No one in the history of sport made tennis look so easy and pleasing to the eye. He made tennis look so watchable with his aggressive style. We miss you Roger
Shows how good Federer was in 2019. Injury-free and the movement was so exceptional especially when he runs around to his forehand side. Unfortunately he could not sustain it for another year and the pandemic hit. Federer's last titles and finals were also his firsts upon going to the top 20 years ago. Basel, Dubai, Miami, Wimbledon.
He might still be playing now if he had competent knee surgeons. Unfortunately, he relied on the doctors in his own country while there were better doctors elsewhere. He had multiple surgeries all on the same condition. Got a second opinion in the UK after he retired. Too late.
@@twinwankelsilly comment. Federer had his first meniscus surgery in 2016 when they opted to trim the meniscus. That was the best treatment available at the time and after that he was on borrowed time. If you continue at the same intensity with a trimmed meniscus the issue will come back. Technology and medicine has advanced a lot in the past 8 years. However Switzerland was, and remains, the world leader in orthopaedic surgery.
@@scottwarren4998I used to think the same way, but the truth is that having a variety of surfaces makes the game more varied and interesting and the results less predictable, and makes the players have to adapt instead of always employing the same strategies. If we were going to have something like standardized playing conditions for long stretches, I would say they need to be low bouncing enough to incentivize players to attack and go to net, but without having the serve become too dominant.
And the 6 years is pretty much the age difference between Fed and Djok & Nadal, which means he's always at the back foot when competing against them as they prime. But I guess it's always too hard for Djok fans to understand
Roger inoubliable, empreinte indélébile dans l'histoire du tennis masculin,c'est le tennis à lui tout seul - côté femmes, un seul nom me vient Navratilova
His winning 100 titles at age 37 was not any making of history at all. Connors won 100 titles by age 31, and still holds the record at 109 titles. And Connors started later than Federer and didn't have a coach. So he won his titles about 50% faster than Federer, which is just incredible. How soon people forget.
Super slow court and different bounce. low and fast suits Federers style of swing. Slow and high bounce suits nadal and Novak can play on any at a high level.
Roger Federer could have played better - of course - but there is no other player in history that second after second you feel embarassed by the portent of a specific shot that you leaves you feeling stupid with a superlative. it has happened so many times you want to say " yeah ..., there is another " Roger " ... When comparing his serve, backhand, volley etc etc - it is hard to say any player in history is better at one of his strokes. Why ? because he surpasses them in precision and consistency. he was the first player to consistently hit the LINES in his shots. later it seemed he was shooting for the outer-half of the lines. it really would be horrible to compare him to any other player . just leave him in his own space.
Novak break all the records!!!😅 Just win Olympic gold at 37! Most Us open wins…. Novak Goat 🐐 = Tennis 🎾 Only man to complete game of tennis 🎾 Winning everything, All 4GS, All Masters, Atp final and gold medal!!! The Greatest qty of this millennium!!! Sorry Fed,15:40😂❤
Statiatics is reductive. Federer started to play before the other two guys and for me this is an advantage for Djokovic and ,Nadal because they had the opportunity to study the game of King Roger
Not all Masters. No Hamburg despite it was there since 2003-2008. Also "Olympics" was just best of 3 set RG with many of the top players not playing. Novak also did not break all records. Examples: no calendar slam, not most RGs, USO, or Wimbledons.
Roger feder produced so much elegance on the court. That will be forever be remembered

How I missed him on court.
Wish him good health. Successful in his new role, and a happiness.

2019 is an emotional year, tennis after it is not like before
Not just tennis, the whole world…
The MJ of tennis. The true GOAT
Only Cincinnati and Shanghai courts are fast like it.
Yep. And sure enough, those are the the most exciting hard court tournaments to watch
And why not always have a court that is neither fast nor slow? that would be fair for all players.

Atp finals are much faster lol
what about atp finals?
He is still sorely missed!
6:58 Oh my God, we are in the presence of greatness 😇
Truely amazing at 38.4 qualified for tour final yet we've just witnessed what 38.2 Nadal looked like in Olympics
One of the greatest I think some players like Borg Jimmy Connors MacEnroe are milestones in tennis, Federer is one of them
How much I miss him 😢
It took him 6 years from 2001-2007 to get to 50 titles and 12 years to get to another 50 titles😢
True meaning of 'prime'
Because after 2012 he was injured and played less events and was not the same calibre of his primeself.

Weak era vs strong era
Its the only player where you can say "its magnificient"

We will not see Fedex type of player anymore 😢😮😢

8:50 what a talent!
I wonder what Verdasco said to him at the net
tsisipas's lesson, never go to the net when you play roger
Exactly LOL
What a time this was 😌
Only Federer can do 13:51
Djokovic did it to federer at 40-15 in 2019 Wimbledon 😂
@@IndineraFallz He wasn't referring to that shot.
That running half volley backhand reminds me when he played Roddick at AO 2007 if im not mistaken
only federer plays like a 20 year old
Tsitsipas backhand was so much better in 2019.
You'd have hoped he'd improve it in 4 years but it's just a lot worse now in 2024.

Always the 3rd.
That's good too

Don't be stupid. In that time WAS LOT MORE EASY TO WIN n Connors in his last years just played local or 250 tournements with low standard players...
