That point at 9:02 is one of my favorites ever. Gonzalez put every ounce of energy and will into it, and it took all of Federer's skill, guile, and athleticism to finally finish it.
This was by far the best coach fg had... He had a chance here and was a break ahead on the first set. His problem wasn't fg's backhand, but his head, his tennis here was the highest in his career in this game.
People love to diminish excellence for some sad reason. People forget federer holds a winning record vs Wawrinka, Murray, and Medvedev. All 3 of them won slams and were legit players in Nadal and Djokavic's era.
Now I understand why Fedu did not get further in professional tennis. Despite his massive forehand, his backhand was far too weak to cause any damage to opponents. Equally, his serve also looked average.
As far as i'm concerned, Federer already past his prime in 2007. This is the year where he started to change his forehand technique to a smaller swing to minimize movement and make it more consistent on the rally, he lost the fire he had in that shot on the autel of modernity. I'm not even talking about his game style, started to be much more defensive after.

Ah yes, more from that "weak era". Gonzo had a strong record against almost all players except Federer.

Fun to watch, the Chilean
Gonzalez had a huge forehand but unfortunately he didn’t have much of an offensive backhand, and was usually being targeted
His backhand slice serve return was looking very average making Federer service games a breeze. He just never really had a chance in this match
His backhand killed in this tournament though!
You cant out slice Federer
you cant beat him with pure slice, Gonzalez has no backhand practically
@@Logan00710 Delpo did it in US Open vs Federer, just slice backhands and bomb forehands

He played well, but his forehand was already starting to lack
dude i cant see it its still so great@@quentinhirschfeld9382
Past his prime at the old age of 26 😂😂😂😂😂
the autel? what
WHY ON EARTH HE DIDN'T HIT A PROPER BACKHAND ALWAYS SLICING?
Porque jugaba todo con slice González
porque era lo que aprendió e incorporó más, mucho exceso y abuso de eso federer se lo hizo pagar
aca se notaba que federer le sabia jugar al feña, evitaba su derecha a toda costa.
Why was gonzalez hitting just slices? I mean hit normal backhands, it's obvious that you lose the match playing like that.
Nice
Federer, el campeón más llorador de la historia del tenis cuando perdía, cero respeto al que lo ganaba
González = worst backhand of all time.
WEAK ERA HAHAHAHHAHA
