Roger Federer Is Now Meeting Koalas and Kangaroos [Video]

Roger Federer’s incredible off season of news continued this weekend in Brisbane where the 17-time Grand Slam champion played the role of city tourist, visiting several of the local attractions including the Koala Sanctuary.

Ahead of his first match later next week, Federer met some Koala bears and Kangaroos as he soaked the Australian wildlife.

Sunday night Federer is scheduled to meet former great Rod Laver during a special event.

Playing Brisbane for the first time, Federer will face either Jarkko Nieminen or James Duckworth in the second round.

Here’s video of the event:
