Top of the pile is the 19-time Grand Slam champion, who has been the most searched Swiss personality in his country in 2017.

That follows a dream year in which he has won two Grand Slams - the Australian Open and Wimbledon - while mounting a challenge for the world No 1 spot with Rafael Nadal

Second is academic Tariq Ramadan while third is one of Federer's friends - at least off-court - in Stan Wawrinka.

Behind Wawrinka comes Roger's wife Mirka, a former tennis player herself. The pair met at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney with Mirka enjoyed a career high ranking a year later, when she got to the world No 76 spot.

However, she retired in 2002 due to a persistent foot injury but she has travelled the world with Roger since supporting him.
