The eight-time Wimbledon tennis champion struggled to get past the gates because he wasn't used to being asked for his membership pass.
Roger Federer thought his eight tournament wins at Wimbledon would be enough to get him past the visitor gate - but he was thwarted as a security guard enforced a"no card, no entry" policy.
The tennis star tried to drop by unannounced for tea with his coach when he was in London for a doctor's appointment. But when he drove up to the visitor gate and asked how he could get in, he was repeatedly asked for his membership card - with the security guard not recognising him., you become a member automatically. And honestly, I don't know about membership cards, they are probably at home somewhere and I've just been travelling, so I had no idea.
"I'm like, 'No, I don't have my membership card, but I am a member. I'm just wondering where I can get in'." The guard remained unmoved by his pleas, Federer told host Trevor Noah on The Daily Show, leaving him to try to explain again.
