In 2017, Izyan Ahmad, known to most as "Zizou", challenged Federer to a match during the U.S. Open press conference.
"Can you please continue to play for eight, nine years so that I can play you when I go pro?" Zizou asked Federer.
"Yes," Federer replied, laughing.
"Is that a promise?" Zizou followed up.
"Pinky promise," Federer said with a smile.
Last week, Roger Federer fulfilled that promise.
