Summary The interesting conversation took place at the US Open.

NEW YORK (Dunya News) – The 19-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer shared a funny moment with an adorable kid when the boy asked the maestro that why people call him ‘The GOAT’ when there is not much livestock in Switzerland.

The interesting conversation took place at the US Open, where Roger Federer is bidding for a record 20th slam, and the champion player tried to answer the innocent questions asked by the minor on a lighter note. Here’s what they talked to each other:

Kid: I wanted to ask you Switzerland is really cool, right?

Federer: Not always, but most of the time.

Kid: There isn’t much livestock, so why do they call you ‘The GOAT’?

Federer: I don’t know. Some fans call me that, I don’t call myself that, but we’ve got a lot of animals in Switzerland, and goats are part of the livestock we’ve over there.

Kid: You have been the most consistent player of all time, can you please continue to play for eight, nine years so that I can play you when I go pro?

Federer: Yes, if you gonna make it on tour, I’ll make sure maybe I come back for you.

Kid: Is that a promise?

Federer: Almost a promise. Pinky promise.



It is worth mentioning here that the term GOAT is used for the greatest of all times, but the little boy confused it with the animal.
