ATP: Roger Federer visits the Golden State Warriors

Roger Federer has been in Shanghai for a few days now, but will only serve on Wednesday.The Swiss made use of the time until then to visit basketball.

The National Basketball Association has a traditionally great need for communication, coupled with tangible economic interests, which leads the reigning champion, the Golden State Warriors, to the Chinese metropolis of Shanghai.There’s nothing going on, the regular season hasn’t started yet, after all, people have become accustomed to Asian trips at European football clubs as well.The fact that the Warriors won their show-match against the Minnesota Timberwolves with 142:110 will remain a sporty side note.the result suggests that no value was attached to defensive work.

Prior to the start of the game, however, California champions Roger Federer received Roger Federer in their dressing room, the man who had already succeeded in the (very) extended home of the Warriors in Indian Wells this year.Federer is no stranger to basketball, the Swiss player has also played with Tommy Haas at the Los Angeles Lakers games.Roger Federer is known to have a passion for football, especially FC Basel, but he also has a passion for tennis.

Andy Murray, so it was at least a few years ago, outed himself as the Miami Heat’s owner of season tickets, the Maestro wouldn’t go that far, especially since Federer lives mainly in Switzerland.But why not just drop by, especially as the roster for the Swiss player in second place at the penultimate ATP Masters 1000 tournament of the year has only scheduled to start on Wednesday?And what if one of the really great Chinese sports icons, Yao Ming, was also at the start?
