Long before Challengers turned tennis into a metaphor, Roger Federer used his sport as a way into learning life’s lessons. He imparted a number of them to Dartmouth College’s latest graduating class in what has now become a viral commencement speech.
“Graduates, I feel your pain. I know what it’s like when people keep asking what your plan is for the rest of your life,” he joked. But even though he’s left the professional courts, Federer is sharing the wisdom he learned from his time on the grass.
