But if you fire up the Peloton app and search the handle “ federer1,” you’ll find an account with about 4,500 followers, a tennis ball in the icon photo and some absolutely absurd performance metrics. Unlike those athletes, he’s never posted about using a bike on social media. Roger Federer’s Peloton usage, meanwhile, is unconfirmed. They all seem to be chasing Rory McIlroy, who regularly puts up god-like numbers and occasionally calls out other guys on the Tour. There’s even a brotherhood of Peloton-obsessed PGA golfers, including Bubba Watson, Adam Scott, Brooks Koepka and Justin Thomas. Not just for cardio-focused Olympians, like middle-distance runner Colleen Quigley, but also for NFL quarterbacks like Russell Wilson, Cam Newton and Pat Mahomes.

If he had to pick a year to sit out, though, it would probably be the one in which his beloved Wimbledon was canceled (for the first time since World War II) and tournaments were postponed and played in empty arenas.ĭuring all that time off, Federer did Federer things. Not long after, he underwent the first of two arthroscopic surgeries for a right knee injury, which effectively ended his season. He competed only in January’s Australia Open, where he was knocked out in the semifinals. Last year was a bit of a lost year for the 39-year-old Swiss, though. He’s arguably the greatest tennis player who’s ever lived, he has 20 Grand Slam Titles, and in 2020, he beat out the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and LeBron James for the distinction of “world’s highest-paid athlete,” reeling in $106.3 million over the previous calendar year.
