"I feel like it's a very vital time to be around them and to help them, guide them, and obviously, let them also fly on their own. They do play tennis, and we ski, and we’re all learning to golf. We recently tried scuba diving. But the girls were never passionate about tennis, and I was relieved about it," he mentioned via People Magazine back in 2024.

The 44-year-old icon continued:

"The boys love their soccer. Leo is starting to show interest in getting serious about tennis. Lenny is much more creative, he’s very into drawing, reading."

Federer also heads the 'Roger Federer Foundation', which aims to help children in need in Southern Africa. The foundation also helps support the development of individual skills and aims to improve the children's situation over the long term.
