2:58:26 that face expression tells you everything about the shot that is about to come.
The tournament, the opponent, the crowd, the double matchpoint, what a moment.
For me that is the definition of Djokovic.
Greatest Return of all time after that face expression... just stunned whole crowd.
Agree
what a moment in history. its turned the djokovic federer rivalry on its head- if there ever was one. federer has been haunted since.
Glad my warm blooded latinos understand serbian mentality
I watched it live but didn't remember Djokovic's expression before the return. It was obvious Djokovic was psyching himself up for a big shot, and totally refutes Federer's whiny statement that it was a "lucky shot". And he totally read that wide serve and just caned it.
This is one of the iconic moments in tennis history. Djokovic is a mental monument and this underlined that legend.
If only fed had the same mental toughness. Hed have 25 majors
Indeed, as a Fedal fan, I feel nothing but respect for Novak Djokovic as a tennis player. I also feel he's a bit misunderstood as a person (even though he has done some thinks I don't like, nobody's perfect, even Roger and Rafa have made mistakes in their lives). Also, I don't feel like Roger and Novak don't like each other, I know there used to be tensions between their respective families but I don't feel themselves are tensioned with one another.
Yes
What are you on about? Djokovic isn’t going to marry you
Djokovic is just a brutal narcissist. This helps him a lot.
This is the match where Djokovic became a legend. Absolutely iconic
This is were he damaged Roger's brain.. As if this wasn't in the back of Roger's mind when he was 40-15 again in Wimbledon and blew it.. LOL
12 years after this match, the GOAT has been crowned.
This lives is your head only, there was many times where federer was up 40.15 to nole after that and won it! and novak has to put up a winner also, that's no breaking someone mind lol... @@mambi74
@@mambi74 What a pathetic comment.
Djokovic is more dangerous when he is angry.
This audience annoyed him
I like when he answered about the audience. He said "the crowd was great" meaning he knows how much they favor Federer or Nadal or anybody.
Ok?
@@strikerbowls791 ok?? That’s the whole point…. Those haters are always against him and he’s at 20 majors now. Sweet sweet victory if you asked me 😄
@@song7087y'all are always crying for Novak 😂. Like crowds aren't allowed to root for anybody 😂
That forehand at two match points down and the gesture that got the crowd going was awesome! Way to go Nole.
What time?
@@danaizadpanah1257 Here you go. 2:58:19
Look, in that situation only Nole could have done that I bet u 100%
For real though
@@nathangold5759 Djokovic definitely has a wild side to him that neither Nadal or Federer has, sort of like a daring poker player who goes all-in with nothing.
To me, this is by far federers biggest choke. In 2010, he did have two match points, but Djokovic just went nuclear in those two points and started hitting shots that simply have no answer. Whereas in 2011, Novak did hit the greatest return of all time (hard to argue with that), however federer still had ANOTHER match point after, forehand straight into the net, then a double fault then eventually he got broken. This is a much bigger choke than Wimbledon 2019 and us open 2010 as Novak just went for shots during those match points. Have to respect Novak’s mental strength in these matches (Nadal fan!).
Also, the face novak makes before hitting the return has to be the most boss move in the history of tennis. Crowd against him, on the verge of defeat and he’s like ‘okay you want me to lose ? Fine’ and the smile before the second match point as well. Respect to all these legends.
Yes I think he was saying, "If I'ma go outta here, I'ma do it in style," and if Nole had gone on to lose then he would go up to the net and congratulate Roger and then give the crowd a nice smile as he walks off court.
Here's how I would rank Federer's 3 "chokes" against Novak:
2011 (definitely a choke; no arguments needed)
2019 (you could argue that it was a choke or that it wasn't a choke)
2010 (not a choke in the slightest; besides it was Novak serving)
Biggest choke against Djokovic, but I might say that 2018 Wimbledon vs Anderson or 2018 Indian Wells vs Del Potro might be worse
@@viksinha5410 yes I agree 100%. It still confuses me to this day why federer was so affected by the Novak return as if he didn’t have another match point on his serve to the point where he called it a lucky shot in the press conference.
Yh, those losses are very close to this in terms of choke, but I think this is just another level for someone like federer. Just to completely breakdown on the brink of victory and ending arguably the greatest season in tennis history (Novak’s 2011).
@@MrCoDeYY True but do keep in mind: this was Novak Djokovic in 2011. It’s better to lose to 2011 Djokovic than freakin Kevin Anderson and Juan Martin Del Potro. Federer should be beating those guys with ease.
@@viksinha5410 also true. But Wimbledon is where most upsets happen because of how effective serving is. So it’s kinda understandable. But I feel like in the future when nadal and Djokovic surpass federer (which they probably will) he’s going to look back at all these missed opportunities and wonder what if

Hahaha 40-15 choker
@@lanacastillo49 he didnt choke, Djokovic outplayed him on both match points.
Haha yeah but there's no denying anymore. I've accepted the fact 😆😆
I remember watching this as a 15 year old. I absolutely loved how Novak fought back and had to fight to win the crowds love in the 5th set.. Clapping for his faults? Geez.. I was on the edge of my seat but I somehow felt he wasn’t going to go down after fighting so hard to level the match..
Djoko is the GOAT.
My son started to love tennis and Novak on 2019 after the 15-40 in Wimbledon, he was 9 YO and we were watching the match on the border of the couch...amazing....he is a NOLE fan now as his mum....

The only thing left for Djokovic to do now is take a slam from Federer after he’s actually won it.
Always 15:40
2:58:46 most badass moment in tennis history
Thought exactly the same
That's what I came for
Federer's graceless bitterness being a sore loser about it afterwards made it even better.

@@ambikeyamohapatra2482 Lol. That struck a chord? They've only met twice at the AO; in 2012, Rafa was extremely close to winning, in 2019 he didn't have a chance as he was coming back (yet again) from injury and 4+ months without competition and Novak played the match of his life. But if you want to talk hard court majors, incidentally, Rafa is 2-1 vs Novak at the USO. And yes, probably everyone fears facing Novak at the AO. :)

roger iron nerves at least he saved 7 matchpoints at 38 yrs of age in the ao
I think that 3-5, 15-40, 5th set defines all Djokovich's greatness. Coming from behind two sets, facing two match-points down, all the crowd chanting for Roger, returning that incredible ball and still receiving NO support from the crowd, and above that, winning the match. If that is not greatness, what it is? 2:58:18
That was a lucky shot, Novak didn't care if it went in or not
@@JL-fh4qw Too true. The Djoker said himself in the press conference that he got lucky. But there's no point in banging in about it...since everyone who isn't a Federer fan simply *_revels_* in the schadenfreude of the Fed losing after having MPs. It's not easy for us Fed fans to understand or cope with (especially knowing that this match, like 8-9 out of every 10 matches against the Djoker, was on the Fed's racquet), but that's way the cookie's crumbled and it's hurt Fed fans more than perhaps the Fed will ever know. Like a very clear-eyed Fed fan said, Fed ought to have won Wimbledon 2019 not for himself so much as FOR HIS FANS. I'm afraid he did them a great disservice that day by losing.
That said, I do believe that if (a *huge* IF) his knee heals well enough for him to get back to, say, about 90% of his 2017 form, he'll win at least one more major - simply because it's time the luck went with his fans (and him) rather than against them. 😊
@@JL-fh4qw ok, that one was lucky shot. What about rest of the match? All pure luck? Lets be real for a moment and give respect to Novak Djokovic.
@@JL-fh4qw Luck is for those prepared. Go out and see if you can replicate that shot by sheer "luck"

This match changed the career of Novak. The courageous return winner off Feds first match point speaks volumes of what Novak is going to achieve. Bravo Novak!
In a certain way this match changed also Roger's carrier. I think that never left his mind. And is still inside him. Of course...what happened 8 years later (similar 40:15 story) gave him the rest.
with 8 year difference I don't thinks lives in his mind, he actually won novak in the next Wimbledon after this! it only novak fans who think is somewhat of achievement, but far from true,, how about put in the equation the age gap @@begyu
What's going on inside your head, man?
Are you serious?? Yes...he won against Djokovic at Wimbledon (2012) after this US Open match. But...who cares about this, considering the epic defeates that followed in 2014 & 2015 and especially in 2019 (the famous 40:15 story)! Just imagine...having 2 (TWO!!) match points at your most favourite and world's famous tournament, and you get smashed like a kid. This is like having a penalty in WC football final, last action of additional time...and missing it! Federer never really recovered from this.
@@carlosdflorentin9873
1:33:44 - For those (esp. Federer) claiming _that_ forehand return was "lucky"...I present Exhibit A.
That was a second serve
@@archiesutherland6127 Your point being?
@@jeffgachihi8225 ,it was way easier to hit that forehand compared to the match point one which was off a first serve
@@archiesutherland6127 The point remains that it is the exact same return. So can't be luck.
@@archiesutherland6127 That second serve was 97 mph, that's only 11 mph slower than the one at the end, plus it had a bigger spin and was better placed. So that return was pretty much the same difficulty to pull off, if there is any difference it's very minor. FYI, aces on second serve do happen, assuming that any second serve is automatically easy to return is a pretty simpleton take.
Fed is at championship point, 15-40
Djokovic: aww that's cute :)
I do believe I love you :)
Its actually the semi - final so its not yet championship point. You probly mean match point.
@@altruism8637 that can also be the reference after Wimbledon 2019 final ;)
2:58:44 THAT forehand!!! Federer and others attempted to put the shot down to luck, that Nole took a carelessly large cut at the ball and basically fluked it, but as you can see the forehand is simple evidence of his mentality, namely, continue to play at high level absolutely regardless of situation, doesn't seem to feel pressure.
I can see why Federer said that but it's because Novak knows on big points Federer likes to go wide and then try and hit a forehand into the open court. It's just that Novak anticipated it.
The shot is iconic. What makes it even better are the moments leading up to it after the previous point for Federer.
Djokovic's face, how he is dealing with double match point, everyone's anticipation of Federer going to win and then that.
BOOM
One of THE tennis moments
3:16:35
He said himself he was lucky. The gamble paid off and he deserved the win, but that was about as much talent as it was luck, Federer on the other hand choked so hard he never defeated Novak in a GS game again except for Wimbledon 2012.
@@nils1953 Well I think both you and Glen Chun can be right on this one. Maybe Djokovic said in his mind "If Roger goes wide, I'll slap it cross court as hard as I can. Let's see what happens." And then he was lucky it went in.
This match will forever be remembered as 40-15 and then it went how it went
Even us open 2010 was 40-15
what about wimbledon 2019 40-15

@@duskopopov0074this year he won 3, 7 remaining😊!
As a life long Nole’s fan, it’s so satisfying to watch the 5th set when Nole was 2 match point down. I feel sorry for Roger, but at the same time I’m so proud of Nole
Wise and nice words, you totally deserve to be called a true tennis and Nole fan :)
never be sorry for someone who owns airplane.
I am not sorry for Federer at all. The way Federer "congratulated" Djokovic for the win in the 2011 US Open Semifinals Press Conference was very arrogant. Also the crowd support is heavily in favor of Federer. I am glad Federer lost, Federer and his fans deserve it.
As much as I admire Federer as a player, I think Rafa and Nole are way more humble as people. But I always root for Nole because he doesn't get the crowd support that he deserves. He's never been respected by tennis fans since day one on tour.
@@pacifist1360 Boris, i agree 100%! You say all👍
My favorite Novak match ever. Really put him on the map to be an all time great. Was going for his 3rd slam of the year. This is back when Federer really did not like Novak. Hard to believe it has been 10 years. Watched this match while sitting in a bar outside of Pittsburgh. Out of around 12-14 people who were really watching the match, my girlfriend and I plus 2 girls from Greece were the only people pulling for Novak. The Greek girls were really getting rowdy. A real up and down match. 2-0 then 2-2 than Federer serving for the match with 2 match points. Electric crowd. Simply tennis at it's best.
King Djokovic The Greatest Of All Times Tennis Player!
Wooow... listen to that crowd in the 5th set... Similar to all their Wimbledon finals and we all know the outcomes...
Imagine playing against your opponent and 99% of the crowd and you STILL win... 18 Grand Slams!
I've always been saying that each Djoko Slam is worth twice! The real GOAT!

Maybe 23 and ON ROLAND GARROS, this man is undefinable
1. This was a classic match. 2. How on earth did Fed lose? 3. The 2011 USO is possibly Djoker's greatest GS win, given his unreal comeback in the pulsating 4 hour SF backed up by his victory in the brutal 4+ hour final, both of which were against 2 of the GOATs, and the fact that it was the last major title crowning his stellar 2011.
I certainly believe that RG 2021 is right up there with USO 2011 now!
Just as insane.

@@mainemceachern1521 I shed a tear when he applauded the crowd put his head down and walked away. Mentally he was prepared to fight in the fourth and maybe 5th but his body gave up on him. 😔
Novak's 2012 AO win over Rafa is his greatest GS win ever. Novak has come back from down 40-15 three times vs. Fed (2010 USO, 2011 USO, 2019 Wimbledon). Those wins are as much about showing Roger's mental fragility as Novak's mental toughness. Novak's 6-hour 2012 AO Final slugfest with Rafa after Novak went 5 hours and 5 sets with Murray in the semis plus the fact Novak had one day fewer rest than Rafa is the greatest mental AND physical display in the history of tennis.
Federer and Nadal hate nothing more than losing to Djokovic, they’d rather lose to the world #100 than lose to him.
Same with Djokovic dude , none of them likes to lose to the other two
Hahah.. obviously all those lost matches were one of the greatest matches in the tennis history. Too painful to lose after hard fought 4-5 hrs.

Novak can neutralize Roger's biggest strength...his serve. Roger has perhaps the best serve in the game (combining accuracy and power) but Djoker knows how to find an opening and exploit it.

2:58:39 When Djokovic became a BEAST
2:58:47 The iconic moment that changed history
The return winner on Federer's first serve at 40-15 was the game changer. Novak's face before that point said it all. It was all downhill from there.
After Novak hit that otherworldly forehand winner down two match points, you could visibly see Roger deflate like an old tire... The match was basically over right there. Incredibly gutsy shot by Djokovic. If it goes out, match over. That's what makes him so different from anyone else, the way he manages to play so freely in the most intense, pressure filled moments. Never seen anything like it and I've been a tennis fan for a long time.

First, there was Nadal who made Roger break down and cry, for beating him at his turf at Wimbledon and then at AO. Then here comes Novak, who gave him nightmares and sleepless nights in New York and England.
Federer..Nadal..big players,but this man Yoker Nole is best.He change history of tenis soon :)
2:58:28 boss moment !
Start of Novak’s era
2019 is heart-breaking, but this one is the biggest choke of all time. King of UE solidified.
GOAT .. he is simply the best player of all time! No1e
Roger is a choker no 1. Novak rules. Go Nole ..get 25 slams! :-)
Try 20.

@@fundhund62 20 and counting fedaltard.
@@lesa8315 I consider Roger Federer to be the most overrated tennis player of all time. If that makes me a "fedaltard", very well!

2:58:32 - Moment the beast was born
Classical match. Hard to imagine, that tennis-match can be better than this. Both players were amazing.
The end of Federer Usopen campaign and the beginning of Djokovic's dominance.
I bet the naysayers will say Federer is already an old man at 30.
Sorry, nobody said that.
@@johnnychiou2008 sorry
Have seen 100s of comments discrediting nole's achievements... Citing rogers age.
@@johnnychiou2008 Dude, people were calling Federer "old" in 2009 after Rafa beat him at AO, to somewhat downgrade his win.
And here Novak at 36 is beating the next 20 yo rafa
Lost first set after tie break...
Went two sets down, on a verge to loose in straight sets..
Two match points down in the final set..
Thrashed peak Rafa in next match..
Nole u r a monster, beast, villain and the list goes on
Thank you for existing Novak...
Whenever I put myself in a tense situation I think about u gets a boost of havoc of confidence...
The real badass in Tennis, Great Novak Djokovich
Djokovic is king of all situations coming up from two set down show the class fedreer can't handle pressure he just leave the match when Djokovic breaks in last set
roland garros 2021 :D
As a Federer fan I refused to acknowledge Novak’s incredible nerve at the time. But just like his game, Novak has won over me through sheer grit. I will show my son the grace of Roger, but want him to have the courage of Djoker.
💯 say no more!
Brilliantly put. Talent comes a distant second to guts and grit in the game of life.
I watched from Botswana 🤸🏿♀️
Thank you for this moments Nole. When I look this, I feel like I am winning this poents.
Stop saying Nole
because, he is the best,,no 1 in the world all the time,,,
I agree Roger is the best
which one? They're number one and two for weeks at No. 1
In 2010 people just thought Federer had bad luck, but in 2011 people realised that Federer really had a problem with the numbers 40 and 15.
2:04:46 epic match

Djokovic has been No 1 in 2011, and now in 2023 also is No 1... What a player, whole generation will cross in that era, but Novak still No 1, my thing for all time is No 1...
Thats what his name says: NO1E - > No 1 Ever
Novak Djokovic vs Roger Federer always great matches
Nole.
Destroyed Federer, his fans and crowds.
Absolutely.. I was one of them
Roger really has glass nerves when playing with the likes of Rafa & Novak at the big stage.
40-15 episode 2
Here we go
@@gematria_truth episode 1 was us open 2010
And then we have episode 3 at Wimby 2019
@@jonathanlow1244 At this point, I think Roger has PTSD every time he has 40-15 match point against Novak in a Grand Slam. When he was up 40-15 during Wimby 2019, I had a creeping feeling that it would happen again. And it did. I really hope Roger breaks the cycle the next time he faces Novak in a grandslam. Miraculously, in 2017, Roger was able to get Nadal out of his head and start beating him in all of their non-clay matches. Nadal hasn't beaten Roger on a non-clay surface since 2014. I was hoping that Roger would be able to do the same to Novak and get Novak out of his head, but it looks like Novak is living there, rent-free. If Roger can put together another magical run at Wimby, beat Novak, and win his 21st slam, it would be truly magical.
@@briandtnguyen I think Roger will not win 21st grand slam at the age of almost 40 years old.
I was there at the stadium . Unforgettable experience that has grown sort of mythical over the years.
Thanks for uploading this gem of a match
to be 2 sets down and to win it all against federer in his ultimate prime at a GS says it all, No1e is the greatest ever!
This was also a sweet little revenge for the 2011 French open semi final
Even to this day I had the chills watching the match again. Then I said to myself: “calm down, you know how it ends!” 🙈
I remember watching this match. facing match point with Fed serving for the match, Novak nodded his head as if to say, ok, this is it, don't panic....time to bare down and get to work. what does he do, he fires off a blistering return saving match point, and follows that up with another deep return with pace getting it to deuce......the look on Federer's face spoke volumes.. He was done.....that'swhen you knew, this young kid from Serbia with the heart of a lion was going to be something special..... just a great player..Go Nole!
This is the reason why Djokovic is the GOAT.
Plays the IMPORTANT points BETTER than ALL of THEM
Legend killing performance from nole 🔥
Надо прививку было сделать ! А он подумал ,что он Бог и ему все можно .
Diddy was in the crowd. It was beautiful
Diddy was not also in the crowd but also in Novak box
