5 non-tennis facts you didn't know about Roger Federer

5. He’s into rock music

Roger Federer met Angus Young, the frontman of legendary rock band AC/DC (also Federer’s favourite)

He may play classical piano and live a sedate personal life, but Federer’s musical tastes are anything but. The ever-smiling, cheerful, calm Swiss ace has musical tastes that are decidedly more rock and roll!

His favourites? Australian hard rock band AC/DC, and American guitarist Lenny Kravitz!

We don’t know if he prefers the Bon Scott days or the Brian Johnson era – but his records are surely not going to Fly Away.

P.S – we’re not entirely sure if his son Lenny (whose full name is Lennart), is named after the guitarist. But it’s possible.

6. Bonus: He’s a keen football watcher, like one of his best friends, Rafael Nadal.

Nadal’s a big fan of Real Madrid – and wants to be the president of the club in the future – but Federer is a big fan of local club FC Basel!
