Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic and decided to learn how to practice from home. Among cricketers, Virat Kohli was chosen by the Swiss maestro.

In the midst of the coronavirus lockdown, as athletes get used to remaining indoors and practicing at home, Federer posted a video of himself dribbling a tennis ball with his racquet on the ground. "Here's a helpful solo drill. Let's see what you got! Reply back with a video and I'll provide you some tips. Choose your hat wisely," he wrote in the video caption.

Throughout the video, he's seen many times dribbling a ball on the ground, wearing white clothes, including a hat. Later, he tagged a bunch of superstars, including Kohli, to send a similar photo.
