This was a "now or never" situation for Roger, without Rafa in the other side of the net, and he handled it like a champion. As a fan, it was hard to see Rafa, despite being friends, punishing him without mercy year after year, just like telling him "I love you Roger, but while I´m here, you have no chance to lift these trophy". And one day Soderling happened. The rest is history
It's fair in a way. Federer is the exact same kind of being for Andy Roddick, who also won a GS before Roger kicked in, and never got a chance after that
Its like söderling was sent to earth so that fed can win the french open at least once
❤
The most special, most meaningful, most valuable championship of Federer's career. He completed an entire career.
And he only did it because Nadal lost to Soderling. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying this title was undeserved…but in terms of level played, this was one of Fed’s worst slam victories.
@@mikemoggerson6651Nadal is a slow surface merchant and the most overrated tennis player to ever exist. Sure his numbers suggest he’s one of the greatest ever, but if you look at his play style and tennis skill it’s the antithesis to Federer. Both Roger and Novak are way, way more skilled tennis players than Nadal which is why Nadal has almost zero success on medium or fast courts, and can mainly only dominate on clay and very slow hard court. The other 2 could win on anything but were better on medium fast and fast surfaces. A lot of people hate Novak because he holds all the records, but if you look at the results and how they play, it’s actually NADAL who is the one-dimensional grinder with zero ability to play true attacking tennis.
His entire game revolved around being left handed and hitting high topspin, high net clearance forehands to his opponent’s BH side OVER AND OVER. Uncle Toni is brilliant for making Nadal play left handed even though he’s naturally a righty. If you watch a Nadal vs Federer match, the entire match is pretty much him moonballing to Fed’s backhand over and over until he finally makes an error. Skill wise, he is the least impressive great player I have ever seen. His forehand technique is the opposite of textbook and his serve is an absolute joke compared to Roger’s or even Novak’s. If he was right handed he would win like 3 grand slams

@@Mark-ut5oq Calm down, man. Some people aren't ready to read this..
@@Mark-ut5oq I agree with a lot of this its true Nadal is more one dimensional with the heavy reliance on clay. However lets not pretend Novak would win a lot on true "fast" courts. The surfaces have been continuously slowed down over the years to the point where what people think is "fast" now is actually incredibly slow compared to what was fast before. The only one of the 3 old enough to experience those truly "fast" courts and the one with the aggressive game style to be successful on them was Fed.
Without a doubt, it is the most important match in Roger's professional history
The most important match in Fed’s career didn’t even involve him, it was the match between Soderling and Nadal. Also I would say the next most important match in his career was Wimbledon 2019, if he won that he would still be in the goat debate and would have a decent enough case for it, especially in comparison to Nadal
@@mikemoggerson6651The fourth round match, you mean.
You even can see him crying
@@mikemoggerson6651 absolutely right
@@mikemoggerson6651Arguable, could be, but honestly Djokovic is 5-6 years younger than Federer, and Federer was almost 37 on that final. The difference in age between these guys can make a huge impact imo. If you look at it Federer has reached 5 RG finals and only won 1, all due to Nadal.
I remember watching this live on my laptop - and the Wi-Fi cut out right on match point.
😂
Cant believe this was 14 years ago. I still remembwr everything. Where i was, how ot felt, who i was with when watching this...
Once in a lifetime opportunity and he went for it. This is one of the happiest moments of my life as a tennis fan. That day Federer equaled both Agassi and Sampras by achieving a career grand slam and reaching the 14 singles slam titles mark. One month later, he was standing alone at the top.
Thanks for so much happiness Roger
Why is this entire match not available online. Come, Roland Garros. it's a 14 year-old match and Roger's been retired for 1 1/2 years. Throw us a bone!
Nobody loved the game of tennis more than Roger Federer. At 13:00 you can see true emotion. And I'll always remember him for that. Thank you Roger for the unforgettable moments.
Really unforgettable moments.. like serving for the match up 40-15 at USOpen 2011 Semifinal, epic. Then serving for the match in 2019 Wimbledon Final with double Championship point! Even more Epic! :)
@@mambi74 What's the point of this comment?

@@mambi74 Yeah, what’s the point of this comment?
@@unowen7591 he was trying to be funny and failed, that’s all there is to ir
Thanks for this. Always enjoy watching Federer play. Graceful as always.
It's not visible in the video but just after the point giving him match point, Federer was overwhelmed by the emotion and started crying. I remember it vividly, it's a very brief shot but you can see it. And I remember I cried too.
Whoever took the time to edit this, thank you. What a perfect game of tennis. Even the loser can look back on it with timeless pride.
I've seen other edits where a player wins and there's no highlights of the other player. There wasn't much for Soderling in the first set, but you could see how well he was playing in the 2nd and 3rd, set. He had a game plan and it worked reasonably well, but Roger was being Roger, and the rain/humidity and the adaptation to it must have also impacted them.
Thank you very much for sending this video. 🔥👏☝️
This is no doubt still the most important match that define greatness for Roger Federer.
❤
No it isn't
A historic win and perhaps Roger’s most brilliant tiebreaker ever
This day is the most important in Federer career
tennis is just a game and i know it but roger federer was the best that ever played that game i enjoyed watching roger play for many years, he had a special talent
Best ever ? Have you forgot the current number 1 ? Look we all have favourite players I also prefer to watch Roger over many other players however you can't deny that the stats speak for themselves for Novak doesn't however at any point take away the greatness of Roger Federer but however he was never able to beat Rafa in Paris which probably the big dissapointment in his career.
A great moment of the tennis history
Roger is also an expert of clay. He was 5 times finalist of French open. Back then, Rafa was unbeatable in clay. But you have to remember that, Rafa was also the ONLY one who can beat Roger on clay.
Didn't Djokovic also beat him on clay in 2021? Novak was the only one who stopped him from a 15thRG, Novak is still very hard to beat on clay, we shall see what happens this year.
the 🐐humiliated him in 2012 RG
B/c of Nadal, Roger is vastly underrated for his excellence on clay - and he was just as graceful on the red dirt as any other surface.
@@pauljohnson6019 Why do you Djokovic people always have to show up in videos that have nothing to do with Djokovic? It's the symptom of the most insecure people who have to keep waving their arms around for attention - don't forget me!
@@orchidpanda2253 why do you Federer fans have to lie in videos about facts and unable to accept that Federer is not in top 5 of all time?
Such a special moment for Roger. ❤🥉
Greatest of all time! No doubt.
is Novak. #idemo
😅😅😅😅🤣😂😂😂
The Serbians, of the world, would be angry at your comment.
Waited so long to watch his grand slam complication from official channel.
Soderling was so unfortunate. He beat Nadal and lost to Federer, the in 2010 beat Federer and lost to Nadal.
The story of all those playing in the big 3 era: Berdych, Tsonga, Soderling etc. You take one out with the match of your life, but you still have one or two to go. Del Potro will be glad to have got one in 2009
@@subarashifoundation So true
Well, only Novak beat Nadal and won RG, twice (+ another but lost to Wawrinka)
@@kidpagronprimsank05 finally a true recognition to the most complete player ever
dude gets plenty of recognition. @@tsameerab
Great game by Roger. 😍
Never heard something like that from the fans in a tennis match. Everyone was for the 🐐
I WAS SO HAPPY😊 FEDERER FINALLY WON THE FRENCH OPEN. FEDERER WILL ALWAYS BE MY GOAT MALE TENNIS PLAYER A LONG SIDE OF PETE SAMPRAS.😊 BOTH ARE GOAT TO ME.
GOAT
Upload the full match please!
2009 RG was not the most important championship in Roger's career - hard to say there was one such title with a vast career like Federer's - but that his greatest rival, who was the only barrier to winning RG, cried with happiness for Roger when he finally won the title, just says it all. It was a day the whole tennis world rooted for Roger to lift the trophy and both Federer and Soderling handled it with grace. Unforgettable.
Quand Roger a accompli le career Grand Slam, moment historique
Crazy to think that if Nadal didnt exist, Federer and Djokovic would have multiple Calendar Grand Slams and probably over 30+ grand slams
I'm tired of this silly statement - if any one of those 3 had not existed, none of them may have even been motivated to reach at least 20 slams a piece. Why do you think Djokovic said, there would be no Djokovic without Federer and Nadal. That goes the same for the other two. Also "If if if doesn't exist" - Nadal.
im a roger fan and watch thiis match live i remember i jumped more than i can remember 😂😂😂😂 roger is legendary man ❤❤❤
롤랑가로스대회가 네개대회중 제일 테니스다운 면이 있어요 두번째가 윔블던 세번째 나머지대회
Its great to see ! Federer has always been an incredible player on clay ... But Rafa was always better !
Yeah, well same can be said on hc and grass, Rafa was always 2nd best to Roger and Novak, on hc.
Да,эпичная победа.А самое эпичное поражение Роджера это проигрыш Джоковичу на Уимблдоне 2019 с двух матчболлов на своей подаче.Я до сих пор не пережил то поражение,оно сидит занозой в моём сердце как будто это я проиграл тот финал
Tie break : 4 ace ! 😎 le GOAT !
the best
After 10 straight losses to Fed SODERLING SAID ENOUGH the next year!
He beat the top 2 at the French. The only other player to do so is no other than Novak. Unfortunately for Soderling, he couldn’t beat both in the same year and walk away with the title.
Super !
Roger Federer - an athlete and champion the likes of which we won't see again in any sport across the globe
Robin Soderling probably did Roger one of the biggest favor in Roger's tennis career . Had he not beaten Nadal in his absolute prime Federer would have never lifted the French Open trophy . I'm the biggest RF fan and its only right he wins the French open atleast once but let's be honest , chances Of RF beating Rafa on the French Open were slim to None
What an accomplishment
Well deserved, Rog 👏🦁#tenacité #persistance
Remonto contra haas y le gano a delpo en 5 sets. Sin dudar alguna fue el titulo mas especial de federer.
Exacto, estuvo tan cerca de caer ante Haas y un DelPo bien en salud era complicadísimo para Roger, como lo demostaría meses después en lo que era uno de "sus" torneos en ese entonces.
Años después y sabiendo cómo terminaba la historia no le quitó lo emocionante de ver este video.
Out of the great3, Roger was the most emotional 🥺🤘💪🐐
definitely, on the court he was very calm but when the match end, i think he express his emotions the most out of big3, nadal and djokovic was equally emotional i believe 😆
No thats Novak and it’s not even close
@@duncan3932Lol no, Djokovic isn’t emotional, he is impulsive
Yes, arrogant and impulsive
@@tricker14 He was not calm, he would go under. When he needed to scream, he compressed it inwards. And it usually made him play worse. He was the weakest mentally out of the big 3. And by quite a distance
Alternate title: Federer beating his biggest friend mercilessly
thats tennis at its highest level
❤❤❤
The most emotionally successful day of his career 😊
Roger had no better opportunity to win. He took advantage of her. "Win or die" situation
If they would have kept fast courts on US Open. He would have won more GS especially against Djocovic
2008 final match upload
To me this win ended the Federer/Sampras debate
What astonishes me is how Roger was able to hit through the court in the cold, rainy conditions.
Merci.
(Federer me manque)
Soderling deserved at least 2 or 3 slams. It's incredible how unlucky he was.
True, Soderling was an Awesome player. I Loved watching Him.
let me guess, hes underrated
what's the song used at the beginning?
his first and ONLY
Roger's best match in clay 👌
Federer manque terriblement au tennis …personne ne lave remplacera ..❤ c est pourquoi je regarde très souvent ces matchs un plaisir je ne m en lace pas ❤
Second most important match of Roger's career, after Soderling v Nadal earlier in this tournament 🙂
Federer struggled so much with nerves in both the 4th round and the semi I think his ability to overcome them in this match was more impressive than his level of tennis
Now it's time to upload nadal soderling in 2009 and 2010 please
Huuge, massive win for Rog..
Why not full match?
Soderling beat Rafa, Roger won the title, the following year roles reversed and Soderling beat Roger, Roger got the career GS, he was happy with that, Rafa smelt blood, his reaction the following year, against Soderling in the fanal, was like how dare you, and Rafa got his own back, I don't think he ever forgave Soderling for that defeat lol
Easiest match by far for Roger: such a demolition
Serving 4 aces in a tie-break is WILD, but Roger did it.
Робин❤
One of the worst days in my life. After Wimbledon 09 I was broken, cried when Pete’s record fell… 😔
Soderling is one of the unluckiest guys in tennis. Playing 2 consecutive RG finals, one of 2 tennis players who beat Nadal in RG and retired due to injury at the age of 27...
Why can't this be cast on TV screen, the way many matches can?

Did sodering have injuries?
Is there any Swedish player with a single handed backhand? The Borg school seems to run strong in this country.
Stefan Edberg for example
Joachim Johansson who reached no 9 ranking in 2005 also had a one handled backhand.
Federer was one of the best players ever.
Soderling does the impossible, beats Thanos Rafa on Chatrier, then gets destroyed by Federer in the final. I feel for the guy ngl. But was happy for Federer since he basically lost like 5 french finals in a row to Rafa

My prediction come back to me 🎉❤ Swiatek will win in hairline both congration Muchava is very strong against the tide ❤
Содерлинга и запомнят как человека, победившего Надаля в полуфинале того РГ и, фактически, подарившего Роджеру недостающего титула.
Thanks to Soderling that Federer could complete his career slam. Otherwise he would have lost to Nadal in final.

だれやねん
If you look at the french open runner up history, without Rafa, Roger would be the best red clay player at his prime.
This message is to all Nadal and Djokovic fans/fanboys: Say thank you to the ATP court makers that your guys won that many slams! If the playing conditions were still like in the 90s, Nadal would have 0 Wimbledon titles and Djokovic with a bit of luck 1 or 2. Back in those days, you couldnt even play form the baseline (even Borg and Lendl were forced to play serve and volley) since there were three factors together:
1) flat bouncing
2) very fast bouncing
3) bad bouncing
All these 3 conditions together were never there since 2004/05. And Nadal + Djokovic profited from it.
Playing conditions from the 90s, means:
Australian Open: Medium fast + medium bouncing
French Open: Slow + high bouncing
Wimbledon: Very fast + flat bouncing + bad bouncing
US Open: Very fast + medium bouncing
Federer prime > Djokovic/Nadal prime
Federer s game was simply the most complete from them all. Nadal and Djkovic are excellent players from the baseline, but not so much when forced to go on the net over and over again, something they never had to face!
Look Federer vs Sampras in Wimbledon 2001 and Federer vs Nadal in Rome 2006. He went 5 sets with the best grass courter ever (Sampras) in Wimbledon and 5 sets with the best clay courter ever (Nadal), and both matches were very close.
Beam a prime Djokovic or Nadal in Wimbledon 2001 and let them play against Pete. Sampras would beat both of them in 3 or 4 sets, no ground ralleys possible.
And beam a prime Sampras in 2006 and let him play Nadal on clay, Rafa would demoslih him in 3.
Federer s game 2003-2007: Best and most complete Tennis in history.
Buttom line:
The ATP court makers changed the history. They removed the pre 2002 Wimbledon playing conditions completely.
Sure they could have done it, but to make it even again they should have change the French Open playing conditinos, using small balls which with a very low bouncing. But they didnt do that.
Good try bro but your idol ended up 3rd in the race 😁
Je n'ai jamais compris pourquoi Federer ne faisait pas de meilleur score dans ses finales contre Nadal. Un complexe ??
The only French Open title he has or he is only a Grand Sampras.
CONSIDER Roger was on his 4th straight Paris final.... And we say clay was his WEAK surface!!! Those are SOME RESULTS for A WEAKNESS... I imagine every other player aluve would LOVE TO HAVE SUCH A WEAKNESS.... If Nadal weren't around, Roger would have many more GS.
Federer a zis : Mersi Robin pentru că la-i eliminat pe Nadal fiindcă așa am castigat singurul meu Roland-Garros
24, 22, 20 When push comes to shove, whichever way you dress this up is what really matters in the end
It's not all about Grand Slams, but that's only one part of the equation.
Federer never could defeat nadal here so this was the only way federer could win Roland garros. He owns soderling a huge lot
Never could defeat Nadal at RG, shouldn't be called the GOAT
A significant win, but not a classic match. Soderling vs Nadal was the match of the tournament, especially as Nadal had beaten him 6-2 6-1 2 weeks prior
Federer did not have it easy, despite what some people say
Credit to Roger and his team for implementing the drop-shot" into his arsenal.
One of the biggest reasons he was able to get his coveted French Open crown.
(Edit)
And, yes, Nadal fanboys...
Save your breath.
I already know what you're gonna say.
Nadal's fans are quite cool compared to Djokovic's ones
Hello algorythm friends!
if it wasn’t for Soderling, Federer wouldn’t even be near the goat debate. Federer never even touched Nadal on clay…
Nadal was virtually unbeatable at this tournament between 2005-2014. I see nothing embarrassing about Federer loosing to him so many times. I believe Federer would have also had a better chance if he faced the 2015-2016 version of Nadal in Federer's prime.
@@kofipokuantwi-boateng5446nah Nadal and Djokovic got feddy on lockdown
This is one of those moments where federer is an enemy of himself, if he had not been so stubborn and changed his racquet to the 97, it would probably give him an even playing field.
@@filthypleb9224do you think if federer exchanged racquets he still beats prime nadal on clay?
I dont understand what this has to do with Nadal or the GOAT debate, but you freaks will always find a way
