Soon after Roger Federer announced his retirement, a former ball boy now grown up admitted that he was the one who stopped the Swiss Maestro from hitting a ball during a match from his youngster years. “When I was 12, I stole one of Roger Federer‘s balls,” the former ball boy named Marco Pogo wrote on Twitter.
Pogo also shared a video with the moment.
