It was a dream come true for a fan at Wimbledon, who asked Roger Federer for his headband. The Swiss superstar handed it over to Mihika Joshi after she held up a sign politely asking for it.

After Federer's Centre Court victory over Dusan Lajovic, the dedicated supporter battled her way to the front row and waved a bright yellow placard that read: 'Roger can I have your headband pleeease!!'

The Daily Mail reported that the crowd cheered as the tennis ace took it out from his kitbag and gave it to the girl.

Mihika, who is of Indian-origin looked delighted with her souvenir and she skipped off grinning from ear-to-ear clutching his headband.

Her father said: “I don't think she'll sleep tonight!”
