@@premiumgucci5777 lol you're really one of those people who talks out the side of their neck and ends up looking like such a fool 😂 I don't mind tho it's entertaining
This warms my heart…His game is and was so elegant he might as well have been playing in a tux all those years as Rafa put it he made a lot of hard shots look very easy..a maestro indeed!
Gotta say, as someone that played Tennis for about 5 years in school, playing ping pong felt super natural. Could never compete with proper players but the control that you get over your shots after playing tennis def made me better than the average hobbyist lol
I dunno if it does :/ Its like tennis -> badminton, the lack of wrist action from tennis then going to wrist dominant sports like badminton and table tennis screwed me up Yeah, things translate but me doing a long stance in taekwondo is not the same sort of long stance in karate Theres still adjustments that gotta be made.

@@djdoc06 I don't expect any level from him because he is a tennis player. I was merely responding to the original comment that implies he has successfully adapted his tennis technique for this game, because he has not. Table tennis techniques are totally different, so his technique is terrible. Of course, he has fantastic hand-eye coordination and with a few hours of coaching he would become a very handy TT player. I've often thought it would be fun for a player like Roger to seriously have a go at TT when they retire - it would make a great TV series.
@@Wally-H agreed. The thing is .. with these bats and rubbers they are playing more like tennis on a table .. as opposed to table tennis with proper rubbers. I had that problem for years.. years of practice practicing with bad equipment so never learnt the proper game with spin.
@@patinho5589 Yes there is something in that, Roger is such a talent he'd be brilliant at the game with some coaching but people who watch this and think it's good are very naive. He doesn't know how to play the game and this is evident from the few vids out there showing him playing TT.
As a former professional table tennis player, you already have the mechanics for any sport racket based, regular tennis was a breeze for me and in just 4 weeks of basic training I was better than 90% of non-professional people playing tennis their whole lives, same with badminton people didn't believe on my very first day I was smoking most of them already.
I'm a table tennis player, That last backhand was actually textbook for someone wearing a tux. Great power transfer from the legs to the waist and a great hip rotation. No movement on the elbow and a clean strike with his forearm leading the racket!
Wtf 22 vs 24??? first 5 years of career had no rival, after that f...d up by rafa and novak... played till 40 and embaresed... forcing some elitism with swiss watches advert... he is a JOKE
I had a friend in college that was a top tennis player in the country. He had the same exact swing on the table. There is definitely a different swing for a champion tennis player and a champion table tennis player. Both are great on the table (and fun to watch) but there is definitely a difference in ability between the styles.
Many people underestimate the power of learning table tennis - it is a very good way to play with different spins of balls and how to use wrist and fingers for subtle changes too ❤
@@thelegacy1083I would love to be called 40-15 disparagingly if only I could get more than 100 titles, 20 GS, 12 Wimbledon finals and yes a billionaire ststus
if u even play tennis at around 3 to 3.5 level, you know why Roger is talented af (His net play, his fast flicking shot...) He's so good at eye-hand coordination. I know this is not high level table tennis as this is just ppl having fun but damn he is fast. I'm sure Pickleball organization would have to pay a massive amount of $ to see Roger play on their tournament cuz he was just made for any hand-eye coordination sport.
The most incredible part of this that everyone seems to have missed is the most casual catch of the ball hit long by Rogers opponent. Guy didn't even move, just flicked it up, caught it and kept going
Imagine walking into some high class black suit establishment and just seeing roger Federer playing ping pong in the corner
Ping pong 🤣🤣🤣
It is called "table tennis"...

Federer is the epitome of a gentleman. I’m not a big tennis fan but I respect this guy more than any other athlete.
Rogers control is unreal hes not even looking at the ball half the time he has insane coordination even outside of tennis
the last backhand shot was fast af lol.
Actually not anything out of the ordinary that an amateur table tennis player couldn’t do.

He's such an awesome guy, the world needs more people like Roger
Yes👏👏👏👏
bro even his ping pong game is gorgeous
I think gorgeous is over-stating it. He wouldn't beat most local league players with that technique.
Bruh wdym I am better at table tennis
Untrue
Nope, its not, you can see he is a tennis player
@Jade Hammond he understands ball mechanics better than anyone so he would be really good even if his technique is slow
Federer has got the GOAT grunt let's go
Mind you, table tennis is very difficult, and requires a very different skill set from lawn tennis. Roger rocks it here
My man plays tennis while playing table tennis 😂 great fun to watch😂

He retired ?
That backhand strike was deadly
He’s a BEAST! As a junior tennis player, we always played ping pong on rainy days to help with the tennis stroke.
His back hand is very good even in table tennis... Legend 🙏🥰
Not at all actually
With a backhand like that, you definitely don't want to cook his meal wrong if you're his lover.
@@Uncle_Troy😭😭😭
Personally seeing this man play tennis is like watching a great craftsman at work
Everything is temporary but the backhand shot is permanent 💚💚💚
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
40:15 is permanent
40-15, what?
Oh yeah, that’s right, that’s also permanent 🤣
Amazing 😂
Como eu gostaria q vc volta se a jogar pq o tennis não tem nem sentido mais sem vc em court ❤❤❤

Agree, I play both at amateur level. Does translate.
I dunno if it does :/
Its like tennis -> badminton, the lack of wrist action from tennis then going to wrist dominant sports like badminton and table tennis screwed me up
Yeah, things translate but me doing a long stance in taekwondo is not the same sort of long stance in karate
Theres still adjustments that gotta be made.

In table tennis he will lose in match points and crucial points actually
Novak Djokovic will beat Federer in Ping pong game also

He has a great record. But he is such a classy sportsman kind of guy
As aggressive as ever 😄

His form even when playing around is a masterpiece.
Roger makes everything so effortless!!
I don’t even watch tennis like that but the way his focus and hand/eye coordination translates is unbelievable.

WWW BRO WHATS ur ITTF rating?
Federer is just a natural at sports... He was born to be an athlete not just tennis.. Look at him go even at table tennis... Legendary man!
Pirlo & Federer have always had the coolest dress sense amongst sportsmen, their style was always immaculate asf
oh that backhand ♥️ gonna miss you forever!!
He’s getting ready to play pickle ball at some point and rule that world, this is a warm up for the different sound of the ball 😂
Roger would rule at Pickleball. I would love to see all the retired tennis pros make the switch.
This. We need some former tennis pros to dominate pickleball to get people playing tennis again. 😂
@@joecaldwell9881 There are some videos of Sock and Isner playing pickle ball tournaments. They're freaking hilarious. Both are really good.

Tennis is a top 5 global sport. No tennis pro is playing pickleball, least of all a GOAT.
I think he's playing Diego Schwartzman.
Once again.....Federer and backhand ❤
One of the main reasons the one handed backhand is still alive is Roger ❤❤❤❤
His back headed shot is alway 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Federer has that rich man laugh
In parallel universe he is bossing the asians in TT in every tournament including Olympics
American hegemony universe?
@@resananaHe ain't American 🤦
Greatest tennis player of all time. Classy. Competitive. Gentleman. Great sportsman. Loves the game. Miss you Roger

No matter the size of the field, that backhand is still legendary
It’s never occurred to me that an actual tennis player would be amazing at table tennis too, it must feel like an easier version of the real thing
Not at all, very different game, not one is easier than the other.
This is quite poor table tennis actually lol

Because tennis do this sound when they hit the ball so it kills the pain as they on maximum effort

Tennis is never going to be the same again without Roger Federer. What an absolute legend.
Why, no more phisical advantage he had in the first few years of his career?
GOATED. 🐐🤩👏🎾😃
These are two grown man having fun😂😂
Men aren't allowed to have fun
This legend can play 🏓 like a pro 🎾 tennis player. That’s some really good coordination. No wonder he’s been unstoppable for all his career 🤩
Last shot made the ball disappear
Whoever he was playing against had a good Rafa grunt impersonation
It was Diego Schwartzman
Uhh NOVAK?
Was Diego!
the GOAT...I just want to see him play one more time 😢
So next step for Roger is table-tennis. Nice to know.
These top tier athletes really have crazy reflexes
The face... the rage...is the same.
That non dominant hand, muscle memory.
I guess he trading in regular tennis for table tennis 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Me trying to follow the ball
Meanwhile: *eeeh* *uuhh* *eeh*
i am a table tennis player, thats amazing how he use the principles tennis techniques to make those table tennis shots. He is a Genius!!!
The essence of pure class and elegance when it comes to tennis
killer instinct kicked in fast with that backhand
