ROGER Federer proved he still has some of the best skills in the tennis world, pulling out this ridiculous between-the-legs lob shot in his Round 2 clash with Sam Querrey at Wimbledon.

Despite being expected to retire in the near future in search of a ‘normal’ life , Federer showed the world he’s not finished having fun just yet.

His 27-year-old US opponent was rattled with this shot, chasing the ball to the back of the court in a scattered flurry.

Unfortunately for Querrey, his swift hack at the ball sent it straight to the bottom of the net, awarding Federer the point.
