"Truly magnetised with simplicity of legend; hard to believe" - Tennis fans react to Roger Federer traveling economy on his recent flight

Roger Federer has delighted fans once again with his simplicity, traveling economy on a recent flight.

Federer retired from tennis last year at the Laver Cup, where he partnered with longtime friend and rival Rafael Nadal for a doubles match. Since then, the Swiss maestro has dedicated his time to family and his charities.

Federer has often showcased simplicity in his personal life, from cleaning the practice grounds of the US Open to flying economy. During his recent trip to South Africa, the 41-year-old traveled in economy and was seen going to the end of the aircraft for his seat.

A fan was mesmerized by the 20-time Grand Slam winner's simplicity and turned to Twitter to reflect on it.

"Truly magnetised with simplicity of legend who himself is 20 times winner of GSl," the fan wrote. "World's number 1 tennis player!Only name is enough R Federer. I'm still feeling hard to believe that we were in the same flight and he just to my back seat during traveling to [Johannesburg]."

Other fans also reacted to the video and commented on Federer's simple way of living and down-to-earth persona. One fan even joked about the eight-time Wimbledon winner's current financial situation.

"he retired and now he's in his poor era damn."

"is he flying economy LOL," one fan wrote.

Another fan called Federer's behavior worthy of a "legend."

"He’s traveling economy??Legend behavior."

One fan also talked about the Swiss superstar's smile.

"I’m obsessed with this video," the user wrote. "His smile lowkey laughing at the person that couldn’t resist and had to touch him lmao that’s so me in that situation."
