Roger Federer might be one of the greatest tennis players of all time, but he's also a very humble person, which he recently proved.
The Swiss Maestro, as he's often called, won almost everything that he could win in tennis. He has 20 Grand Slam titles to his name, 103 career titles on the ATP Tour, and he held the World No. 1 spot for 310 weeks.
Throughout his career, he earned $130,594,339 in prize money on the tennis courts, and tens of million of dollars thanks to various activities off the courts.
It's not a surprise that most of the time, when he has to fly, Federer uses a private jet, or sits in the first class of an airplane. That, however, wasn't the case in one of his most recent flights.
One of the fans met Federer at the airport, but only a few minutes later, they were probably even more surprised to see him sitting right behind them on their flight to Johannesburg.
"Truly magnetized with the simplicity of legend who himself is 20 times winner of a Grand Slam. World’s number 1 tennis player! Only one name is enough: Roger Federer. I am still feeling hard to believe that we were on the same flight, and he was just in my back seat during traveling to Johannesburg Airport!"
In recent weeks, the Swiss player traveled quite a lot as he visited Lesotho as part of his charity activities, but he also attended the F1 Miami Grand Prix and co-hosted the popular Met Gala.
With his flight to Johannesburg in South Africa, where he has roots through his mother, Lynette Federer, the former World No. 1 player showed that his life is not all about prestigious events and private flights but that he doesn't have any problem with boarding a regular flight.
