Kate Middleton plays tennis with Roger Federer at Wimbledon<\/h3>\n

Roger Federer has revealed he checks tennis scores \u2018several times a day\u2019 but struggles to fit much playing time into his post-retirement schedule. The iconic former player instead tries to teach his children to play.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Federer retired a year ago following a tough battle with a recurring knee injury. It brought to an end the dominance of tennis\u2019 Big Three, with only Rafael Nadal – who will retire in 2024 – and Novak Djokovic remaining.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 42-year-old was at Wimbledon earlier this year, watching the 20-year-old Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz win the tournament for the first time. But he admits he did not wish he was on court.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Instead, Federer is perfectly happy to simply keep a distance and check the scores \u2018several times a day\u2019. He has been busy post-retirement, spending time with his family and continuing his rehabilitation from several knee problems.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Asked if there were any players he specifically roots for on the tour, Federer told the Wall Street Journal: \u201cNo, but I\u2019m surprised how much I follow scores. I check several times a day to see the scores and what\u2019s going on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Federer says he scarcely plays much tennis anymore, instead preferring to sit back while his friends compete. The 20-time Grand Slam champion has also tried to get his kids into the sport.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t play much tennis anymore, other than with the kids. As a former player, to book a court and get someone to hit with you is a process, so you end up not doing it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOn vacation, I just played with our friends in the Hamptons. I\u2019m not super competitive. It\u2019s just nice to be out there and then sit on the terrace and let the sweat go a bit.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll four kids love it. The girls didn\u2019t love it in the beginning but as they get better, they\u2019re enjoying it and playing points now. They were up at [John] McEnroe Academy in East Hampton, and the boys were in Mallorca at the [Rafael Nadal] camp for a couple of days.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asked if he coaches his children, he added: \u201cWhen I have time\u2014and I try to make the time\u2014I go on the court with them and try to teach them a little bit. It\u2019s obviously an interesting dynamic, because I\u2019m the dad, and not a former player. It is what it is [laughing].\u201d<\/p>\n
