Swiss Tennis icon Roger Federer, who played in South Africa for the first time on Friday against his long-time friend and tennis rival Rafael Nadal, took time after their exhibition match to play with children from a poverty-stricken township near Cape Town. This is part of the Roger Federer Foundation's School Readiness Interventions, for thousands of children in Sub Saharan Africa. The program enables children to learn through play. CGTN's Rene Del Carme reports.
