Roger Federer’s hair has become an optical illusion
When you think of Roger Federer your mind probably turns to one of his classic Wimbledon matches with Rafael Nadal, some outlandish under the leg shot at the Australian Open, or his heroic performances in the Davis Cup.
The last thing that comes to mind would be his hair. But, thanks to an odd press conference photo, it’s exactly what has so many people talking about the tennis legend.
In a fad that takes us back to that infamous dress, this picture poses the odd but important (well to some people) question – is Federer a blonde or a brunette?

It certainly looks like the 18-time Grand Slam champion has had an unfortunate trip to the barber, but if you look at the comparison with a press conference image taken from a different angle, the photograph tells a different story.
STOP EVERYTHING!@rogerfederer has a new look! 😍👌🏼
