In an interview with Basel Live, when Federer was asked if he ever travelled on a tram without buying a ticket, he replied: “I had the GA [Switzerland travelcard] for many years and therefore rarely had to buy a ticket. Basically, I’m not a fan of it, not even in tennis. Fairness and correct behaviour are extremely important to me in life. But of course, it certainly happened to me that I got on for a short distance without a ticket. I have the feeling that I have very rarely driven black. I was never caught doing so.”
