Federer is so important to Switzerland. There, there aren't lots of widely recognised athletes, so he could take the swiss country to the whole world.

I chose Roger because, apart from being good at tennis, he has civic values that we should all learn from. His behaviour playing tennis and the contributions to foundations has made him very cherished by the public.
