New York: It’s clearly a known fact that Swiss tennis ace Roger Federer is one of the nicest personalities both on and off the court. This time around the 17 time Grand Slam winner took his exploits to a whole new level when he was seen cleaning the court after a practice session at the ongoing US Open 2015.
That’s not all! Recently, after he defeated the big serving John Isner in his fourth round match, Federer also showed that he is also a great father and kids are most important to him.
After winding up a rigorous training session, Federer, who reached the semis and will face Davis Cup teammate Stan Wawrinka, got rid of the extra bottles and towels left by other players on the court.

It is here, that in the process the fans were crushing a small boy who was trapped in the crowd. Noticing the boy’s alarms, Federer told the security to stop the autograph session and requested the security people to pull the boy out.
