Roger Federer speaks about his incredible commitment with media

Swiss professional tennis player, World No. 3 Roger Federer speaks in many languages. The World No. 3, who talks to the press for at least an hour after a match between press conferences and exclusive interviews, said. “I don't know what they do. I know what I have to do in the tennis world. It's become a lot. I wish it was less sometimes. Sometimes I wish I never told anybody I learned French or something like that (laughter). I'm happy to speak it. It's a language we speak in Switzerland. I'm proud to have learned that language. At least I can communicate and have friends as well from that part of the world. English, I grew up speaking English, and obviously Swiss German. German we read and write. So for me, it's been nice being able to have so many friends around the world really. That it comes at a cost, sure. But I don't mind it. I try to have fun with it. I have almost - I don't want to say characters - but I have different humour in all the different languages, which is kind of fun for me, too. Getting to know me through different languages is actually quite interesting for me. I really enjoy it, even though it sometimes takes a bit more time out of the day. It's not every day I have to face the music like this, so it's not so bad.”
