Maximum RESPECT to Roger for toughing it out and coming out on top, after months of recovering from injury. On clay. In the third round. At almost 40. Stay healthy Maestro Federer!
Doubtful. The last time Federer played the player he’ll face in the next round, he absolutely destroyed him, so I don’t think he’s too concerned. I think he just wants to be ready for grass knowing he’s very unlikely to beat Djokovic and Nadal in succession at RG. Waste of time.
He will possibly withdraw from the next Match he said he considering with his team to not risk anything for Grass season which starts in Halle for him in just a week from now. So he may not play round 4 after all.
Roger's level is absolutely outrageous for an almost 40 year old tennis player who has only played 3 matches coming into a grand slam. This is why he'll always be the greatest.
@@pyrofreak0407 i think you need some tennis lesson. I am fluent in english. Problem is that fetards are writing for 3 years now that Fed is almost 40. Even in Wimbledon 2019 fetards were writing that he is almost 40 but he was 37. Djokovic is 34 and is winning more then Fed in his late 20s
Federer wasn't joking when he said in his last press conference that the clay is playing fast this year. I totally thought at 1st glance that this video was at 1.5 speed... It's crazy how agile Federer is at his age. He's Literally A G.O.A.T!! 🤟😳
Can we just appreciate that Federer is 40 whether he win or loses, he's a champ for being able to tough it out against young opponents... its no easy feat.
I'm telling you, nobody ever would've been able to win that match after knee injuries, almost 40 years old and almost not playing for over a year, JUST ROGER FEDERER
@@milanvesovic1703 You do realize he had mono in 08, right? Mono made Ancic retire from tennis altogether and Fed still won USO in 08 and contested the greatest final ever at Wimbledon lol. And tell me please who is Novak beating now in finals? Ruud? Tsitsipas? Medvedev? Roger at 38/9 was destroying these guys left and right lol, it's a joke.
Rubbish highlights. Missed completely the decisive point of the match where Roger returns two powerful volleys and wins the point and breaks the opponent. FO editor sucks!
This Koepfer guy is very solid. Can see him cracking the top 40. He played Djokovic tight last year too on Clay. I am just happy Roger is competing, I think we can all agree that Rafa is still the heavy favorite so let's just enjoy Roger.
@@teragramlawrence2864No guy who has reached the third round of any Grand Slam is "shit." Koepfer was playing at a higher level that day than you could even comprehend is possible. It just so happens that Roger Federer at 40 is able to defeat such a player because he is one of the greatest to ever play.
Federer still looking pretty good. Gives me goosebumps when we get sparks of the true goat coming back. Wimbledon this year could be his push for another slam!
Well it was a tight match. Roger did well, but he desperately needs to reduce number of UE from his backhand wing. But still solid performance Edit: needless to say that i hope he does not withdraw
Well it wasn’t THAT tight, as the scores suggest. It was not dramatic or anything. I think if the match was played during daytime it would look more favorable for Federer. A lot of unforced errors from Federers part and he was clearly not in the mood to play. I am just glad he is through though.
1. It was a dramatic match, tight sets all of them. Federer couldn't hold the service breaks whenever he broke he gave it back next game. 2. Errors were more from FH and backhand slices. Topspin BH was lethal although he framed 5-10 times which he anyway does.
This should have been the finals! As a rule, they should say, anyone 39 or over, if he wins three matches, he's won RG final! As far as I'm concerned, Roger already won his 2RG, it might not go down on paper, but the guy is literally playing on one leg and is still beating players 12+ years younger! So he's won his 2nd RG for me, I don't care if Novak or Rafa win this, they never could do this, at 39!
He should’ve retired at matchpoint during this match so he could’ve let him advance and go farther and make some money but he had to win and then retire which is kinda a stupid decision
This was the last match of Roger I saw on live tv. I saw him in the flesh once, in my home tournament the Brisbane international. He is such a presence, for me, the beauty of his game is the greatest there has ever been. Much admiration from one of your many fans. You're the the greatest!
Recovering from an injury takes time. Its important to find the proper balance between pushing yourself but recognizing when you should stop or limit yourself. Go too little and you never recover or the recovery time is unnecessarily drawn out as it would take the body longer to get used to moving again. Go too hard and you risk another injury or complication. Roger was understandably not at his best physically given what had happened in the 16 months leading up to this match. He was not chasing balls down that you would expect him to chase down in his sleep. The match went over 3h30 which Roger admitted he did not prepare or plan for. Commentator even said he noticed Roger coughing at times. Yet he somehow toughed it out and got the win. All 4 sets were 7-6 or 7-5. Yes he had to withdraw the following day but the fact that he came out on top of this match given the circumstances is just a true testament to his will to win and his love for the game. Really miss seeing Roger play. What a career. Description score is wrong. Thats the score of Rogers win over Cilic in R2, not Koepfer in R3. Koepfer's name in the title and description is mispelled too.
And its almost a crime that Rogers final ever FO match had no crowd. Would have been going INSANE and really would have got a loud roar at Roger coming through this one. Roger said he thought about everyone watching tennis on TV on a Saturday.
Grandissimo Roger non hai eguali sei il n.1 di tutti . Professionisti che dopo anni di partite non riescono ancora a fare il rovescio con un solo braccio e sono il n.1 del mondo mi fanno solo che ridere.Grande Maestro!!!!
If you are reading this, Federer just announced that he is withdrawing from the French Open, stating how he is just listening to his body. I believe Federer played the tournament because he knows he is reaching that age and wants to play it a couple of times before hanging up the racket🥺.
😁 He was referring to the ball that was going to be out. Federer was moving pretty clumsy yesterday. Obviously, he is not in tournament shape yet after his comeback. Wonder whether it will get better. We’ll see against Berettini who is a strong opponent. But I guess it won’t be enough and perhaps, not even enough to come far in Wimbledon…
@@jones3495 he got 2 violation, ball abuse, and spitting on court to clean ball print that he argued its in. Was called out. And just overall salty attitude on court as well.
@@pauljohnson6019 understandable tho. He worked so hard and here he is with a chance to beat one of the greatest players ever who can barely move, only to not be able to move Fed around enough. All he needed to do is make Fed run and make points longer. But Roger didnt allow it and was constantly on the attack, from all positions, and disrupting Koepfers rhythm with very accurate drop shots and often coming to the net. It is quite remarkable that Roger can win on this level with this kind of movement and fatigue. All props to Roger he playrd it prrfectly altough after the second set Koepfer couldve ran away with it, amd he knows it, hence why such frustration
I would feel very frustrated if I were Köpfer. Federer just denied him the chance to advance in Roland Garros in a close match, to then withdraw from the tournament 12 hours later, to protect his health. Roland Garros should give the kid the chance to play in the next round
They should let the looser play when that happens it pwouod bring more drama. Imagine a looser coming back to win the tournament! They use those tactics for entertainment in talent shows. It would be better for the game!
On one hand, it's not the way to get out of a GS, but if köpfer can't beat a soon-to-be 40 year old federer on clay, then he doesn't deserve to play the next round. full stop.
everybody’s talking about unforced errors and the tough german guy. but do you remember that Roger hasn’t been playing for 1,5 year, he was injured and he is almost 40? he didn’t play bad, he played just raw! it’s his third game. Koepher won a lot of points because Roger made mistakes, but why he shouldn’t make them at this hardest moment of his career? his famous backhand wasn’t so accurate and he couldn’t run all the time, but he managed to fight every single game in every single set, didn’t freak out and won - first of all, mentally. Did you hear the german guy screaming, spitting and breathing hard? he was solid, but he was far away from Roger’s level, even when Roger is after the surgery.

The scheduling here is a joke. I dont understand why they are having late matches this year either. Its completely unnecessary and why no fans? This could have been Federer's last match here at RG if he had lost.
It was bas condition for Roger, it was colder and the clay was slower not like during daytime its much faster when it's warmer and u could see that he is 40 and don't want to play match that starts in 21h he played till 1 am.. Probably sleeps in that time usually.
I'm sure the video wasn't uploaded 9 hours ago, was it? BTW a tough win for Federer, hope he recovers quickly coz next opponent is more dangerous... Good luck Roger...
RF not closing out points fast enough, letting his adversary stay in the point. Still, shows he can stay the course for more than 3 hours in a night match in front of zero spectators. Here's hoping we get to see him in another round.
Even if it is basically one of the most ardous showdowns for living legend, he smoothly vanquished his German adversary in 4 sets without hesitating, definitely maintaining his determination in the options about what he will do in the flow of the rallies every time. Good luck in the 4th round ROGER!!!
Federer not sure if you are going to read this comment, but everyone is trying to play to your backhand which they feel is your Achilles' heel. I noticed this with cilic and in the next round with this random unknown, but be aggressive with your backhand like 2017 Australian open. Be smart but don't go for too many slices. I hate unknown players targeting your backhand as the only way to beat you. Today is my birthday and i am 45 years old, but i am going to accept that someone else is going to beat your GS record. Do your best, enjoy the game as you do, but don't let anyone beat you on your exquisite backhand. Love you always. No one else can do what you do at your age. Show them how to play tennis. Believe in yourself no matter what, as i wish to watch you play and win many more GS.
It’s the right move. He was totally tanked after the first set yesterday plus he was coughing constantly. And there is no point playing on at the French Open as he has no chance to win. He accomplished what he had set out to do, win a couple of 3 out of 5 set matches, assess his level, gather info/intel and move on to the grass where his real season begins.
Yeah but he seems to forget that what if he didn’t win Wimbledon as well. It would be all put to waste altogether. Roger should’ve kept playing honestly...
Isn't it better to give a chance to a dude that played a match and made an effort (Koepfer) than a dude that didn't play a match and made no effort (Berrettini), which would have also given us the opportunity to watch the next match instead of "no" next match? That is what Federer did here by pulling out of the event. We don't have 1 Quarterfinal. By the way, it was not a complaint, just some folks are trying to be logical.
@@anocri Actually, this might work in his favour, Novak just had a 5 setter, although the last 3 sets were easy, Berretini is a much stronger, and more experienced opponent, than Musetti, this extra day, should propel him, to be fresher, and wear Novak down, I'm expecting a tough 4 or 5 setter win, it will all be worth it, if Berretini can actually make the finals, and win, then you'll all, be praising Roger to the hilt, so calm down.
Wouldn't really call it boring, just not exciting, as Wimbledon! Anyway, this better pay off, wishing Berretini, all the best of luck, to take Novak out, later this night.
@@pauljohnson6019 For me, just boring. What I have been seeing over the last 15 years is, the other 3 Grand Slams have altered condition of their courts and balls, be it faster or slower, be it higher or lower bounce of ball, they have tried to accommodate different playing styles, attacking or defensive. On the other hand, RG seems to be sticking to the same condition year in year out giving advantage to defensive-style players, hence 1 guy was able to monopolize for the past 13 editions. My observation may be wrong.
Yeah...complete caveman. One of the worst matches I ever watched but I stayed to the end just to see that moron lose. Spitting on the opponents side of the court is on a whole new level.

Even if it is basically one of the most ardous showdowns for living legend, he smoothly vanquished his German adversary in 4 sets without hesitating, definitely maintaining his determination in the options about what he will do in the flow of the rallies every time. Good luck in the 4th round ROGER!!!
This match was everything but smooth lol. Fed kept giving breaks away
Was so bummed when he withdrew after this match.
Well done Roger.The G O A T💎
At slmost 40 y.o. on clay at RG to reach 4th round is amazing
Roger is just so good
This is a far more impressive performance by Federer than he will ever get credit for
Federer's last match at Roland Garros...and without spectators...so sad
Just to think there was only 1 (one) point between them in this match: 151 to 150!
Yet it was a four setter. And at the end of the third koepfer had three more points despite being down two sets to one.
@@commondirtbagz7130 Federer pulled a Djokovic on Köpfer.
Thank you Ferderer! I learned many things from him.
1:05 god bend that shot
yes i noticed this shot it is so beautiful how it spined in the last second to get inside the court 😂
He won this match and thought "oh shit I've gone too far" 😂😂
Federer not sure if you are going to read this comment, but everyone is trying to play to your backhand which they feel is your Achilles' heel. I noticed this with cilic and in the next round with this random unknown, but be aggressive with your backhand like 2017 Australian open. Be smart but don't go for too many slices. I hate unknown players targeting your backhand as the only way to beat you. Today is my birthday and i am 45 years old, but i am going to accept that someone else is going to beat your GS record. Do your best, enjoy the game as you do, but don't let anyone beat you on your exquisite backhand. Love you always. No one else can do what you do at your age. Show them how to play tennis. Believe in yourself no matter what, as i wish to watch you play and win many more GS.
Everything Federer does from now on is bonus.
So much class and finesse
To think that this guy won his first slam in 2003! Despite being a shadow of what he was in his prime, he can still give any competitor trouble
Grandslam in sunday league atmosphere...love it.
an impressive and beautiful match.
Siempre será el elegante campeón.

He said: "he still flies..."

I am so full of Joy for this Win! Keep Winning Federer! You will surely Win a Grand Slam this Year 2021 in Jesus Name Amen!!!

Dude withdrew from French Open - good for him, excited about Wimbledon.
It’s the right move. He was totally tanked after the first set yesterday plus he was coughing constantly. And there is no point playing on at the French Open as he has no chance to win. He accomplished what he had set out to do, win a couple of 3 out of 5 set matches, assess his level, gather info/intel and move on to the grass where his real season begins.
Yeah but he seems to forget that what if he didn’t win Wimbledon as well. It would be all put to waste altogether. Roger should’ve kept playing honestly...
Stay good Roger. We love you.
0:41 incredible run & slide given he had to nurse his knees, legend
People are complaining about Roger for denying this dude a chance after he withdrew. Dude lost proper. Why should he have a chance?
Isn't it better to give a chance to a dude that played a match and made an effort (Koepfer) than a dude that didn't play a match and made no effort (Berrettini), which would have also given us the opportunity to watch the next match instead of "no" next match? That is what Federer did here by pulling out of the event. We don't have 1 Quarterfinal. By the way, it was not a complaint, just some folks are trying to be logical.
@@anocri Actually, this might work in his favour, Novak just had a 5 setter, although the last 3 sets were easy, Berretini is a much stronger, and more experienced opponent, than Musetti, this extra day, should propel him, to be fresher, and wear Novak down, I'm expecting a tough 4 or 5 setter win, it will all be worth it, if Berretini can actually make the finals, and win, then you'll all, be praising Roger to the hilt, so calm down.
@@pauljohnson6019 I'll be waiting for Berrettini's final winning performance then. Next year.
I fully support Roger’s decision. Timely and smart. Really no point risking continue playing in #themostboringGrandSlam
Wouldn't really call it boring, just not exciting, as Wimbledon! Anyway, this better pay off, wishing Berretini, all the best of luck, to take Novak out, later this night.
@@pauljohnson6019 For me, just boring. What I have been seeing over the last 15 years is, the other 3 Grand Slams have altered condition of their courts and balls, be it faster or slower, be it higher or lower bounce of ball, they have tried to accommodate different playing styles, attacking or defensive. On the other hand, RG seems to be sticking to the same condition year in year out giving advantage to defensive-style players, hence 1 guy was able to monopolize for the past 13 editions. My observation may be wrong.
For Federer , age is just a number 🥰
can someone explain to me why this match WASN'T aired on TV in the U.S. ?
Koepfer is a nastier version of Millman. If you saw the match you know...
Yeah...complete caveman. One of the worst matches I ever watched but I stayed to the end just to see that moron lose. Spitting on the opponents side of the court is on a whole new level.
@@xngr true bro 👍
Please show us the handshakes in all of the highlight videos. Thank you! :-)
Es una pena que Roger haya jugado su último partido en RG sin publico en las gradas
2:37 to 2:39 let's appreciate the boy's catch
Great match. Roger is doing great.
Played better on clay than grass this year by far,
Amazing...!
Wow. He can still grind at almost 40. Such a wonder, our man.
