Roger Federer serves an ace at villupuram


UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and the world's number one tennis player Roger Federer started his three-day visit to Tsunami-hit areas of Tamil Nadu on Friday. Federer, who is to take stock of the activities undertaken by the UNICEF, spent about two hours at a village in Cuddalore district. He went to an ICDS anganwadi centre and also visited a creche for Tsunami-hit children.The tennis player went to a school and saw how children were learning through interactive methods.

Federer also visited the Integrated Child Development Scheme Centre at Thazhanguda village and sat through a puppetry show by children on HIV awareness.
Federer's visit was, however, marked by drama outside the orphanage as UNICEF representatives were mobbed by reporters who were denied access to cover the champion's visit. Federer was whisked away by security personnel and left for Villupuram to know about the tsunami recovery programme there.
Federer was appointed UNICEF's goodwill ambassador in 2006 and has, since then, helped in several fund-raising initiatives.
