Billionaire Roger Federer’s Accidental Parenting Advice Actually Thrusted Serena Williams’ Business Further as She Landed a Whopping Multi-Million Dollar Deal in 2018

Both on and off the tennis court, tennis legends Serena Williams and Roger Federer have a lot in common. They both retired last year and maintained a proper work-life balance between tennis and family, even after having children with their respective spouses. Additionally, they believe very similarly about raising children. So much so that there was a moment when they both coincidentally thought the same thing about having a comfy car to drive with their children. 

The Swiss master drives and owns many Mercedes-Benz vehicles, along with serving a great relationship with the luxury automaker. Williams, on the other hand, enjoys traveling and has a fantastic relationship with Lincoln Motor Company. Apart from the fact that they both favor cars, there is another significant coincidence that connects them and could be a reason why Williams landed a million-dollar agreement with the same automobile. 

Roger Federer and Serena Williams share the same mindset 

Back in 2017, the 23-time Grand Slam champion was ready to embrace motherhood for the first time. The Swiss maestro, who was already a father to four children, shared some parenting advice for Williams. In an interview with For The Win, he shared the suggestion as a father and a Mercedes Benz ambassador, who has done various commercials for the brand.

He said, “We should get her a car. She needs to move to a van now because you’ve got the stroller and everything, so I would suggest a big car.” However, coincidentally, after a year of embracing motherhood, the 41-year-old tennis player made a similar sponsorship deal that unknowingly went with the ATP tennis legend’s suggestion.

In 2018, the Ford-owned luxury automobile company and The Queen of Courts signed a contract. Lincoln is one of the most successful deals that she has ever made. And since then, she is making quite a handful of millions with the deal. Nevertheless, apart from this unexpected coincidence, Williams had her own reason to go for the luxury car brand.
