Roger's humility is next level. The fact that he felt embarrassed to tell the security guard who he was, just shows how humble he is. Any other person with a fraction of his achievements would've pulled the "do you know who I am? " card within seconds of the interaction.

Federer is very humble and down to earth. He's one of the greatest tennis players and my favorite. Always love his trick shots (super amazing) as well as his sportsmanship. The fact that he didn't pull the "do u know who I am" card and instead was begging to the security lady just speaks volume of his character.

Such humility at such heights. Respect!

a true gentlemen...and the way he tells the story. Just wow❤❤❤

Its a great story, but also great to know there are people out there still oblivious to stars, and just simply doing their job.

Damn!!! Give this man a membership card😂😂😂 Humility of this man is a dying breed! An idol forever ❤❤❤

"Wheres your membership card?" Umm. I'm Roger Federer..

How can anyone not love this man

Absolute hero - More Fed content please!

He's the definition of a class act!

Late lessons sunk late nor never! Roger ❤❤

As Roger is known to say "It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice." He has truly left tennis better than when he joined it. :)

So few sportsmen that i appreciate as much as Federer, he's just pure class. His english being so flawless always catches me off guard too.

Such a lovable guy!

HE ROCKS!….HE’S AWESOME…..luv Roger Federer ❤🤗

He's so sweet and kind

The way he said yes was funny.. it's like he wants the lady guard to hear that someone wants to take a selfie of him... haha 😂

This is one of the coolest and funniest sports stories I've heard!

I love that he didn't come right out and tell the lady who he was. You'd think after he said "eight times" that she'd have caught on. Great ending though.

Smart lady, she was like "Yeah and the guy at the Oracle Arena was Klay Thompson right?"

This is why he is so popular, didn't drop the classic: "Do you know who i am" line, on the first security person 😀

He didn't put his name first, like more celebrities or famous people usually do. He puts his achievements first who defines who he is. "I won this 8 times, trust me I'm a member"😅

Man he’s had some work done

Evacuate the city, engage all defenses and get this man a Membership Card
