'Nadal in South Africa sold out exhibition is very special' - Federer
- 4 years ago
As he approaches his 22nd year on tour Roger Federer has highlighted another Grand Slam victory and the Olympic Games as his main goals for 2020.
Federer failed to add to his 20 Grand Slam titles in 2019 and admits he and his team need to 'go back to the drawing board' to achieve his objective.
Despite spending several family holidays in South Africa, the birthplace of his Mother, Federer has never played a competitive match in the African continent something he has worked hard to change.
The 38-year-old has arranged a charity exhibition match in Cape Town against his long term rival Rafael Nadal to support children's education in Africa.
The match will take place in February and sold out within minutes of going on sale.
