Miami Mix: Federer’s Hidden Talent

Roger Federer turned his skills to mixing music this week in Miami during a party for Moët & Chandon at Sugar, a rooftop bar 40 stories up at EAST, Miami hotel.  Federer teamed with renowned DJ Nora En Pure, who has a South African and Swiss heritage, like the 25-time ATP World Tour Masters 1000 champion.

Federer was also presented with a special bottle of Moët & Chandon champagne to mark his 90^th tour-level title, achieved last weekend at the BNP Paribas Open in Indian Wells.

“Moet Moments are always different and creative,” Federer said. “Tonight is with a really cool DJ in Miami. So why not? The location is stunning and I love music, so that makes it a very cool event.”

Federer joked that he felt out of his comfort zone playing guest DJ. “I got nervous out there. It got complicated… a lot of buttons to be pressed and listening to the music blurred the rest of my brain. Anyway, it was great fun and we had a great time. I got a special bottle with No. 90 on it and I met a lot of cool and interesting people.”

On Saturday Federer will begin his quest for a third Miami Open title at Key Biscyane. Federer has enjoyed an outstanding start to 2017, winning his 18^th Grand Slam title at the Australian Open and his fifth title in Indian Wells.
