EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS
The voiceover tells us about Roger’s legendary fair play and sets the theme of the episode: Roger’s elegance, on and outside the court. The voiceover gives Anna Wintour – close friend of the Federers – the task to guide us through this theme.
Thanks to many archives images, we will compare Roger’s elegance and serene face on the lawn with other great players’ faces. They are reddish, sweating, looking like they could pass away. On the other hand Roger’s face remains placid, calm, full of serenity.
We meet his first trainer Peter Ludgren, who will reveal that young Roger was obsessed with his style. This obsession could have actually been anti-competitive. He would watch and re-watch his own games again and again, expressing his will to show off through incredible hits. Style was taking too much place in his game.
Then, Zverev and Thiem gently make fun of Roger’s first looks. Indeed, he hasn’t always been the fashion icon we know today. His attitude also was problematic. He had to make amends and get better. This explains why he is the only tennis player alive to be known for his aura. https://www.paperblog.fr/8602642/l-evolution-du-style-de-roger-federer-sur-et-en-dehors-des-courts/
