Roger Federer Switzerland Tourism ambassador

With Switzerland's tourism sector struggling due to the Covid-19 pandemic, they required an ambassador to promote their country's tourism and who could do it better than Tennis ace Roger Federer. Having made his debut in 1998, Federer has moved from strength to strength and has managed to win 20 Grand Slams, a record he continues to share with Rafael Nadal. The Swiss Maestro has also made his country proud by winning the Olympics gold medal in the doubles competition back in Beijing 2008. A few years ago, Switzerland Tourism had also appointed Hindi film actor Ranveer Singh as its brand ambassador for the Indian market, in an attempt to woo tourists from the country.
