Hope you enjoy today's video! Don't forget to DROP A LIKE and Subscribe for more Original Tennis content! One of the craziest matches ever in tennis history. Brutal playing conditions.
You look at the match from the sky view and it doesn't look that bad, but as soon as it pans to court-level cameras, there whole court is submerged in the gust of dust. I could never. I think Roger's smile at 16:52 meant "I don't care if I lose here, I don't want to play in conditions like this for the whole week anyway" type of smile.
The weather really bothered Federer timing in those shots. And also, credit to Chardy who used to trouble Federer quite a bit in some of their matches.
Congrats to chardy! To come up with a shot like this on 6-5 in the decider after hitting a double foult is crazy! And against a player like Federer! Obviously Federer didn't played his best tennis that day but chardy still had to go out there and win it!
I love it. I recently beat a kid less than half my age playing in a heavy wind, because I knew how to handle it and he didn't. USe your FH slice a lot....

Didnt the same thing happen to his match against nadal at the french open a few years ago?
@@johnl2613Similar yes but they are numerous times when Federer adapted better on windy conditions.
Wow that was close. 1st MS loss in 4 years????? Surely not
They must have meant first round loss. His last before this match was in the same tournament to Gulbis four years earlier.
Congrats to chardy!
