Roger Federer is set to take on a brand new role that will surprise his fans and admirers alike. The tennis legend will step into unfamiliar territory as the commencement speaker at Dartmouth College this year. Dartmouth, known for its prestigious Ivy League status, has chosen Federer for this esteemed speaker position.

But that’s not all – in addition to delivering the commencement speech, Federer will also be awarded an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree, adding another feather to his cap.

The announcement has caused a stir not just at Dartmouth but also at the Switzerland Embassy in the USA, where officials are thrilled to see their country’s beloved athlete take on such a prestigious role.

Since retiring from professional tennis in 2022, Roger Federer has dabbled in various sports and public appearances. However, this new role as a commencement speaker marks a significant and unexpected turn in his post-retirement career.
