Of course, this is thanks largely to endorsements, including deals with Uniqlo and Mercedes. and he’s not shy on spending some of that cash on property, including £13m on this incredible apartment in Dubai with stunning views of the marina.
Take a tour of the exclusive digs where the Swiss tennis legend, who announced his retirement from the sport on Thursday, will now relax in as he enjoys life after competing.
DUBAI’S MOST EXCLUSIVE TOWER
Back in 2014, Federer realised he needed his own property in Dubai.
He would spend most winters using the outstanding facilities on offer in the Middle East when it was freezing in Switzerland, where he has two homes.
So he bought a presidential penthouse in Le Reve (which means ‘The Dream’ in French).
Known as Dubai’s most exclusive tower, it overlooks the stunning marina that’s filled with yachts worth hundreds of millions.
Former Formula One star Fernando Alonso is also said to own an apartment in the 689ft, 50-storey building that offers incredible views of the ocean, Burj Al Arab and Palm Jumeirah.
“I remember it was brutally hot, I think like 39 Celsius every day. But I had a good time practising, it was peace and quiet and we kind of enjoyed it here,” Federer once said.
