Federer, 42, was on site at the All England Club last week, after his wife was spotted in the stands without the eight-time champion.

But with rain plaguing the last few days, the Swiss superstar found a Blank Space in his busy diary and decided to Shake It Off by heading back to his homeland – and met up with Swift at her gig in Zurich.

Tuesday night’s leg of the epic Eras Tour saw the pop star, 34, take to the stage at the Letzigrund stadium, just over an hour’s drive from Fed’s hometown of Basel.

Federer – who fittingly competed in 22 Wimbledons – shared a snap of his five friendship bracelets on his Instagram story alongside his Rolex watch on his left wrist.

And the tennis great sent sports and music fans alike into a frenzy with his post to his 12.5million followers.

Dapper Federer uploaded the smiling selfie with a beaming Taylor – who appeared to have just come off stage in her sparkling blue dress and iconic red lipstick.

He captioned it: “In my Swiftie era 🦋🫶💜🧣🌃🐍💘🪩🌲🕰️🤍”

Federer was decked out in a casual shirt and had his VIP lanyard around his neck.

It is not the first time Fed has enjoyed a huge high-profile concert since retiring from tennis.

He wowed his supporters with his singing voice at a Coldplay gig.

Federer was invited on stage – again in Zurich – to perform Don’t Panic with the massive British rock band, and his performance went down a storm on social media.

In 2022, the 20-time Grand Slam champion hung up his racquet in heartbreaking scenes that saw his wife Mirka sobbing during the Amazon Prime Video documentary that followed his last days on the court.

Without her spouse, Mirka surprised everyone last week by going to Wimbledon with the kids to watch the match between Italians Jannik Sinner and Matteo Berrettini.
