These aren't "2 people". If you chose to watch me and my main tennis partner hitting, then you'd be right -- you'd really have to love tennis. Federer and Thiem? At court level? A privilege.
Because his movement is in line with his momentum, his body is not contorted against his inertia. Djokovic is the opposite. Human gumby. It works for both. I've seen both players play up close. Djokovic's shots are harder to anticipate because he has so much leeway in how he can contort his body on command.
He lands on his split just when the other guy is hitting the ball, just a perfect rhythm. That's what I'm trying to pick up right now watching fed's practices.
absolutely. Roger is an artist. Thiem is a warrior. Tons to appreciate about both, but some people will naturally gravitate to certain qualities that they hold in higher esteem.
great! - I find most stunning he vicious velocity with which he decapitates (closest word in my fundus) his BH slices. these things land and bury themselves like mulls into the ground, like Graf´s but with even more !American twist", i.e. outward spin so that all his prey can do is (on his lucky day) see the death stalker coming early enough to somehow shovel it up. NASTY. imagine a ball popping whilst landing: that effect. Maybe THIS ONE he omits st. in order to make it a game and not an embarassment. Nothing to do with a decent flat slice; nothing to be done w/these "reversed Rafa-FHs" hit harder than any drive or topspin. Sadism.
You know someone is incredibly skilled at any art when they make it look effortless and simple. Every time I watch these kinds of practice videos I feel I can get on the court and emulate these professionals - only to realize how much training and practice it requires. And then some more. Just mesmerizing to watch these.
Even if you’re not fan of tennis you can still watch Fed and appreciate his greatness. Just flat out ridiculous how natural and pure this man is . Then he even has the confidence and class to purposely hit net shots in warm ups to make his opponent feel at ease. Out of this world
I love watching Federer, his tennis is practically perfect Dominic Thiem...he's a great up and coming talent. I hope to see him win a calendar GS, I think he will win each of the GSs
Footwork is key. Footwork + Solid Consistent Swing > Everything. If you want to improve but training takes a lot of time. Practice those two. Then supplement it with everyting else.
Who else spotted this hidden bit of Swiss sorcery? 👀 🧙🏼♂️ Behold @ 9:12 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 - Chatting with Luthi - No-look catch of Domi's slice T-serve with left hand - Still chatting with Luthi - Domi hits another T-serve with even more slice - Fred *swaps racquet to left hand* and *catches serve with his right*
Every time there’s a Federer practice video, people comment that they’ve never seen anything like it, nobody has ever played like this, he’s in unstoppable form. Then he gets knocked out by Grigor freakin’ Dimitrov.
Meilleur rendu lorsque vue derriere les joueurs car on prend conscience des effets que lorsque la camera est en contre plonge .. 👏👏 pour les protagonistes 😍😍
Why can’t tennis matches show these camera angles once in a while???? You can’t appreciate the artistry of these players from the way matches are televised today
Amazing video 👏👏
Anyone else find this ultimately therapeutic
no
Yesss
Yes
Yes
Yes
You know you love tennis when you enjoy just watching 2 people rally back and forth
I think I enjoy this more than watching a full match haha
then you know you understand tennis than the average enthusiast when you know the quality of this rally isn't easy
@@bensonnyborja2008 I know right. They make it look easy.

federer's game is truly a thing of beauty
fredettaboutit
That was unnecessary
he doesn't hit the ball, he caresses it
This is a much more interesting view to watch than the typical television “birds eye” coverage we see in tournaments. You actually feel amongst it.
Hope soon they use this PoV with more frequency
@@visualdajoy they use it it some rallies from time to time
Man Federer’s movement looks like liquid. Just so aesthetically pleasing

Djokovic's shots are harder to anticipate because he has so much leeway in how he can contort his body on command.
geepeeone where I can read more about that?
That's part of his genius- fluidity of movement.
I think he has the perfect body for tennis and his timing and strokes are sublime.
I would rather watch him than any other player.
He lands on his split just when the other guy is hitting the ball, just a perfect rhythm. That's what I'm trying to pick up right now watching fed's practices.
Why is this so satisfying
That's exactly what I thought
@@koppenknyul7113 great minds think alike(including me)
They are always balanced
Because it's what tennis should look like, but most of us can't produce anything like that
Because 1. fed is so much relaxed in his strokes,truly effortless 2. And the balls is always returned,continuity
Thiem is a fantastic player, but something has to be said about the way Roger cuts up every single ball like butter. The man's an artist.
absolutely. Roger is an artist. Thiem is a warrior. Tons to appreciate about both, but some people will naturally gravitate to certain qualities that they hold in higher esteem.
Well said. Fed j bends the ball to his will. It's j that talent.

Roger is poetry in motion
When Federer practices, there are more people in the stadium than in some Grand Slam Games
I was there! My dad and I were so excited to see the GOAT.🐐🐐🐐
Even if you’re not fan of tennis you can still watch Fed and appreciate his greatness. Just flat out ridiculous how natural and pure this man is . Then he even has the confidence and class to purposely hit net shots in warm ups to make his opponent feel at ease. Out of this world
until "is." your comment makes perfect sense; the rest is silence. or some antipsychotic pill.
Thiem is not his opponent. They don’t do warm-ups like that at pro-level. Hitting net shots to make opponent feel at ease? No.
@@jensmaass9056 r/whoosh
Can actually watch this all day. Poetry in motion.
9:13 Federer is just so elegant and effortless with everything he does
Roger is truly a marvel. He changed the entire game for the better.
Best ATP practice videos out there, as always.
such a piece of art, the paradigm of aesthetics.
Federer’s tennis is unbelievably amazing!
The most gifted and the hardest worker, both with beautiful one handed backhands. Both really well liked and respected on the tour. Inspirations.
It's so therapeutic, I could fall asleep to this.
I can literally watch this all day
I can watch this all day!! Thanks!
Sometimes a good practice is the highlight of the tournament.and i've seen many to know.
So fun to watch........ Federer is a like a balerin of tennis, his game is so beautiful and effortless... living legend.
Roger's backhand slice is godly.
I love watching Federer, his tennis is practically perfect
Dominic Thiem...he's a great up and coming talent. I hope to see him win a calendar GS, I think he will win each of the GSs
They both demonstrate excellent form and mechanic during practice. I watched a couple games of Them, he hit the ball really hard.
Amazing video quality - thanks for creating this video!
We should look into getting this video technology :)
josh w the newer cell phone can do it. Actually think mine can but it takes up too much memory.
The most talented tennis player with the best technique ever.
Thank you for this! 🙏
Fed is tennis's "only true genius". A *never-before-never-again phenomenon!*
this is really relaxing
Never again such grace and beauty. And on the other side is a player who also looks amazing on the court...
Federer hits the ball so beautifully....
Their rhythm is so hypnotic.
Oh how I love these two!
Federer is the most aesthetic sportsperson of all time. Outrageous
Great video love the editing.
My fav tennis practice video❤
When i have insomnia i watch federer practice videos. Good night~
I feel like Federer drove Thiem to this practice match, then realized they were playing each other.
So relaxing, better than rain sounds!
Fantastic tennis
Tis a thing of beauty.
So smooth, so elegant, so effortless!
calm, in control, relaxed, very professional~~ :)
Those slices... they look so scary. :D Amazing video!
He makes art playing the game, even in practice. This is why is the best player in the history for me, he makes art playing tenis.
Love all your videos

More fans watching Fed practice than a Djocovic match lol.that says alot.
No one likes Djokovic. 😂
this is hypnotizing
the almost effortless generation of pace and spin, unbelievable level of tennis
There are more fans here than virtually any women's match.
Fed being so relaxed and Thiem's slightly exaggerated form makes it look like Federer is coaching Thiem
so effortless
My two fav players... 🇦🇹❤️🇨🇭
Smooth as silk. Like a hand of God.
So soothing watching this 😀
Love you Roger
love Roger~
13:09 Kick!
Mesmerizing
Wish I was this relaxed like Federer
linton blaise my problem too. Looks like he has so much time.
That slice backhand 🤩
The GOAT and The Dominigga💪💪💪
Lovely to watch pro tennis without commentary
ずっと見てられる〜♪
they are truly firing canon balls at each other
So many fans watching them practice
can anyone make a playlist of these long rally sessions of training? this is so satisfying to watch...
Genius at work.
Very nice video ❤
13:59 Roger´s two handed backhand
He does one at 9:39
Federer's forehand is purely artistic
Watchng Audiences’s head keep following the ball..left..right...satisfying
2 things:
Roger's serve is the most glorious shot in tennis.
Roger's calves are insane.
I agree. His serve is the most elegant part of the prettiest game of all time. His game is just gorgeous to watch.
@@gqnelly prettiest game of all time? Ever watched Nadal play mate? It's brutal to watch
Ben Parsons huh? Nadal’s game is opposite of pretty (not saying in a bad way).
@@goxaviergo11 exactly
@@benparsons4979 honestly speaking Nadal makes Tennis look way hard than it is while it’s opposite for Roger.
Awesome content.
The most effortless strokes with the most power/spin ever
The two classiest men in tennis
Federer the footwork master
When you watch someone at the top of their craft, it's just pure art.
Footwork is key. Footwork + Solid Consistent Swing > Everything. If you want to improve but training takes a lot of time. Practice those two. Then supplement it with everyting else.
Thiem's backhand is so fundamentally sound. Wish to be half as good as his form one of these days.
Who else spotted this hidden bit of Swiss sorcery? 👀 🧙🏼♂️
Behold @ 9:12
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
- Chatting with Luthi
- No-look catch of Domi's slice T-serve with left hand
- Still chatting with Luthi
- Domi hits another T-serve with even more slice
- Fred *swaps racquet to left hand* and *catches serve with his right*
three great tennis players; Federer, Thiem, and Massu ...
You forgot Ivan...
this is therapy
que claseeee
That one handed backhand 🔥
God, I miss Federer on the tour.
9:15 - Look at that spin...caused by new ball, new felt, new racket strings....and that side spin serve...
his athleticism is underrated fr
Look how Thiem hits his backhands with open stances.
So relaxing....
This never gets old. Nobody hits like this. All of his shots from a tennis gods textbook even the shanks look cool. smh
Hypnotic

Dominic has all the tennis tools to be a Slam Winner ..now it's all mental
the SPIN n curvature of Feds forehand is insane!
Beautiful ground strokes. Mwuah
