Imagine a guy like Federer having the humility to ask if it would be okay for him to play even something like Doubles from Borg. He's an amazing guy and we're all so fortunate to have had him as part of our great sport.
true, but borg is pure marketing and effectively has nothing to say. did you hear him say anything to his team except "come on, let's go"?! :-) none of the players ever asked for his advice either.
Never had a public breakdown or scandal, stayed at the top of the game for decades, and acted as an ambassador for the sport around the world. The man is the definition of class.
And I as a Roger fan have the most respect for Rafa. And especially after his today's dedication to help Roger's last match to be a winning one and his tears afterwards not only because Federer's retirement but also because they lost in his last match says much for his great character... He did everything he could and he wanted Roger to win more than even Roger wanted himself today lol. But im can't overcome Roger's retirement... The saddest thing is that he didn't stop tennis because he wanted to, but because he was forced by injuries. I hope that it won't be the same with Rafa and I wish him a long duration and even more success for the rest of his career from the bottom of my heart he deserves it...
@@MrGenexxx Well we don't even care about Novak and he is not the GOAT. You just feel the urge to say something about him and put him in the conversation
@@dinfak7939 You're right. I'm very insecure. Deep down I know Novak will never be on the same level as Fedal and he will always be the third wheel. And it hurts. Really hurts.
When Roger speaks it is so genuine, truthful and heartful. Sometimes so funny & silly. It is complete open heart. This is one of the major reasons why we love ❤️ Roger along with his beautiful tennis.
Roger will always be the GOAT no matter the records. I’m so happy I got to see him and Joker play a final at IW in the second row. Was an amazing experience.
From 2001 when he beat Sampras at Wimbledon, I was a fan. Never expected what he would achieve and how he'd set the bar, and how he'd push Rafa and vice-versa and helped create Novak and Andy as well. There was a time they all were chasing him. He's always been my fave and always will. A gentleman and class act. Artist on the court.
There are so many great sports stars in every sports. However, many stars don't have quite demeanor, personality such as Federer. He is definitely the true role model on, and off the court. He is the definition of true champion. Every sportsmen need to learn a lot from him how he carried himself, treated others throughout his twenty plus years of his amazing tennis career. Im going to miss him a lot...he's the main reason that I watched, played tennis years ago.
I love Roger....huge fan since 2000... so can't help tearing up now. my love to Roger always and just want to say I will continue to support him in all his future endeavors. what he has done for the game and how he has elevated the sport and showed us how tennis players can also be global ambassadors and the best of men, he is truly worth idolizing. Roger, you are extraordinary and are a wonderful role model for all people. Thank you.
How much he embraces and enjoys his relationships (by choice) with his greatest rivals is very unique, and makes him so different than any other athlete ever
thank you, Roger Federer, for setting such a high benchmark of class, eloquence, and sportsmanship in global sports. tennis will never be the same after you retire. ever. you will always be the maestro virtuoso of tennis 🙌 #teamFederer
He ways was great to listen to as well. Great to watch and great to listen. I will definitely miss him. Tennis will not be the same anymore without him. I will probably not care for what is going on and who is no. 1 or what. I remember it was Roger who brought my interest back in the game after the Agassi - Sampras era came to an end. Now he is gone. But, he gave us so many great moments and I also had the privilege to see him play live in Delhi and that was an awesome moment in my life.
Thank you for everything Roger! We love you so much and we can't wait to see you back in a different capacity. Wishing you all the best and we are all waiting for Fed-Rafa doubles.
The "Gentleman of Tennis" leaves. The GOAT. His Majesty. I am truly sad as many people around the world. It will be very difficult for someone to take his place. From Ecuator
I flew from the States on Friday, watched him at O2 on Sat, I had to, and came back the same day, today it felt like a dream, thank you Roger for how profoundly you impacted our lives.
All these years, I've been cheering for Nadal to beat Federer whenever they meet. But now that Fed is bowing out, I'm just so sad to see him retire. The end of the era, the passing of a legend, and an all-time great. 😢We've truly been spoiled.
Hvala Rodzeru, Novaku, Rafi koji su svojim vrhunskim teniskim umecem a I sportskim ponasanjem- uticali na mladje generacije da se bave tenisom I postanu dobri sportisti I ljudi. H V A L A A A
Roger will definitely be a good mentor and coach. Lucky the young players who will be given the opportunity to be under the tutelage of the greatest of all time tennis player. We love you Roger and will miss you. All the best and take care always. Please do consider commentating every now and then 😊
He's pretty special. Tennis god. Likable man. He's been given quite a retirement send-off and I think he deserves it. Will probably be the last name to be forgotten by the world of tennis. I say that while being a loyal Djokovic fan.
Besides everything he showed on and off the court for two decades, his charity work and being such a phenomenal ambassador, his idea to start the Laver Cup is on another level of his genius giving it back to the game helping nurture player camaraderie
I have been watching 100% of RF's matches since 2004, when I was a kid; not possible to watch them live, I watched them recorded or online. I was never able to see him live, though it was a great wish since childhood... Now... I have mixed feelings, but for sure I feel sad for not being able (time, money) to be in that atmosphere created in one of his matches. And I feel sad because this ends now. I went to his website and I bought a cap, with his logo and "Roger" on the back, in a beautiful dark green colour. It is a nice cap. In the end, I feel grateful for being able to watch his amazing career in colors. 😊
I don’t even watch tennis or understand it very well but I’m very aware fond and respect highly the three headed goat of tennis. Like football has a two headed goat, maybe basketball too.
Thank you Roger. It was great !! I had many happy times watching you play your brilliant game !! I wish you the very best while you start this new stage in your life with your beautiful family ! 💕🌷
You will always be with the heart of peoples who love seing you whenever you play. You are the Champion of Tennis in the world. Every tennis great but you make tennis special.
Roger would be THE PERFECT commentator. He speaks and communicates at top levels, speaks 5 or 6 languages fluently, knows about Tennis ( Duhhh) and mostly, ....i just wanna hear his voice, and i'd feel he would still be around, and in touch with the fans.
Ooffffff. Can’t believe one of the GOATS retired on my day of birth. I say nole is 1, Rafa 2, Roger 3. But it’s CLOSE. And if i could choose I’d play like the Swiss Maestro
Roger's love of the game is not in question. He has plenty of fame, fortune, and celebrity. I would be very interested in hearing him speak about what tools he used to motivate himself, decade after decade, that enabled him to maintain the mentally positive competitive attitude necessary to continue playing at an elite level. Knowing you must still practice for hours, do hours of physical exercise to maintain strength and flexibility, play through the aches and pains, have lots of physiotherapy, etc., all these things would eventually make most players lose their mojo. I would enjoy hearing him speak about motivation, how to sustain a winning frame of mind, how do you stay focused on the positive aspects instead of being distracted by the negatives? You'd think that after having knee surgery, all of the above would make him call it quits, and yet he still wanted to see if his body could get back into game shape. I'll certainly miss watching you, but I'm grateful for your professional attitude, your public display of sensibility, and for years of entertainment with masterclass shot making. We never hear about your philanthropic endeavours. I would find it worthwhile to see your leadership side, to see how the world is benefiting from what tennis enabled you to do.
Roger has been a poetry in motion on court and such a statesman off it. His being made my association with a Swiss company such a matter of pride in career. Hope to see him in some tennis avatar again. I am sure he will excel like always.
I want to see Federer in any capacity around tennis. Literally anything he wants to do, even if he ballboys a match again :) Hope he also plays on the senior tour.
Agree! Let‘s just appreciate how unbelievably lucky we were to see THREE once-in-a-lifetime players at the same time! I don‘t think enough tennis fans value HOW lucky we were to live through these 2, almost 3 unique tennis-decades!
I hasbeen crying For your retirement. My dream was ser You. Allá My love Mr federeryourfamily You are an exsmple. I love youas SPORT family guíe ando m6 Idol. I cried somuch laver cup venezuela
The last part about the old codgers being sore losers is true, you just cannot get tired of listening to this man (if you do get tired then there’s something seriously wrong with you). Commentary might be it for the next chapter and I’m here for it
This man is the definition of class and statesmanship. Tennis has never had a better Ambassador and imo, never will again.
The best 👌 there is.
Lendl and federer my favourite players
I agree. Very well said.

glad he stopped destroying rackets tho
As a Rafa fan, I have most respect for Roger. Thank you, CHAMPION!

I would love to see Federer as a commentator for tennis matches. He understands the game so well.
that would be so great. I d love to see him in the senior tour too if his knee is not broken
He will probably be a coach...
@@foxskyful he said he doesn't want to coach
@@asdfswer4657 He won't be the first to change his mind.
@@foxskyful nah, he's not that type and he'll be busy with other projects.

That’s RF!! What a great comment!
What a champion. On the court and in life. ❤️

Such a class athlete and person - a true inspiration. Wonderful privilege to watch him over the years. He deserves all the kudos he gets.
Federer is always so classy, well-spoken and gracious in interviews. Simply one of the greatest tennis players ever
He came, He saw, He conquered. Not just the world of tennis but also our hearts and created a dent in the universe.

With kids these days playing a lot of video games, Federer and Nadal made my kids play tennis and being outside playing the sport. Thank you!
Omg when he says the home court advantage he will never take it for granted... Humble Goat
Who's here crying after seeing his last match?
You can tell that Roger really loves and enjoys sportsmanship and companionship from his fellow players and friends.
The "Gentleman of Tennis" leaves. The GOAT. His Majesty. I am truly sad as many people around the world. It will be very difficult for someone to take his place. From Ecuator
all is right except Goat ... Hope he aint
Un ottimo tennista , sempre un grande piacere vedere un suo match .Una carriera splendida

Agreed and well said.
Funny I felt the same.
I will be so original but have to say it love, love, love this guy! Thank you, Roger, for what you presented on the court and beyond!
A legend will miss you Roger

You will be missed on the courts but enjoy the next stage of your life with your family ❤

…..and one of the most elegant men ever.
Role model for the world ❤
Thank you Roger. It was great !! I had many happy times watching you play your brilliant game !! I wish you the very best while you start this new stage in your life with your beautiful family ! 💕🌷
Nobody has given more to tennis than this man.

Such a humble man
You will always be with the heart of peoples who love seing you whenever you play. You are the Champion of Tennis in the world.

Roger Federer the greatest ever Champion never to forget. Thank you my Hero. Paris, France 🙏👏🥰
Wishing Roger all the best in retirement!
he's so humble and down to earth

Just immagine Roger and John Mc , both together commentating a tennis match. I would watch the game just to hear them talk !
The game will definitely miss Roger from a big Nole fan Respect
wish to see u play once but it is what it is, thq very much Roger !! Your are the reason i watched tennis.. thankyou will miss you already

Eres único gracias bendiciones

Class Act. He is missed.
We needed that big 4 earlier! Can’t believe it was upon retirement that they all came together
I trust he’ll get another farewell at his hometown Basel later in the year when the tournament finishes❤️
Roger commentator!!❤
This man is class personified. He, Rafa and Novak all bring something different to the table but I think Roger moved with more grace on the court.
What a gent he is......
Federer, Nadal, Djokovic, Murray in one team is like Tyson, Kai, Ray, Max from Bladebrakers 😎
Oh My God... I thought I was the only on the planet thinking this..
@@muhammadismail4774 u thought the same thing??

3 guys took 63 major titles. It won’t happen again.

I want Rafa and Federer together
calling Tennis matches !!!
Can't wait if one day Roger commentating Grand Slams finals, talk about how it feels when play against Rafa or Novak, that would be awesome!!!
Miss you already Roger 😩😩😩, what’s even worse is I can’t afford the expensive ticket 😩
I hasbeen crying For your retirement. My dream was ser You. Allá My love Mr federeryourfamily

Dam you Roger why you doing this 💔💔💔💔
Le boss part mais ces exploits et sa personnalités restera a vie merci pr tt roger
Great in everything!
What could I say, Roger?
Simple thing: I'll never watch tennis again!
It would be amazing if Federer do some commenting jobs. I would love to hear him commenting in French.
It is rumoured that he will be a commentator for ESPN n BBC.
The last part about the old codgers being sore losers is true, you just cannot get tired of listening to this man (if you do get tired then there’s something seriously wrong with you). Commentary might be it for the next chapter and I’m here for it
Hope Roger becomes a pundit for BBC Wimbledon every year. As he is the King on grass.
I'm up for a match, Roger (?)
