Tennis superstar Roger Federer is in full Swiftie mode after attending Taylor Swift’s “The Eras Tour” concert.
In this era of blending boundaries, sports and music no longer exist in a separate universe. Instead, they harmoniously collide, creating a new wave of athletes who are just as comfortable rocking out to 'Love Story' as they are making history in their sport.
It was definitely “The Best Day” for Tennis legend Roger Federer as he finally achieved his “wildest dream” of meeting his idol, the pop mega-star Taylor Swift during Night 1 of her concert at Stadion Letzigrund, in Zu¨rich, Switzerland.
In his recent Instagram post, the 20-time singles major tournament winner has shared a selfie with the multi-platinum artist, with a caption in which emojis in order encapsulate the vibes of Swift’s album: 2006's Taylor Swift, 2008's Fearless, 2010's Speak Now, 2012's Red, 2014's 1989, 2017's Reputation, 2019's Lover, 2020's Folklore, 2020's Evermore, 2022's Midnights and 2024's The Tortured Poets Department.
“In my Swiftie era 🦋🫶💜🧣🌃🐍💘🪩🌲🕰?🤍,” the Swiss legend wrote.
Federer also flexed his collection of friendship bracelets in reference to Taylor’s hit song “You're on your own, Kid” from her album Midnights.

And of course, The Eras Tour vibes wouldn’t be complete without trading his collection, so here’s a video from a Swiftie who captured him smiling from ear to ear as he shared his handmade bracelets.
Less than a month ago, French Open champion Iga Swiatek became emotional after receiving a handwritten letter from the 14-time Grammy winner.
