Alexander Zverev told Roger Federer to invite Diego Maradona to the exhibition. "I want to meet him. There are many great Argentinean sportsmen. Messi, Maradona, Ginobili... There is always someone standing out. And it has to see with the passion that is lived in this country. Here every sports event is a hit. You know that if you come to Argentina or if you face an opponent from this country, the crowd is packed, they support the players whatever the sport is. There is not anything better than this. It's a dream come true. Sitting here with Roger is unbelievable. He has always been my idol."

Federer, speaking of how he manages to stay competitive, said: "As the years go on everything gets tougher, especially the trips. With my experience I try to enjoy everything, perform at my best and compete against Djokovic, Nadal and the younger guys who achieve more things every time, like Thiem, Tsitsipas, Berrettini or Sascha. In my case, when I head into a stadium and I see 15,000 or 20,000 people motivating myself is easy."

“It's definitely not a regular time in tennis in the men's game. I don't think we would have thought that Novak, me and Rafa, all of us, were going to be so solid, so dominant for so many years.
