Federer’s Wimbledon-winning racket could fetch $100,000 at auction
According to TMZ, a unique and rare item has been put up for auction: Roger Federer’s racket from his 2004 Wimbledon victory. What makes this Wilson nCode Pro racket even more special is Federer’s autograph, personally inscribed for his close friend Anna Wintour.
This particular racket holds historical significance as it’s considered the first to be photographed during Federer’s Grand Slam triumphs. Federer signed it for Wintour and her daughter, a fitting gesture given their long-standing friendship. Wintour was frequently seen attending Federer’s matches.
The final sale price of the racket is expected to exceed $100,000. Interested buyers can acquire this valuable piece of memorabilia through Prestige Memorabilia, with bidding open until February 9.
Roger Federer, an 8-time Wimbledon champion, also boasts 6 Australian Open titles, 5 US Open victories, and 1 French Open win. The Swiss legend has a total of 103 ATP tournament titles in his illustrious career.
