Clinton had recently come under fire for 'checking out' singer Ariana Grande during her performance at the memorial service for the late soul singer Aretha Franklin.

However, the former president seemed unfazed by those criticisms as he seemed to be deeply engrossed in the match that cut short Federer's stay in last major of the year.
