Roger Federer’s much-anticipated documentary, “Federer: The Last Twelve Days” is generating excitement and hype. In the recently released videos, much of the spotlight has been on his great rival Novak Djokovic.

The two tennis titans haven’t had as close a relationship on the court as the Swiss Maestro has had with Rafael Nadal. This aspect is explored in the documentary.

In one of the clips, Federer asked director Asif Kapadia if he was making some players look bad on camera. Kapadia then goes on to question Federer whether they were being too harsh on Djokovic

Federer acknowledged his shortcomings by admitting that he didn’t give the Serb the respect he deserved throughout his career. The Maestro’s critical comments about Djokovic were mostly related to his gameplay in his earlier years. Specifically, Federer believed Djokovic’s backhand wasn’t as strong as it is now.


The documentary is set to air on Amazon Prime on June 20. However, it is already being shown on international cinema screens worldwide. Federer himself has shared an update on Instagram about going to one of the cinemas and enjoying the documentary.

Despite his legendary status in the sport, Federer emphasizes that he doesn’t pressure his children to pursue tennis. He even admits feeling relieved that his older daughters, Myla and Charlene, have shown little interest in the game.

Federer, who has two sets of twins, notes that 10-year-old Leo is enthusiastic about tennis. Both boys, Leo and Lenny, also enjoy playing football, with Lenny displaying a talent for creative activities.

Reflecting on his retirement nearly two years ago, the 20-time Grand Slam champion appreciates having more time to spend with his children. He mentioned that his kids have begun expressing interest in attending Wimbledon for the Championships.
