Haha that's awesome. I dont know what I would do if I was in the situation of getting to hit with Federer. It's clearly just a fun knock-about but I would be so tempted to go all out and try and hit everything for winners lol. But that obviously would just end up with me embarrassing myself, giving my all and Federer beating me with his eyes closed pretty much lol

He must be GOAT then. He has already a positive H2h in points !!

Just kidding. I am happy for the kid and he plays well for 8 year old. :)

That kid has insane feel for his age. To hit shots like and even surprise Federer is pretty impressive.

That kid is damn lucky

How arrogant of the kid to win a point off Federer!

He has the same arrogant walk as Federer after he wins the point!

I recall some auction for charity where you could hit for an hour with Fed. I think it got bid up to 800 thousand dollars. Gives you a sense of how much people are willing to give to hit with RF.

The little already had proficient command of several grips and very nice technique.

It looks like it was at an exhibition event put on by Net Jets. There's videos of other kids playing with him.
