Interestingly, Federer had expressed his intention to attend Swift’s concert and meet her for several years. In a 2022 interview with People following his retirement, Federer mentioned, “We went to a lot of concerts last year. I didn’t sing, I just played a little shaker thing. But we also saw [Bruce] Springsteen twice, and Elton John. This summer Taylor Swift is coming to Switzerland so of course we’ll go to that, and ACDC too.”
Recently, a documentary titled Twelve Final Days, focusing on Federer’s retirement decision, premiered on Prime Video.
