Fed is the deva of tennis. There will never be another like him. You can count all sorts of statistics... none of that matters... all you need are your eyes to see that no-one has ever played the game as well as him.
Wow amazing to hear. i watch tennis since 2005. But without fed some magic is lost. I know he mostly lost all his records. But what you never can take from him is. He was the first men to get 20 gs titles
@@alexanderwinzer2602 his 20 gs was against a lot tougher opponents that dojo won with. he transitioned the transition of technology. think about it, he was winning against agassi and sampras. and he beat all the gen after them. tennis technology was different back then. he adopted to a change in surface that was advantageous to his game. he beat the next gen consistently. and he was still beating the current gen when his body finally gave in. if that is not amazing, I don't know what is.
As far as I'm concerned Federer inspired a whole new generation of tennis players & fans. A true tennis fan will respect all tennis greats. Appreciate those who've laid the groundwork for even more tennis excellence. Not only is Federer celebrated for his tennis skills but also for being such a class act. Thanks for this video gem.
Roger creates beautiful winners. That sets him apart. He executes. It is always a show to watch when he plays. He does not wait for opponents to make errors. He creates plays and winners here and there.
All that debate about most number slams or what not... The amount of skill that is needed to play this kind of tennis has only been achieved by one person ever. Where Novak and Rafa try to play the most solid tennis and watch their opponents make unforced errors, Federer goes out to actively create winners to finish rallies, some taking multiple steps to set up. Sure he doesn't get bonus points for doing it the hard way, but it sure is a lot more entertaining and respected.
This is the key point. Orchestrating and executing winners is teaching tennis its own potential. Outlasting opponents is great but not worthy of the title greatest tennis player. Maybe greatest athlete.
The number of times he moves forward to finish the point is astounding. Everytime he hits a solid shot and expects a weaker return, he moves forward and put more pressure.
He is and was the full package, everything, devastating acting serve with a forehand and backhand that was just as potent and a touch at the net like no other, and on top of that he had greatness like that humbled the greats,my favourite of my many favorites ❤.
Since he played just one tournament in 2020 and stopped playing mid-2021, 2019 was his last full season, so I officially consider it was his last season. And man, what an amazing season!
Sascha Zverev in the press conference after the match, "Roger was messing with the ball." 🤣 Ya think, Sascha? 🤣 When I watch tennis now I just imagine Old Roger eviscerating these young guys and Prime Roger triple bageling them.
Roger's game is just on next level, there is no words could articulate how beautiful his play is. The younger generation who got the chance to play with him is so lucky. But yet answering Roger's game somehow is like "what? I wonder do I know how to play tennis?"
Yes obviously Roger is incredible but it strikes me that in that first match, Tsitsipas was playing so much better than he is at the moment… We really took the consistency of the Big 3 for granted I think
to be fair consistency has always been the key for top players, it just isn't anymore. Even players that were not winning slams were consistend in the 2000s. Players like Berdych and Ferrer for example, were in top 10 for many many years without fumbling, even Tsonga who was a bit less consistent, was still playing well for the majority of the year. Honestly dunno what the problem is for players if this decade. They probably just have too many useless things inside their head.
@@luigimanzelli3786 Lol 2000s were the era of most inconsistent players ever. Top players like Hewitt, Roddick, Safin would often lose in 1st or 2nd rounds of grand slams against nobodies.
@@Milan1988Z i don't think you remember tennis very well.... those player might have lost sometimes, sure, but they still retained their spot in the rankings consistently for many years, thing that doesn't happen anymore these days. clear examples include Tsitsipas, Berrettini, Aliassime. The top 10 is always changing, in the 2000s the top 10 was always pretty much the same.
@@luigimanzelli3786 In first 3 years of 2000s (2001-2003) 17 different players qualified for the ATP finals tournamnet (being in top 8) In next 3 years (2004-2006) there were 15 different players. In first 3 years of the 2020s (2021-2023) there were 14 different players. So even in that regard things are more stable now. Players like Medvedev, Rublev, Zverev are very consistently in top places. (not to mention Djokovic, Alcaraz and now SInner) Players dropping in or out of top 10 due to injuries or bad form has always happened, that's normal in tennis.
Nole is the GOAT...... Yeah... But he never ever won so many games with such elegance and easiness making his opponents to look like kids, In that matter the greatest skill of Nole and Rafa was to be hard to break... but Roger just went through the game making everything to look easy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The most skillful tennis player the world has seen ever!!!!! even more skillful than the GOAT himself.
Of topic but federer 2015 is slept on for being one of his best versions over 30, he was literally perfect that szn but had to deal with a tennis monster in Wimbledon and the us open
@@Agent-bh9tk so wait Federer could beat Nadal off clay all those times in a row from 2014 and Nadal was younger. So it wasn't an advantage there for Nadal being younger (who is less than a year older than Djokovic). But it was when facing Djokoivc it was the big factor.... So interesting.. But let's look at it.. . Djokovic was beating 26 year OLD Federer at the Australian Open. Federer could never beat Djokovic at the Australian open again. Fed won 1 set TOTAL in 4 matches Djokovic beats just turned 29 year OLD Federer at the US open in 2010. Federer could never beat Djokovic at the US open again. Whenever Djokovic first beat Federer at a slam Federer could NEVER beat Djokovic there again.. Federer's last ever slam match win against Djokovic was when Federer was still only 30 in 2012 Federer was owned at the slams long before he was "OLD". Federer didn't retire for more than another 10 years
@@huzcer it is quite simple. Nadal is not on Novak and Federer level on grass and hard. Novak prime was not as good as Fed, but he was younger. Another factor was his psychical strengh. Yup, in this he is greatest. I like Djoko, good Serbian man, i enjoyeed that he got the slam rekord, but he is not the greatest tennis player.
@@Agent-bh9tk He is definitely not the greatest. Nor is he a great champion or ambassador for the sport and role model for the younger generations ON court. Off court he is awesome but the way he treats his team, fans and behaves in a match is an utter disappointment, just for that he cannot be labelled as the greatest. He is the stats king, he needed that or no one would ever remember him.
I think it was Dimitrov who said that the most soul crushing player to play against in his prime was Prime RF. He said that RF made it feel like a hopeless struggle aka "I am INEVITABLE"
5 minutes after winning Wimbledon in 2023 Alcaraz was caught joking in Spanish with the actual King Philip of Spain about serving out the match “I was thinking in when Federer had 40-15 against Novak. Please this can’t happen to me”. Federer is truly an inspiration.
His time has passed. We will fondly remember Federer as one of the three who dominated tennis. Although he did not have the most Grand Slams, he had the most beautiful game of most tennis players from that era. RIP Federer we will remember you with pleasure, you were good.
I love seeing top young players with single handed backhands - some of them may even be as good as Roger's but none so far have his creativity and tactical sense. Most these days develop as hard hitting baseliners. If Alcaraz had a SHBH he would have been the closest to Federer's creative all court game but even he never serve volleys like Federer would in the right situation or surface. We might have to wait a long time for another that both inspires and wins like Roger.
The fact Federer was so dominant in his prime then after it he was still a force to be feared. Even at the end of his career when Federer is on even Novak and Nadal fear Federer.
That indoor hardcourt in Basel Switzerland at 10:00 is a fast court...just like they used to be. And what do you know Federer destoys him and looks amazing doing it. Also destroys Zverev on that indoor grass court in Halla to win it for the 95h time. People don't realize how by tennis slowing down ALL the surfaces and the balls it reality fucked Federer. They wanted to make it more competitive and it worked. It wasn't until they slowed it down that Djokovich and Nadal got any foothold outside of Nadal on clay. ON FAST courts Federer is nearly unbeatable even against Nadal and Djokovich. On INDOOR fast courts he blows them out the water so bad they literally had to change the courts and balls lol
agreed! fast court tennis is a tougher skill as it requires faster reactions and rewards aggressive tennis which is more high risk requiring no room for error
Djokovic with the 3 - ZERO record on Federer in the final title matches of the ATP Finals - players usually complaining they are too fast those courts. Same 3- Zero as at Wimbledon title finals. Federer lost to David "0 masters titles" Goffin in the ATP Finals semi with a lay-up final vs flaky Dimitrov waiting. Djokovic at an older age beat Alcaraz and Sinner back to back for the the ATP Finals title for a record 7th win. Sinner would chew up and spit out 2017 Goffin for breakfast. And of course talking about Zverev, he beat Federer 4-3 in the head to head including beating Federer at Halle, Shanghai, ATP Finals... Halle was truly the land of pigeons for Federer - across his 10 titles he beat a grand total of 1 single Top 10 ranked player. Bublik beat 2 Top 10 players on his way to the title in 2023 😂
Yeah I'm sure Federer, the most popular and well liked tennis player in history, is the reason they changed balls and court speeds, because....??? The slowing down and homogenization of the sufaces, as well as adopting heavier balls, started before anybody gave a shit about Federer.
@@WivoRNWhat confuses me is that the ump had already called it out(fault),that's why the play was stopped right? So by challenging the fault/out call, isn't Federer basically saying it should be in? Zverev was already going to do a 2nd serve regardless. Is there something I'm missing?
Just BTW, and speaking of "Next Gen", I was happy to see Tiafoe in a final. Maybe he'll be able to 'come into his own' and realize his potential without the "Big4" beating him at every turn. I sincerely hope he rises to get to the Top 10.
I think that I missed Federer and Nadal so much that I am playing their matches and training everyday on RUclips. Next Gen in Tennis is still unpredictable and still be shaped into a fine players. Hopefully some of them, will no longer smashed their racquet, involved in doping scandal unintentionally, cursing the linesman etc. And counting days for another dramas to come. The impact is too great to Tennis.
Not a compilation for Nole fans. It settles the discussion on why they call Fed the greatest even if the numbers are in Nole's favor. And sports are not only about numbers, happily.
@@Saskobest Zverev is being derided as being thrashed here by Fed but he got the best of him in the7- match head to head. Their last match was only a few months after Federer was in a slam final. And this was when Zverev was renowned for the double-fault yips.
@@huzcer all of them(Zverev,Thiem and Tsitsipas) beat him hard in 2018/19 when Fed was older than Novak is right now and with more worn out body. Apart from 3 tournaments, Fed played horribly in 2019

To be entirely fair to the youngsters (as here it really looks like it was just lambs to the slaughter), Tsitsipas has a 2-2 H2H against Fed and Zverev - 4-3. Daniil is 0-3, but all those 3 matches were in 2018 and 19, before he improved and became a regular fixture in the GS semis and finals
He is the greatest in term of entertainment an class for sure, but your titles are little too click-baity . Dont see how 64 64 very close match vs Tsitsipas is humiliation . You can get the same views just typing - 5 matches of Federer vs Next gen
No wonder Nole does well, havent seen the rest yet but Thiem even though they were great Federer shots half them didn't beat him but he hit the net or out the lines. Unforced errors. Means Nole doesn't have to be better just more consistent.
I don’t think there has even been a more aesthetically pleasing sight on a tennis court than Roger Federer in full flow.

@@huzcer cmon Zverev,Thiem and Tsitsipas got wins over Fed when he was 36-38.
@@Saskobest Zverev is being derided as being thrashed here by Fed but he got the best of him in the7- match head to head. Their last match was only a few months after Federer was in a slam final. And this was when Zverev was renowned for the double-fault yips.
@@huzcer all of them(Zverev,Thiem and Tsitsipas) beat him hard in 2018/19 when Fed was older than Novak is right now and with more worn out body.
Apart from 3 tournaments, Fed played horribly in 2019
@@Saskobest And in 2017 when Federer was younger than Djokovic when Djokovic beat Alcaraz and Sinner back to back to win the ATP Finals Fed Lost to David "0 masters titles" Goffin in the ATP Finals Semi with flaky Dimitrov waiting in the lay-up final... I mean Sinner would chew up and spit out 2017 Goffin for breakfast.
There's nothing more satisfying than watching Tsitsipas lose.
he is the real monster
Sublime beauty
I was pretty sharp and fit with 37, now with 40 after a rough accident everything's pretty much gone...
He made zverev looked like a beginner
Such an natural speedup in his shots. It looked so easy. Because by the brilliant and perfect technique. Compare this to Medvedev. Horrible!
To be entirely fair to the youngsters (as here it really looks like it was just lambs to the slaughter), Tsitsipas has a 2-2 H2H against Fed and Zverev - 4-3. Daniil is 0-3, but all those 3 matches were in 2018 and 19, before he improved and became a regular fixture in the GS semis and finals
He is the greatest in term of entertainment an class for sure, but your titles are little too click-baity . Dont see how 64 64 very close match vs Tsitsipas is humiliation . You can get the same views just typing - 5 matches of Federer vs Next gen
RF was the MJ of tennis
NEO stands for new engine option if your talking aviation
Fed completely manhandled Tiafoe.
No wonder Nole does well, havent seen the rest yet but Thiem even though they were great Federer shots half them didn't beat him but he hit the net or out the lines. Unforced errors. Means Nole doesn't have to be better just more consistent.

When nothing you do works…
The guy can perfectly drop shot a 200 km/h ball from 300 meters away.
Watching 01 to 09 Fed growing up still think that Fed was better but just because he wanted it more and was quicker

It's school time xD
