Roger Federer dropped by the tennis courts at Wimbledon to watch Nicholas Godsick play his boy’s singles match. Nicholas is the son of Federer’s longtime agent Tony Godsick and his wife Mary Joe Fernandez. It was not good outing for Godsick though . He was soundly beaten 6-2 and 6-0 by seventh seed Gilles Bailly.

Nicholas Godsick has good tennis genes. Mary Joe Fernandez reached three singles finals at three grand slams. She also won two doubles grand slam titles in her career.

Tony Godsick was Roger Federer’s agent at IMG. But he left the firm to start a sports management agency, Team8, with Roger Federer.

Roger Federer was in the Netherlands to raise money for the Roger Federer Foundation and the Esther Vergeer Foundation. Federer, Richard Krajicek, Federer, and Vergeer gave tennis lessons to 10 kids.

The previous day, Federer, an eight-time champion at Wimbledon, said he hopes to come back and play Wimbledon one more time. His last appearance at Wimbledon came in 2021 when he lost in the quarterfinals to Hubert Hurkacz.

Esther Vergeer is a retired wheelchair tennis player from the Netherlands. She won a combined 48 grand slam titles in singles and doubles. She ended her singles career on a remarkable winning streak of 470 matches.
