He deserves to win Grand Slam and massively promoted the sport in Asia. There's only been a few players to do that like Michael Chang, Li Na, Nishikori and this guy.
Robot Terminator 06 Federer, I was a privileged boy to watch tennis that year. I honestly believe the greatest hard court/grass court player of all time, if 06 Fed had a time machine to 2024 he'd destroy every single player on tour and win all 4 slams, and it wouldn't even be close. That year if 19 year old Murray and Nadal weren't on tour, he would have not even lost a single match for the entire year, that year he had a record 12 ATP singles titles.
He stopped playing in 2010, not being able in 2009 to come back from a 1.5 year injury. This match did take place in 2006, after Srichaphan eliminating two players I don't know (Moodie, Ginepri), then Ferrero, Nalbandian, and Nieminen. Had to check that!
A true legend. There needs to be more players from Asia competiting at this high level to help promote the sport. He was still playing and top 10 back then and deserves to win Grand Slams but was in the era of Federer Nadal.
@@NamTran-xc2ip Really he wasn't top 10? I thought made top 10 one season. Okay he's at least top 20. Kei Nishikori was top 10. On the women's side they had Li Na, Naomi Osaka and Zheng who just won Olympic gold. All top 10. There was also Michael Chang who was top 10 but he played as American. But this Thai guy was the only one from Thailand. Basically there are almost no Thai tennis players. Tennis is a brutal sport and most countries in Asia don't have big funding to develop tennis players except for China and maybe Japan.

Srichaphan…pride of ASEAN tennis
This dude was incredible
One of the most athletic and entertaining tennis players ever I don’t care if he never won a slam he’s a legend to me
same, his backhand slice was such a signature move to me; tried to imitate it back in the days
he won 20 slams

Being athletic and doing splits doesn't mean anything in tennis if you're heavy footed, which is exactly what's happening in this match.

I did not remember paradorn still playing in 2006.
He stopped playing in 2010, not being able in 2009 to come back from a 1.5 year injury.

@@NamTran-xc2ipSrichaphan was highest at number 9 on ATP but not at the end of the year. He was in the top 16 for a few years.
Paradorn “No Backhand” Srichaphan
lmao ur rigjt
True unfortunately. All Fed was doing was literally serving to the backhand, finish the point.
related to Jack "looking for a backhand" Sock and Steve "I did not come with a backhand" Johnson
Tell me you never watched tennis without actually telling me
Srichaphan reached atp 9 ranking with no backhand, impressive!
เขาเก่งมาก❤
I find it hilarious when someone plays against GOAT ( to me ) with their guns blaring but still gets obliterated. I miss Mr. Federer tremendously.
นักกีฬาไทยคนไหนทำได้เหมือนภราดรเลยเสียดายมากค่ะ
