Which tennis champion co-chaired the 2023 Met Gala?

The story behind the answer

Roger Federer co-chaired the 2023 Met Gala.

Federer shared the 2023 hosting duties with Anna Wintour, Dua Lipa, Penélope Cruz, and Michaela Coel. His selection connected the event with Karl Lagerfeld, whose career was being celebrated by that year’s exhibition, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty.”

Federer is one of tennis’s most decorated players. He won 20 men’s Grand Slam singles titles and spent 310 weeks ranked world number one, including a record 237 consecutive weeks during one period.

The gala’s co-chairs are often drawn from fashion, music, film, sport, and other cultural fields. Federer’s role therefore reflected the event’s broad celebrity and cultural reach rather than a career as a fashion designer.
