Roger Federer new Uniqlo revelation: Wimbledon star did THIS after losing quarter-final
ROGER FEDERER has ensured new sponsor Uniqlo will forever be etched in the Wimbledon history books.
Roger Federer feels 'just awful' after Wimbledon defeat
Federer, 36, took to Centre Court on the opening day of the Championships wearing a Uniqlo t-shirt - confirming he had ditched long-term sponsors Nike.
And he has now donated the Uniqlo top he wore in his quarter-final defeat to Kevin Anderson to the Wimbledon museum.
Nearly 4,000 visitors took in the museum during the Fortnight - a nine percent increase on 2017.
Donations from this year, alongside Federer’s top, include:”
- Angelique Kerber's signed dress as worn in the Ladies' Singles Final
- Kevin Anderson's signed t-shirt, racket and shoes worn during the Gentlemen's Singles Final
- John Isner's shoes worn during the longest Gentlemen's semi-final in the history of The Championships at six hours, 36 minutes
- Stefanos Tsitsipas' racket - the first man from Greece to reach the fourth round of a Grand Slam event in the Open era
- Mike Bryan's signed racket used during the Gentlemen's Doubles Final
