Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal read the poem "Sport and Thought" by Rainer Maria Rilke during the introduction of the 2021 BBC Sports Personality of the Year award show. The poem reflects on the relationship between sports and the mind, highlighting the mental aspect of athletic competition.
Roger Federer's racquet has 24 - 28 kg (50-60 lbs) recommended tension, depending on his opponent, court conditions, weather, altitude, humidity, etc.
For matches, he (as well as other players) will have several racquets in his bag with varied tensions. Like racquet choice, string tension is a very personal decision.
He has mentioned how on hard courts and grass courts (although opponents can cause this to vary), he prefers his string tension to be higher, which offers more control (grass and hard courts are the fastest courts).
English newspapers "The Sun" and "The Daily Telegraph" have outlined some habits that could be seen as rituals, involving his water bottles, headband, and socks.
Hi won his first grand slam in the 2003 Wimbledon championships =D.

His career prize money is approximately $55 million USD. Coupled with endorsements, etc, it's a reasonable estimate that his worth is in the $100-175 million dollar range, quite possibly more.
