20-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer celebrated his 40th birthday yesterday. Many renowned entities of the sports fraternity wished him happiness and success on his special day as he is one of the greatest players of all time. It is hard to believe that the Swiss Maestro is 40 as he still looks so fit.

Interestingly, Former World No.5 Eugenie Bouchard forgot to wish Roger Federer on his birthday as she was doing a show on the Tennis Channel. However, she recently wished him after a day from her new office. She also recalled one of her first meetings with the Swiss Maestro after he won the Wimbledon Championships 2012 title.
