Just when fans thought the evening couldn't get any better, Roger Federer unexpectedly joined Coldplay on stage.
Ever since his retirement, the 20-time Grand Slam champion, Roger Federer, seems to be indulging in a plethora of post-career activities that extend beyond the baseline. His latest venture? Making a surprise appearance at Coldplay's "Music of the Spheres World Tour" concert in Zurich, Switzerland.
Only recently, the Swiss Maestro appeared in Miami during an F1 race, then he appeared on the tennis court again when he made an appearance in Halle, and Federer also got to experience Wimbledon again, playing with Princess Kate.
This unexpected union of sports and music worlds in Zurich created a one-of-a-kind spectacle that amplified the exhilaration at the Letzigrund Stadium, sending shockwaves through the crowd that cheered on as the tennis legend appeared on the screen.
Coldplay's "Music of the Spheres World Tour" is a celebration of their ninth studio album. At the Zurich show, fans were settling in for this familiar journey when an unexpected twist occurred.
Roger Federer was spotted not just among the spectators, but actually on the concert stage. Invited by lead vocalist Chris Martin, Federer traded his usual racket for a shaker, his forehand for a rhythm, becoming an integral part of the performance of the globally adored song, "Don't Panic."
The Swiss Maestro proved his finesse is not limited to the tennis court. With a shaker in hand, Federer was not a mere on-stage guest but a captivating co-performer. Moreover, he even had his own solo, making the Zurich crowd go wild.
Federer will now probably shift his focus to Wimbledon, even though he's not participating. The 20-time major winner admitted that he's checking the tennis scores three times a day, and he will be doing that especially when his eight triumphs can be equaled by Novak Djokovic.
