Roger Federer participated in the friendship bracelet trading tradition 

Swifties have this tradition of swapping friendship bracelets with each other at the concert made of beads, using a variety of colors which also include meaningful words and catchphrases. Federer, who mastered every court he played on, also took part in the worldwide tradition.
