ATP: Roger Federer can live well with these “defeats”.

A little more than three weeks left, then Roger Federer will be celebrating his 20th birthday. Grand Slam title. In the season 2017, which was so rich in successes, the Swiss then missed out on a few more awards.

A quarter-final defeat for Roger Federer – as the defending champion! Well, not on the tennis court this time, but in the favor of the part of the public who participated in the “Most Stylish Man” vote of the magazine GQ. Harry Styles, a singer, won the round of the last eight against Federer, very close.

In the round of 16, the Swiss rider had confidently passed former US President Barack Obama,”defeated”in the opening match against actor Edgar Ramirez, who in a TV series next year will represent the fashion star Gianni Versace.

The title of “Most Stylish Man”, however, could also go to an athlete in 2017: David Beckham, long since retired from football, is one of the four remaining aspirants next to Zayn Malik, who grew up with Styles in the boy band One Direction, and actor Tom Hiddleston.

In other respects, the Forbes magazine predicted a few days ago, it looks quite good for the 19-time Grand Slam champion. With a career earnings from advertising contracts and prize money of 675, Federer ranks “only” in 15th place among the highest incomes of athletes, but he should also be financially very well positioned after the end of his active time. The list is headed by Michael Jordan with 1.85 billion US dollars.

The ex-Basketball player of the Chicago Bulls (and in a less successful chapter of the Washington Wizards as well) signed lucrative advertising contracts early on in his career, and with the sporty, less successful purchase of the Charlotte Hornets his fortune as an NBA team owner increased even further.

Andre Agassi is the second tennis player in the top 25 after Federer. The US-American concludes the list with a total earnings of 470 million US dollars.

And speaking of Forbes: In an assessment of the players who enjoy watching it best, Federer was placed second. Behind Nick Kyrgios, whose temperament was thrown into the scales. And before rising star Denis Shapovalov.
