In this viral clip, a young boy got a chance to play with Roger Federer—and win a point against him—during the BNP Paribas Showdown, an exhibition game between the Swiss player and Grigor Dmitrov of Bulgaria at Madison Square Garden Tuesday night. The kid was able to keep up a rally with Federer, who has been ranked No. 1 in the world, and he won the point by lobbing the ball while the star was at the net—prompting loud cheers from the fans in the stands.
