Izyan Ahmad, also known as "Zizou", is a huge fan of Roger Federer. And Zizou was actually at the U.S. Open press conference in 2017 when he asked the tennis star a question.

"Can you please continue to play for eight, nine years so that I can play you when I go pro?" Zizou asked Roger. 

"Yes," Roger replied, laughing. To which Zizou said, “Is that a promise?”

"Pinky promise," Roger Federer said with a big smile on his face.
