Roger Federer Graces One of Six Covers for TIME's 100 Most Influential People Issue

Roger Federer graces of six TIME covers this week for the magazine's annual 100 Most Influential People issue.

Federer, 36, has won three of the last five tennis Slams, including the Australian Open and Wimbledon in 2017 and the Australian Open again in 2018. Federer holds a record 20 Grand Slam titles and is considered by many to be the best men's tennis player of all time.

His late-career resurgence reached its peak when he became the oldest player to reach world No. 1 in February, more than five years after he last topped the rankings.
