Then again, it’s still very early in the tournament, and Federer likely wasn’t as stressed as he’ll be in future rounds, and he’d handily defeated his opponent Aljaz Bedene without dropping a set.
Had this been a more pressing match for the tennis great, it would’ve been interesting to see his responses to Ferrell’s off-the-wall jokes, and whether or not he would have had that same good humor.
It’s a little surprising that someone gave the ok for Will Ferrell to go out there and do his surreal bits with the athlete immediately after a match like that, so it’s great that Roger Federer was such a good sport for the surprise celebrity interview.
