Melbourne: Roger Federer may be one of the greatest tennis players of all time, but he'll freely admit - he's not the best singer.
After Federer's fourth-round win over Kei Nishikori, former Grand Slam winner Jim Courier interviewed him in Rod Laver Arena about the match and then surprised him with a special video that Federer had posted on Twitter the day before.
In the clip, Federer is singing Chicago's "Hard to Say I'm Sorry" with fellow players Tommy Haas and Grigor Dimitrov, while David Foster, who wrote the 1982 hit song, accompanied them on piano. After a few seconds, Courier wanted to know who was off-key? Was it Federer?
"I thought it was terrible acoustics in that room," Federer said, laughing. "I didn't even know that song that well. The lyrics were not my thing. My voice was playing up a little bit." Haas, however, knew the song well and saved the group, Federer said.
