Need Directions? Roger Federer Is Here To Help, Via Waze Driving App

Roger Federer, the 20-time major winner and former tennis champion, is set to lend his voice to the popular driving app Waze, assisting commuters in navigating the roads. The multilingual Swiss star will provide directions in English, French, and German, making him the first individual to record custom navigation in three different languages, according to an announcement by the navigation app on Wednesday.

In addition to offering basic directions, Federer will also deliver motivational messages to drivers.
