Federer from 2004-2010 was the highest level, most beautiful tennis I’ve ever seen. I’ve been a huge tennis fan since the mid 70’s so I’ve seen a bit of tennis.
Same here remember running to watch Borg McEnroe when a kid , through the era of hitting the ball as hard as possible and then comes Roger who turned everything back to how beautiful tennis as a game actually was. You can see the many players who have grown up in this era where their game looks more like Rogers than anyone else's style.
@@fraerot Novak was Mr nobody at that period. Infact when Roger aged and weak he went to his peak. Infact Novak was never tested when Roger was in his peak.
His game was so mesmerizing back at his height that you always wanted to see him play at that level again, nadal was his main obstacle as he could negate his great shots with his speed, which made the journey more interesting to watch, each of one the big 4 had times where they were beating each other, which makes them all great, most people say Murray doesn’t belong there but just because he didn’t do it as long doesn’t mean that he never reached that extremely high level on these guys have reached. Stan was there but he was never as complete of players as these 4 were. At their peak they had no weaknesses and could hit almost any shot at the perfect timing.
He was good, but not excellent. He had succesfull Seasons 2003-2008 in a very weak era of tennis, even mats Wilander accepted it. Back in those days, the guys to beat were Roddick, Safin, Hewitt, etc… (they had a winning %lesser than 70. As opposed to Nadal and Djokovic whom best seasons faced opponets who had winning percentage above 70%= nadal, Djokovic, Federer, del Potro, Stan, Murray, nishikori, Zverev, Medvedev….
Roger Federer and Andy Murray have played each other professionally a total of 25 times with Federer leading the head to head with 14 wins to Murray's 11.
@@4lugan in the early 2000s masters (except Madrid and Paris) where played with 6 rounds (and no byes for the top seed in the first round), and finals where mostly best of 5 sets. Wondering how a Zverev or Medvedev would do with those standards. Federer opponents were maybe 'weaker' then the players are now, but it's hard to say how good Nadal or Djokovic would be without the inspiration they got from Federer
As much as I love seeing Federer playing, I think I can say the same for Novak for his words. His appreciation is really genuine and I love listening to his speeches.
Such a gift to tennis world you had been Roger. The impact you had and continuing to have on others, young or old in tennis and beyond is extraordinary to see. Very rare talent and quality of a human being and epitome of sportsmanship you demonstrated during entire career. God bless you 🙏
I'm a big fan of all of the "big three". As each of them slowly retire, it's gonna be very sad. That's why they call it the golden era of men's tennis, because of the big three. After them, who knows...it might not happen again.
These recent years have been the tennis equivalent of the Golden Years of Hollywood. As Cary Grant, Fred Astaire, Gregory Peck were to that era so are Roger, Rafa and Novak to this era of mens tennis. We will never see another era like it, because of the sheer improbability of the three greatest players of all time playing at the same time. Imagine 3 Michael Jordans or 3 Usain Bolts competing against each other.
I doubt I will ever be such a big fan of any sporting figure ever again. Roger sets an example of a life lived to the maximum. Just being a fan has been a lot of fun.
NOVAK YOU ARE AMAZING A SUPERSTAR A GENIUS WITH A HEART ❤ ♥ 💖 💗 💓 💕 ❤ ♥ OF GOLD GOOD LUCK NOLE MISS YOU BEEN WATCHING YOU YEAR'S YOU WILL RISE AGAIN NOVAK MARGO
@Hawke For sure Novak said that..Did Federer ever said that for Novak? Never...Why? Because he is so sad and poor man.. So yes, I believe that Novak said that this poor man is the GOAT, what he could make other for him, since he put him in history 15 years ago! When the big one envied the little one?
Me who was never tennis fan , then started watching it just because of Nole , then starting this year loveing Novak even more because of his courage , ending the year crying because Roger is leaving 🤷🏻🤷🏻
''The King is dead, long live the King!'' Having watched Wimbledon since it's been televised on BBC, so many greats have come and gone, each of their time. Keep an eye on Carlos Alcaraz. He doesn't have the top speed serve but his anticipation and shot selection are the best I have seen. When you are looking down on the court it is easy to see where most shots should go to win the point and even the best only choose a small percentage of these best tactical plays. Carlos Alcaraz is the first I've seen who hits a high percentage of tactical shots, changing direction, playing to places where the opponent isn't or has just left.
I think we’ve been so fortunate to watch four of the greatest players of all time in a generation competing against each other and at the same time truly respect and are so humble and close together as friends , we’ve been truly blessed & entertained by them all , and I don’t think we’ll ever see true greatness that grace the courts like these guys have done over there careers, 👏👏
For me..watching tennis will not be same again without Federer.because i grew up n played tennis inspired by him.thats my opinion,everyone can have different
There is no tennis player I admire and love to watch as much as Roger Federer. Such a unique, talented and artistic game that is like a signature style. Yes, he floats over the court like a dancer, but at the same time there's power and creative genius there. I will miss seeing him play in any venue, but at least we have documentation of so many great matches he played. I feel blessed to have been able to see him play for so many years with such greatness on display. Whatever the debate about the Greatest of All Time, for me RF was the most enjoyable to watch and obviously a player of such incredible skill that he achieved so many triumphs along the way. I don't know if I can watch tennis matches with the same enthusiasm ever again. The long rally baseline game and the hardcore power game don't impress me that much or compel me to watch. Seeing Roger play at his height for so long spoiled me and left me feeling that he had a game so much more beautiful than anyone else that there's virtually no comparison.
When Bjorn says " not bigger than tennis itself" i felt he wanted to say otherwise but of course that does "not make sense" , no one is greater than the sport, but for me, he is, he was the only reason i wanted to see a match, i really stopped watching tennis cause Federer is not there, except for Rafas finals, in any tourney, but he is greater than tennis, for sure, same for Rafa .
Hopefully we will see Roger again..probably the next Davis Cup captain for Switzerland and maybe he can help form the next young tennis talents from his homeland, play exhibitions sometimes and be involved with tennis in any shape or form.
His game was a masterpiece A symphony of tennis He is missed Will be missed A player whose game Is something to watch Admire Wishing him the best The one The only Federer
Good bye Roger. Your 2017 Wimbledon win cannot be equalled. To do it at that age without dropping a set was dominating. There will be no equal for generations. Thanks for the memories
Great player no doubt about it. Both Federer and Nadal and the No 1 Of all times Jokovich. I think Federer should have been less crying more happy. He has great personality. He had great history close 2nd to no 1 Jokovich which is fantastic. Over all there is no doubt Nadal Federer and Jokovich are the best three players of all times with Jokovich the no 1. But it would have been intresting an intetesting match to see a imaginary match of Federer younger at age similar to jokovich againt Jokovich ; Maybe Federer would have won this. May it is Federer no 1 of all times if you take age difference into consideration It is difficult to know. Again no doubt Federer is a great player. Less crying more happy , like a true champ.
I think Roger should return to pro tour as a coach, he should travel and be present in tournaments, if he just retires like Sampras it would hurt tennis as a game.
Hello roger you are a great champion. If it wasnt for nadal and djocovic you could have won more grand slam titles. You are my favourite male tennis champion of the last 20 years. Happy retirement.
oh wait ..speaking of that... isn;t it that they are still looking for someone to replace Daniel Craig? And since he is already in London why not just be the next JB? :D
great event worthy of the brilliant career of perhaps the best ever, but still, one question must be asked--Who the hell let Jack Sock in to this event?
For me Borg and Federer were the greatest.Different tennis games but eerily similar mindsets.........They never got flustered,never lost their temper,they never mouthed off or ranted and raved.You could never read them.Borg was the "Iceborg",a veritable brick wall with no weaknesses.Roger was unflappable.Whether they won or lost the last point,they treated it the same way........as ancient history,and got on with the next point.Legends of the game.
Aahh man. Im sorry but tennis has just lost. SOMETHING. Since he retired. Buy god Joker or Murray better win Wimbledon. The other players. They just dont have. That SWAG.❤😢😊
@@gerardmackay8909 The only player male or female to win 2 gold medals , 11 slam finals and not a tax exile into the bargain. Must be a reason why the other three always include him.
@@alanpattinson6211 absolutely! He isn’t a natural with the media the way Federer and Djokovic are but he’s hugely respected in the game not only for his prodigious talent but his warmth and affability too. That he was up against 3 ‘otherworldly’ tennis Gods his entire career makes his achievements all the more impressive, I’m only sorry he didn’t manage to convert one or two of those multiple Australian finals into victory ( finally, as you say, the fact that his home is in Surrey and not Monaco or the Bahamas, just makes a fine man even finer).

Will miss you, Roger. love you. A gentleman. Love how grateful you are. Humble. Great sense of humour.
Andy Rodick has a sense of humor. Nick Kyrgios & mr. McEnroe too. Also Đoković. Federer played the most beautiful tennis, but sense of humour..nah

Roger's charisma as a tennis player is just 'something' you don't really see the same from other players.
The guys looking so dapper in their suits❤ Really looking forward to the tennis tomorrow!
Of all the great players in the history of the sport I don't believe any other player has had the same impact as Roger
@Hawke In basketball, definitely. But when I said the sport I meant tennis
As much as I love seeing Federer playing, I think I can say the same for Novak for his words. His appreciation is really genuine and I love listening to his speeches.
Most beautiful game I have ever seen and will ever see.
His work ethic and talent is deeply admired, but his personality throughout it all is truly envied.
Love this guy so much. Thank you for making tennis so beautiful to watch.
Great to see all these other greats talk about possibly the greatest tennis player ever love from New Zealand
Roger, you are such a pleasant person to listen to. All the best to you and your family!
They are all looking so handsome. Roger has nothing to prove. He has done it all, but he still has something in the tank.

Good bye Roger. Your 2017 Wimbledon win cannot be equalled. To do it at that age without dropping a set was dominating. There will be no equal for generations. Thanks for the memories
Why cannot be equalled? Novak need just one more title to equall Roger.
I like them both
Great player no doubt about it. Both Federer and Nadal and the No 1 Of all times Jokovich. I think Federer should have been less crying more happy. He has great personality. He had great history close 2nd to no 1 Jokovich which is fantastic.

Novak Djokovic will retire as the world's best tennis player
Roger will clearly coach, the enormous question is WHO! Who would benefit the most from Roger? I'd say Tsitsi or Sinner.
He was the bat.shall miss his playing.
Legend
Bjorn Borg’s “I will miss him a lot” is the about the most emotional thing BB has ever said.
just goooo
Rogers biggest achievement was making people full in love with the game.
I think Roger should return to pro tour as a coach, he should travel and be present in tournaments, if he just retires like Sampras it would hurt tennis as a game.

Hello roger you are a great champion. If it wasnt for nadal and djocovic you could have won more grand slam titles. You are my favourite male tennis champion of the last 20 years. Happy retirement.
It seems there is interview after interview; not much else going on, maybe a little bit of practice but mostly PR for Roger and for Tennis itself.
He also looks the best in a suit lol ! James Bond'ish
