"What a guy, what a legend" - Frances Tiafoe on Roger Federer's attendance at his US Open QF
Frances Tiafoe expressed his admiration for Roger Federation following the latter's presence at his quarterfinal clash against ninth seed Grigor Dimitrov. Tiafoe advanced to the US Open semifinal after the Bulgarian retired due to an issue in his leg.
In a press conference after his match, Tiafoe was asked about Federer gracing Arthur Ashe Stadium. The American commented that the now-retired Swiss tennis legend had the same sharp appearance in the stand as he did while playing.
"The way he looked in the suit was the same way he looked when he was playing. No sweating. Tees like ironed perfect, hair perfect. What’s up with this dude, man? Hair perfect. So it was just funny man."
He added:
"I give him crap about that all time. But what a guy, what a legend. So nice he’s just enjoying his life, doing his things. Like just popping in wherever he kind of wants to and everyone embraces him. Unbelievable, wherever he goes. I mean such an icon."
Tiafoe will face compatriot Taylor Fritz in the semifinals of the 2024 US Open.
