Before and After Wimbledon, Federer Talks to Facebook Fans

On Sunday, in the longest Wimbledon final ever (in terms of number of games), Roger Federer took home his sixth Wimbledon Cup, beating Andy Roddick 5-7, 7-6, 7-6, 3-6, 16-14. And what was he doing both before and after the epic battle? Posting videos to his Facebook Page, apparently.

Federer’s page now has around 2.6 million fans, with a huge spike taking place (not surprisingly) on the day of the final. According to PageData, Federer gained about 55,000 fans on that day.

Both before and after the final, Federer connected with his fans by sharing pre– and post-final messages on his Wall.
