Roger Federer plays Lindsey Vonn

Roger Federer's drawing to challenge skier Lindsey Vonn to a mystery mountain competition
Swiss tennis star Roger Federer has challenged US skier Lindsey Vonn to a mystery competition involving a mountain.
The pair are apparently genuine friends, regularly attending each other’s competitions to offer moral support — but have now become involved in a chocolate marketing campaign.
Roger Federer is brand ambassador for LINDT chocolate, and last week, following his defeat at Wimbledon, the tennis player was filmed having a Skype competition with Lindsey Vonn.
He asks her to join him for a challenge — which will today be played out on a mountain in Switzerland. Given that Roger is this afternoon opening LINDT Swiss Chocolate Heaven, the highest chocolate-experience shop in Europe, on the Jungfraujoch, 3,454 meters above sea level, we can only assume all will be revealed today.
Downhill skiing, perhaps, or maybe glacial tennis. Follow the action on twitter using hashtag #ChocolateHeaven or to see the very staged Skype call between Roger and Lindsey, visit chocolateheaven.lindt.com.
