Roger Federer played his final professional match on Friday night, falling in doubles play alongside longtime rival Rafael Nadal to Americans Frances Tiafoe and Jack Sock at the Laver Cup on Friday in London. After the match, the two all-time greats shared a poignant, emotional moment, which has become a defining image of this year in sports. NBA great LeBron James seems to agree.
“So AMAZING man!! Damn man ud83eudd7aud83eudd7aud83eudd7aud83eudd7aud83eudd7a,” James posted to his Instagram stories, sharing a tweet from ESPN’s Field Yates of the two teary-eyed tennis legends after the match.
