Listening to him give directions as you drive gives you the impression that he is sitting right beside you, even though you are only hearing him on the app. And recently, Shelby Rogers, an American tennis player, recently checked out this incredible experience of having the Swiss Maestro offer her directions on Waze.

Last month, the billionaire tennis legend surprised his fans with this fantastic collaboration news. The Swiss Star formed a partnership by taking over as the new voice of the navigation app.
