Isn't the story that he had to choose between tennis or skiing, and chose the racquet?
I have seen clips of him skiing. Super smooth. Don't know if he is the best, but he is damn good.
He was a junior champion skier, right? So probably better than any other tennis player who was never that good as a kid. I doubt any player has become a better skier as an adult. :) they better not be practicing.

Novak might be good since his parents had the restaurant on a ski mountain.

Jannik was born in a ski resort and was among the best skiers in Italy in 8-12 age group before concentrating on tennis full time. That's why it's a good guess he's better at it than others. As we saw in the clip Roger is not bad either, but he was never into competitive ski racing.

The curls are worth millions. With that mopey look, Kristen Stewart could play him in a biopic. Interesting that Vanity Fair allowed two Gucci logos on the cover. I wonder if it's just for digital and won't be on the print cover.
