As the 2024 Wimbledon Championships unfolds, tennis legend and Rolex Testimonee Roger Federer shares his views on the tournament, his journey as the sport’s number one player, and working together with the Swiss AAA Rolex replica watches brand.
From the first of July until the 14th, the eyes of the world will once again turn to the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in Wimbledon, London, for the 2024 Wimbledon Championships. And perhaps it goes without saying that extra attention will fall on reigning men’s singles champion Carlos Alcaraz, with many likening the Spanish superstar to tennis legend Roger Federer. Exactly 20 years ago, Federer returned to The Championships following his first win, and not only won his second Wimbledon Trophy but also went on to become the World No.1 player in the same year and holding that title for 237 consecutive weeks – a record that is yet to be broken.
Interestingly, Alcaraz and Federer have another thing in common: both are part of the Rolex family of Testimonees. High quality Rolex fake watches has been the Official Timekeeper of Wimbledon since 1978, and has always resonated with those who have the passion, skill and technical precision to excel in the epitome of tennis.
“From the very first time I walked out on court at The All England Club as a junior, I had a feeling that Wimbledon was special. I always believed that I was meant to like grass because of my style of play but I never thought I would achieve the results that I did,” Federer commented. “Luxury replica Rolex watches is a very important part of tennis globally; however, I believe that the clock on the court at Wimbledon has an even bigger impact than anywhere else.”
The connection between the Swiss-born 20-time Grand Slam champion and the Swiss watch brand felt especially natural, and grew deeper since Federer’s appointment as Rolex Testimonee in 2001. “Being from Switzerland gives me an even bigger sense of pride to be representing top Rolex copy watches and the many people behind the prestigious company,” he elaborated. “Seeing Rolex so embedded in tennis, a partnership that has been nurtured over such a long time, also makes me very happy and very proud. My relationship with perfect UK Rolex replica watches is so much more than just a working one, I feel like it’s a deep friendship and I always feel incredibly welcome whenever I am with the brand.”
Speaking of the present, however, Federer seems confident about the current lineup of top tennis players. “There is a lot to look forward to this season but, really, I just like watching great tennis. There are very talented younger players coming through like Rolex Testimonees Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner, who are performing well and winning the big tournaments,” he comments. “It’s always great to see major breakthroughs, with new stories unfolding and hopefully we will see some great matches too.”
With excitement and speculation about the 137th Wimbledon reaching a fever pitch, including the aforementioned comparison between Alcaraz and Federer, it’s worth reflecting on what the latter had to say about becoming World No.1. “In many ways it was emotionally hard to get to World No.1 because when I was edging closer to it, I just felt immense pressure,” Federer shared. “Once I became the World No.1 it felt like the weight lifted off my shoulders and I could really start to enjoy playing tennis. You often hear stories about how it’s harder to stay at the top, but for me it was actually easier to stay there, and I guess in many ways my record reflects that. Achieving it felt like climbing Mount Everest and then being on top of the mountain, able to appreciate the incredible achievement.”
And now, the world once again waits with bated breath for a new Wimbledon champion to emerge and follow in the footsteps of this amazing legend.
