Ahead of his inaugural exhibition series in South America next month, Roger Federer spent a few minutes playing a fun game of “Fact or Legend” with Felipe Andrioli on the Brazilian show “Deu Olé”.

During the light-hearted interview Federer was asked if he had better hair than his rival Rafael Nadal (Roger said Fact) and if he would dance the Samba while in Brazil (he also said Fact).

Federer begins his South American exhibition series on December 6 in Sao Paulo against Tomaz Bellucci. Federer is already in the gym working toward his upcoming trip.

Kimmi Says:

Looking at Brazilian women but not touching..ha haa

funny questions. sounds like he will have lots of fun.


Giles Says:

They should have asked him – who is more handsome, you or Rafa. Rafa FACT. Lol


alison Says:

Who has the best head of hair?any other time i would say who cares?as its a silly question anyway,and totally unrelated to tennis,but as it was done in a joking tongue in cheek type of way i would say both have lovely hair,as for who the most handsome is,then thats also a matter of preferance,some would say Roger,for me deffinetly Rafa,but thats JMO,other woman may feel differently,just my tongue in cheek answer to Giles post.


Dave Says:

Well-cooked feijoada is tasty.

Dancing the samba with a few dancers on a tennis court is one thing, but dancing the samba in the streets in Brazil’s Carnival (possibly with some painted naked dancers) is another!

2013 Australian Open: Over 7000 fans voted for the two male and two female players that they would most like to see on the cover of the 2013 AO official program.

– Federer won 2,855 votes (over 50% of the total men’s vote) ahead of Nadal who garnered 1372 votes (Giles, take note). Djokovic finished third with 798 votes.

– Sharapova won 785 votes (45% of the women’s votes) ahead of Serena with 386 votes.

Is this an indicator of market demand and popularity: about 80% of the votes were for the male players and less than 20% for the female players. Must be the hair!


Dave Says:

Ladies, which hair would you ruffle first:

Player A:

Player C (guy in the middle, though don’t let me stop you from the other two)

Dave, do not EVER take a plane anywhere! LOVE your posts!

And hey. Let’s be truthful. Roger has the best hair EVERRRRR! “-“


Polo Says:

Though we may argue ad infinitum as to who is the GOAT, one issue that is incontrovertible is that Roger has the best hair. May they forever grace his head and never go gray.


alison Says:

Dave all are very handsome,but personally have never cared much for men with long hair,long hair should be left to the ladies,Roger and Rafa both look much better with short hair,rather than with those naff pony tails,Novak has always had a nice tidy hair cut,and Andy looks much better now,and i never thought of Andre Agassi as been particulaly good looking till he shaved it all off,then i started to look at him very differently,same with Pat Rafter,i think the only one who gets away with it is Bjorn,as it was all the rage back then,the Kevin Keegan style mullet.


alison Says:

I have to agree with Madmax,although we support different players,and i might not always agree, i have to say i do enjoy reading Daves posts,and as for Rafa coming second in that survey,this Rafa fan is more than happy to live with that.


Dave Says:

Hi madmax, alison: Thanks much and same applies to your posts.

Maybe Federer gets to samba dance with next year’s Rio de Janeiro Carnival Queen…

madmax: I promise not to take a plane anywhere. And I promise not to deny the truth about Roger’s hair, lol.

One thing that’s beautiful about Brazil: the shooting stars on a clear night (or maybe falling satellites).

alison: Yeah, Agassi’s hair was horrific, lol. Actually I prefer Keegan in shorter hair. Btw, Rafa got twice as many votes as Sharapova or Novak, so that’s pretty good. Do you have a good picture of Rafa in shorter hair?

alison Says:

Dave agree about KK,Bjorn gets away with it though,loved the picture of Marat now that is one player whos hair i would love to ruffle,just about the sexiest retired player,not so much with the long hair but deffinetly now though,same with Berdych whos just about the sexiest player still playing,even though hes a total jerk whos attitude leaves alot to be desired,i havent actually got a picture of Rafa with his hair short,but ive seen plenty on his website,and if you put one up i would be a happy woman,lol im just wondering where this thread is going,some men will probably be getting an inferiority complex about their hair now after reading these comments,im actually losing my hair a little as its a side effect of thyriod trouble,and taking thyroxine,so in years to come i will probably be as bald as Lubi lol.
