I always say, flawless Roger Federer is the best version of tennis player ever. Novak Djokovic maintained high level due to his unerring habits but Federer with all guns firing is just the bestest in the universe.
The biggest thing that sets Federer part is when he’s playing his best and when his opponents are playing their best, it’s almost impossible to understand how he can still demolish them. When all things are firing correctly, he is unbeatable, I will stand by that for the rest of my life; Djokovic and Nadal make players feel like they just can’t get a ball past them. Federer makes players feel helpless. It’s absolutely 🤩
Djokovic is the most successful tennis player of all time. Without any whisker of doubt. Most solid, clutch, the mentally toughest one. But the greatest tennis player of all time is Roger Federer. That is just as indubitable. The GOAT debate cannot be purely about numbers. That’s like saying the greatest actor is the one whose films have made the most money. That’s nonsense. Greatness is about beauty, about impact, about breaking new ground, about achieving mastery. Anyone who really sees tennis with clear eyes and an open mind can see that Federer is the greatest artist the sport of tennis has ever seen.
yes, Djokovic is about longevity and consistency, allow ing him to statpad half of his Slam in the weak era in his 30´s. Federer´s peak is something else, Djokovic is better only on slow hard
Beauty and everything you said may make someone your favourite player while achievements are what make you the greatest.Being best and being favourite are 2 different things.You are too emotional to see through that.
roger truly had amazing ability and talent while many others are very good at simply running back and forth along the baseline roger floated around the court using drop shots and volleys/half volleys i am happy to have seen him play from beginning until retirement a very special player
Anno 2015, partita bellissima, Djokovic anche vinvcendo, e non ha mai raggiunto un.livello di tennis pari a ROGER, e qui e' stato surclassato dall' immensa classe di Sua Maesta il Re, ROGER FEDERER❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Federer ha perso finali Slam contro il serbo, sprecando macth point, ( vedi ultimo Wimbledon 2019) quindi era piu una questione di testa, e non dimentichiamo che Roger ha 6 anni in.piu, nel suo momento migliore a battuto chiunque ed ha espresso il miglior gioco di tennis di sempre, e questo lo dicono tutti, buonanotte e viva RE ROGER❤❤❤❤
I just love seeing these clips of Federer. Is he maybe in terms of “easy to admire” bigger than eg Messi or further back in the past Ali? I have a feeling that the answer might be “yes”! ❤️🫶🌈
The prime of mister 40-15 ended when Nadal and Djokovic started beating him. Mr 40-15 didn't actually start weakening but two rivals appeared who simply started beating him.
That's why they slowing courts in important tournaments. Federer was invincible in fast surfaces. this is the perfect example! peak Djokovic couldn't do anything against 34 years old grandpa
@victormanuelbustamantealva6803 No it's not. 2017 was definitely faster. Your eyes is not a good source. All the players and commentators in 2017 were saying it was faster than the previous year. I trust them more than your "eyes"
@victormanuelbustamantealva6803 It was pretty big. We got Federer/Nadal and Serena/Venus finals after years. Djokovic and Murray lost early. Mischa Zverev serve and volleyed his way to the QF. That would never have happened in 2016
never thought of it that way and ive been a fan for more than 20y. but yeah, i also cant see what they could learn, apart from the experience of playing the best ever
@@tobiaskluke7094 no- Nadal only had the Roland Garros-- and remember - RF was many times in the final - so; without Nadal- he would have like 25/26 Masters....only on Clay Rafa hat that ruling over him...not on gras, and certainly not on hard....
Well… what can I say? Roger lost the Wimbledon final 2008 to Rafa and 6 months later the Australian Open final again to Rafa when he burst into tears. He lost to Rafa again at the Australian Open in the semis in 2012 and 2014, so that is 3 times at the AO alone. Roger also lost in Dubai, Indian Wells and Cincinnati against Nadal. think you should review the H2H history. Altogether, 9 of 24 wins from Rafa over Roger were on hard courts
This is just a tease of how good can Federer performance in such a fast court. Shame on ATP they slowed down all courts in the whole tour last 20 years.
I agree - this match, the courts looked very fast! I'm really interested in this subject. I can't ever seem to find any real facts about why and when they did it.
Considering performance and H2H stats Novak and Nadal are in front of Roger. N and N are very strong, powerful machines. Roger, on the other hand is graceful and i think technically more perfect than any other player so far. Wonder why they call him The Maestro ? He can hit almost any shot from any position. And look very relaxed in the meantime. Being The GOAT is a matter of statistics. But the way one is doing it, might be more important.
naive people from Novak fans only care about slam numbers and h2h, they dont know how to dive deeper in statistics. Roger and Rafa both have their unique playing styles like on grass and clay, Novak doesnt since he's just relying on physical (rallying as long as I could), no one wants to watch that. People prefer unexpected shots like how Roger plays his game.
That was ridiculous! Very Best Regards, Tom Scott Author ● Speaker ● World's Leading Expert on the Corrupt U.S. Legal System _Our American Injustice System_ _Stack the Legal Odds in Your Favor_
If all players played each other at their very best, Rog would outplay them all. He is the only player I can honestly say was unbeatable when he was in best form.
Federer god mode only exists when the other player plays like shit. Like djokovic in that dubai finale. Strange how federer never had any god mode against nadal at Roland garros 😂
Novak is the strongest ever.Roger is the greatest.Nobody has been the world no.1 for 273?consecutive weeks.Roger was pretty much always loved.His game is elegant and entertaining than Novak's.Novak has better records by numbers,has more slams,but also has a lot of numbers for destroying rackets.😂
@victormanuelbustamantealva6803 most loved?😂you make me laugh.and by the way I never said Novak was worse or anything.Novak is better than Roger by the numbers.He beat Roger more times than Roger did.But he wasn't the man who changed tennis.Doesn't have the style,the elegance that suits "The Greatest" spot.Novak is The Strongest for me.Not the greatest.The scariest is Nadal btw.Greatest PRIME player is Novak.
@victormanuelbustamantealva6803Tennis is an exciting game but you reduce it by your emphasis on statistics .I prefer to see a video of Roger playing immaculate tennis to watching Novak live and tennis fans agree with me .

You know what would have been impressive. Actually winning slams that year. Guess who did that? Djokovic. Oh well he only won because Federer was old. Yet in this video you can clearly see how good Federer was in 2015. So why didn't he win a slam that year. Oh yeah Djokovic was better.
@@prempititantipool3075 People like you really like to obsess over the wins because maybe you don't understand tennis? H2H is 24-27 in Novak's favor against Roger. That's not exactly "domination".
