South Africa claimed a powerful victory – their second World Cup in a row – at the Stade de France in Saint-Denis, near Paris, on Saturday.
The Springboks defeated the All Blacks by a point in the final, even though both sides lost their captains during the match, with Sam Cane seeing red.
In the flawed but compelling final, South Africa remarkably became the first country to be crowned champions four times.
Federer made headlines in June when he proved he was no match for the Princess of Wales when they met on a tennis court in Wimbledon.
The pair played a doubles match on No3 Court – where Federer won his first match on his way to his first Wimbledon title 20 years ago – to highlight the work of ball boys and girls during the tournament.
Kate managed to blast past the Swiss star, prompting him to exclaim: ‘I think it was on the line. Astonishing!’
The princess also took the opportunity to get some sneaky coaching advice from the former world number 1.
“Any tip about my service would be very helpful,” she said. But Federer just responded with a compliment, saying, “The serve looks good.”
