In a recent interview with Tages-Anzeiger, Roger Federer shared that since retiring he only plays tennis with his children, Charlene Riva, Myla Rose, Leo, and Lenny, as he cherishes the opportunity to spend quality time with them on the court.

"Only with the children. I've never booked a court with friends and said, 'Come on, let's go train now.' But I'm often on the court with the children. I love playing with them," he said.

The Swiss also admitted that he continues to frequently check tennis scores throughout the day, even though he is no longer an active player.

He acknowledged that his demanding schedule, which includes traveling and spending time with his children, often leaves him with limited time to stay updated on the latest scores.

"I'm very surprised at how often and how frequently I check the scores, three times a day maybe, then, of course, all of a sudden, there's days where I check out for like a week. I'm with the kids, and then I'm traveling, and I'm gone, and, you know, you forget about everything around yourself," he added.

Federer, 41, retired in September last year, playing his final match at the Laver Cup.
