Roger Federer BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Big news in the Roger Federer orbit this week: The Swiss legend has officially become a billionaire, three years after stepping off the professional tennis court. According to Bloomberg and prominently reported by Telegrafi, Federer’s net worth now stands at a stunning 1.2 billion euros, making him the first non-American athlete to hit this financial milestone and placing him in rarefied air beside icons like Michael Jordan, LeBron James, and Tiger Woods. Federer amassed only a fraction of this wealth through prize money; the real action has been off the court. His strategic endorsements with Rolex, Lindt, Mercedes-Benz, and especially a 275-million-euro Uniqlo deal kept the cash flowing. His even savvier investment in On Running, the Swiss sportswear company, means his equity stake alone sits well above 400 million euros, per World in Sport's October 2025 list of the richest in tennis. Team8, the sports management group he co-founded, and the annually growing Laver Cup, to which he lent not only his name but his relentless perfectionism, have become lucrative fixtures in the tennis calendar—Forbes estimates the 2025 edition exceeded 20 million dollars in sponsorship and hospitality revenue.
Business activity keeps Federer squarely in the luxury lane. Uniqlo’s new HEATTECH campaign just dropped, with Cate Blanchett and Federer as the visually arresting faces for the Extra Warm Cashmere Blend. The campaign is generating buzz not just for the clothing tech but for the pairing of two sophistication icons—Federer models the Men’s Crew Neck, naturally, while Blanchett rocks the Turtleneck, according to Uniqlo’s global press announcement. Meanwhile, Esquire UK is celebrating Federer’s 25-year partnership with Rolex, calling him “Rolex personified,” and speculating about a potential Silver Anniversary special edition timepiece.
Philanthropy remains at the core of Federer’s public life. In late October, the Roger Federer Foundation announced a new collaboration with the OneSight EssilorLuxottica Foundation, launching a vision care initiative that brought screenings and free prescription eyewear to more than 2,700 Zambian schoolchildren. Federer publicly underscored that “good vision was essential to everything I did on court,” but for children “it’s about something even more important—their education and their future.” Vision Monday noted this pilot marks a new phase in his foundation’s far-reaching early education initiatives across southern Africa and echoes Federer’s longstanding commitment to both local and global impact.
On the social front, Federer continues to trend for his ongoing friendship with Rafael Nadal—Sportskeeda quoted Nadal’s emotional reflections this week about Federer's retirement’s effect on him, cementing their place as sporting soulmates. Federer is a regular fixture in lifestyle media, with posts about his family, watches, and signature effortless style making the rounds on Instagram and TikTok, but there are no eruption-worthy viral moments these days, just a steady hum of global admiration and aspirational envy. Speculation about Federer returning to tennis in any competitive role remains unfounded—no credible reports suggest anything beyond his ambassador, investor, and philanthropy hats.
In short, the Federer brand has never been stronger, more diversified, or more chic—from fashion to finance to giving back, he is setting the gold standard for the athlete as a modern mogul.
