Federer won’t be doing any TV at Wimbledon

Roger Federer has resurfaced on social media, with the Swiss icon answering questions and updating fans on a Twitter livechat.

The 41-year-old made it clear that he is not ready to step into any role as a television commentator and won’t be filling a BBC on-air chair at Wimbledon

“No plans to comment this year,” was his brief reply to that inquiry from the curious.

Federer also took a question from former coach and friend Ivan Ljubicic, who asked: Who is your favourite Croatian coach with no hair and a one-handed backhand?

“Give me a few hours to review the history books and I’ll get back to you,” the quick-witted Swiss retorted.
