Pretty neat, shows how much he means to that country as I would’ve never imagined an athlete or anyone but an important political person or president being on currency.

 

[DjokoKing]

Literally nobody cares.

 

[TheLastJedi]

Rogie's really got a few Rogie now, no?

 

[Beechaii2]

Literally nobody cares.

The ordering website crashed so I guess several hundred thousand or millions do. Oops.

 

[Kat_YYZ]

I hope the ATP will use it for the coin toss.

 

[Jolyon]

But Olderer loves notes more than coins. Too bad. Too bad.

The irony, he is hitting backhand on those coins...

The irony, he is hitting backhand on those coins...

Judging by the grip, he is preparing a slice...

I think it is poor taste to do these kind of things for athletes that are still active.

The city of Malmo raised a statue of Zlatan a few months ago outside the stadium. Then last week, Zlatan announced he had bought 25% of another club and was going to help them become the best club in Sweden. People now not very happy with statue...

Judging by the grip, he is preparing a slice...

Judging by the swing it's topspin BH, his slice takeback is more horizontal, and swing goes more out-wide. Anyway that isn't my point at all, not to go off-topic, his bread and butter was his FH, I guess coin makers only went for good artistic impression, not the meaning.

 

[Bella&Mirka]

Well deserved for the GOAT of all talents, all they need to do now is change the first 5 letters of the country from Switz to Fed.

 

[WeakestTennisEra]

Lol Federer doesn't even consider him to be Swiss. He feels more attached to South Africa. He feels more patriotic towards SA.

 

[ssynhtn]

Is it an attempt to make him not cry when Nadal inevitably passes him in slam count?

 

[laughingcavalier]

... The coins should be a 40 cent coin and a 15 cent coin LOL!

Nah it looks like his trademark slice BH break point return.

 

[n00b]

I am outvoted by MTF experts, still begging to differ.

Demand for Roger Federer commemorative coins broke Swiss mint’s online shop

It remains a challenge getting through the online shop today, but there are still about 10,000 coins available to buy.

Picture ^^^ of the shot.



@1:49 ^^^ is the shot.



@3:34 ^^^ is a similar shot. And a similar plot.

 

[monfed]

Amazing. Wonder why it took so long. The Swiss don't appreciate their own superstars.

 

[MWW]

I hope the ATP will use it for the coin toss.

No, it will be accused of being a biased coin!
