    I've always been a big Federer fan, but watching this, I finally realized why I appreciate HIS particular greatness more.
    Watch Nadal or Murray or Djokovic. When they're playing their best, they make great gets and hit amazing shots and are running themselves red in the face.
    Federer does all of that. But when he's playing like this it just looks effortless. There's an element of chess (strategy) in his play where he's 3-4 "moves" (shots) ahead and the final shot is just some little volley.
    There's a grace and fluidity that other players don't have.

      What separates him from anybody else ever is the effortlessness of his game, and his amazing ability to take the hit the ball so cleanly on the rise. In terms of problem solving and overall build-up of the point though, both Nadal and Djokovic are ahead of him. Not saying Federer is not an all-time great in that department too, but his two rivals do edge him in that regard.

      His ass was kicked even in 2019 Finals.
      Top Federer was out of reach for Nole. Get peace with this notorious fact.

It does make some sense though...When Novak is playing "magically" (as you described some of RF's performances), he reminds of Fed in his heyday, actually. Like everything just seems to work, even very low percentage shots...like the court and game become some kind of canvas and the performance approaches artistry. Novak's been playing like that (except his loss to Zverev...disappointing, that was).

    All of these matches are amazing, but for me, the craziest was 6-0 6-0 against Gaston Gaudio. Please remember, at this time, GG was a top 10 player, and this happened at the year end finals. Roger had gone 81-3. Read that again... 81 wins, and only 3 losses, so far in the year. His form was crazy.

    • @jooohan
      @jooohan 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Gaudio was a decent clay courter but Roger could deal with these with relative ease. You can see it here in this video within the first few minutes (Andy Murray match)...when Roger is on, moving the ball around and putting it in uncomfortable positions (which is what old-school clay courters do) does not work. You get outfoxed first and then smoked on first decent put-away ball.

      It's either Federer's age or the court speed to justify why he isn't winning that much anymore. Guess what, it's the same for everybody so adapt to it and get used to it. I don't care if the court speed was slowed down a little bit, otherwise we wouln't get much "tennis" as there would be so many aces and service winners, even more than now which is still a lot. Of course the serve is part of the game but i prefer medium to longer rallies than just serving. There used to be rallies in the 70's but the raquets and the physical aspect of the game were very different so if cou played on such fast courts today with the improvements of raquets and everything there would barely be any rally.

    Even as a Djokovic fan, but more importantly a tennis fan, Roger Federer is still God's greatest gift to the game. Yes my GOAT is Djokovic, but Roger is by far the most influential person for tennis. The fact that this guy just has sheer talent to still go on to R64 in slams at the age of 40 is absolutely incredible. Unpopular opinion, 2015 Fed was one of Fed's best attacking years and only fell short to peak Novak. If you ever read this comment please do watch the 2015 semi final between him and Andy Murray. It's a pleasure to the eye to witness such fine art.

    For me, he is without a doubt the best tennis player to ever play the sport and one of the best athletes the world has ever seen. He is up there with athletes like M. Ali, Michael Jordan, Michael Schumacher and others. He revolutionised the sport in so many ways and inspired a whole generation of tennis players who try to copy his undeniable movement fluidity and surgical shot precision today. Since his retirement is very close, It has been an honour to see the legend of Roger Federer in the making.

      06-07 Fed lost to Nadal 5 times in a row. He was desperate against nadal, and Djo beat 07 Fed in Montreal finals. Do not forget.
