Swiss Street Named In Roger Federer's Honour

Swiss tennis legend Roger Federer has inaugurated a street bearing his name before 1,500 admirers in Biel, canton Bern.

The “Allée Roger Federer” now connects the national centre for Swiss Tennis at the Tissot Arena sports complex with the Champs-de-Boujean in the town in northwest Switzerland.

“I am very moved. I never thought I would see a street named after me,” Federer declared on Thursday, smiling and very relaxed.  “I hope that we will see future champions on the Allée Roger Federer. Thanks a million.”

The current world number three cut the red ribbon during a brief ceremony in the presence of municipal authorities, before signing autographs.


The idea to name a street to honour Roger Federer was launched in 2010. For the Biel authorities, the goal was to commemorate the connection between the city and the tennis star, who completed part of his junior training in the region.

"For Roger Federer, it is a journey through time," said Mayor Erich Fehr.


On Thursday Federer, who holds 17 Grand Slam titles, also symbolically launched construction work at the site of a new CHF8.5 million ($8.7 million) Swiss Tennis event and training centre, whose opening is scheduled for early next year.

This is not the first time a street has been named in his honour. In 2012, the city of Halle, in Germany, unveiled “Roger-Federer-Allee” in recognition of Federer’s success on the grass at the Gerry Weber Open.

The Roger juniors: Look at the children of Federer, starting to play tennis


at age 34, Roger Federer not only remains valid as one of the best players on the circuit, but also leads a large family. The former world No. 1, considered by many as the greatest tennis player in history, has four children, two separate sets of twins; the largest are Myla and Charlene, both born on July 23, 2009; children are Leo and Lenny (6 May 2014), which has not met the two years. Everyone, from her relationship with former tennis player Mirka Vavrinec, with whom he married in 2009, but he met 16 years ago in Sydney.

Apparently, the children, who tend to follow the footsteps of his father by the world of rackets, seem to want to follow in his footsteps, as they are seen in these images.


Of course, much remains to know your skills with the racket, but if they inherit the talent of Roger, maybe this last image ever come true ... So far, only it is a joke that circulated photo by networks social.
