Steph Curry recently met Roger Federer over Laver Cup discussion

Recently, Stephen Curry was also seen with another tennis legend, 20-time Grand Slam winner Roger Federer after he visited Chase Center, the home ground of Golden State Warriors. Federer decided to visit Chase Center after it was announced that the stadium will host the upcoming Laver Cup in 2025.

Federer was honored with a standing ovation in the Chase Center and was introduced as one of the greatest athletes in the world. He said that enjoyed his time with the Warriors as the tennis legend was also seen shooting hoops.

Roger Federer may have hung up his tennis racquet as he announced his retirement in September 2022, but his sporting instincts seemed still intact as he shot four shots and had all four successful baskets which surprised the Warriors head coach Steve Kerr. Federer then said, “Okay, we stop, I made four from four. That was so lucky.”
