The lob against Agassi is without a doubt the most amazing get I’ve ever seen. It was simply impossible. Roger had to bend the laws of physics to make it happen. But this wizardry is one reason Roger is the GOAT. Great video, as usual! Thanks for posting.
It was incredible but it was a fluke, like the last resort shot. Most others are deliberate shots hit with intention of lobbing the opponent. Against Gassi (as I call him) it was more like a get than a lob, it just turned into a lob ( says all abt Gassi’s height ) 🤣
Roger Federer, is just the greatest tennis player of all times. He has not only a good serve, but a great backhand, forehand, position on court, speed, great lobs, you name it.
Roger was in pure badass mode in that match! He had a back injury and Murray was playing out of his mind, yet he produced some of the most memorable piece of controlled shotmaking in the most casual way possible!
Without doubt, Federer is the most talented, beautiful, vesatile player ever to play tennis. Variety of shots he plays, is far more than combined of Nadal or Novak. His volley , stop volley, backend, forehand and dropshots are very pleasing to watch. To play for 20 over yrs with very high consistency is simply amazing. And above all, he is very humble, down to earth always easy going with his fans and media. We hardly read or hear ppl say bad things abt him. It is astonoshing to know that he has never retired half way in 1500 plus matches he has played. This shows how much he loves Tennis.. No other player has this effect on public past 50 yrs plus. No wonder he gets so much love, respect and attention from Reporters, players and public.. Even if Novak wins 25 Slams, he can never match talent, skill, charishma, elegance and popularity of Federer. Novak may go down as Goat but Federer is Lion ( king who rules)..👌🏻👌🏻....
Federer has such great anticipation. There were so many instances where he managed to get one more hit on the opponent's smash and it does it in such a casual way, it give you the feeling that he knows where the opponent will hit.
Fed at the end of 7:27 point is so much fun, raising his hand as if to say sorry to Andy (after some unreal points like the smash facing almost backwards with the ball behind him). Also, the lob is just the same as the 2007 US Open "lob wedge up to the green", and "this is the bit of magic Federer has that Roddick just won't ever have" and Roddick falls for it both times.
IIRC this point was the point before the smash off Andy's smash. So back to back genius from Roger. That's why Andy playfully threw his racket at Roger...
Federer doesn't play too many lobs, but when he does, those are special. My favourite is by far the "defensive" sliced backhand lob, that tricks the opponent into thinking he will have a ball to smash, so he starts to prepare the Trophy position, and then realizes the ball is too high and deep, and doesn't even bother to chase it down, or when he does it's too late, meanwhile the ball lands falling almost straight just inside the court.
Even before watching the video, I remember the following (Apart from the agassi one) - BH lob vs M.Zverev at AO17, numerous sliced lobs against Haas at Wimbledon 09, BH lob vs Rafa at RG19, behind the back no look lob vs Kohlschreiber at Halle\Stuttgart '15
Took me a while to realize there were no GS points - for obvious reasons - cuz I was already saying to myself, "Poor old Andy Roddick" while waiting for that 2007 US Open SF slice lob. Andy thanks the ITF for it's omission. LOL!
The existence of these channels is proof that Federer fans are true tennis connoisseurs. Fans of other contemporary tennis players, a couple of them more "accomplished" than him, will never make this kind of compilations, because they do not view and their favorite players do not play tennis as an art.
I think this was the match where one match point literally hit the tape and fell back on his side. Had it gone one inch higher, it was his match. Tennis can be heartbreaking like that.
If you want to see just how truly amazing Roger is watch the get he makes right before the lob versus Agassi. Set video speed to .25X to really see what happens. Roger hits a cross court backhand passing shot that Agassi just gets his racket on to drop volley. Roger is way too far back to be able to get there but he does, and picks it up maybe an inch or two off the ground
The Agassi shot is one of the greatest shots in tennis. Unbelievable get. And one of the reasons Agassi thinks Roger is the Goat. "No place safe on the court when playing Fed."
The double lob vs M. Zverev (2017) is missing. It's even more insane when you know the lobs land on the exact same spot! vid: th-cam.com/video/1txrMVqPzBg/w-d-xo.html
@@RazOls understatement Raz..well done ✔️ ....I actually changed my name by deed poll in 2012 to 2016 to H R FEDERER !!! spur of the moment thing...the greatest sportsman/athlete in history,just love the man Raz,i mean how can you not !!!
Seen a couple of highlight reels, but either I'm remembering it wrong, but didn't Federer had a rally where he made 2 lobs that landed at exactly the same spot?
I dig Rafa since the first match that got me interested in tennis, his 2006 final vs Federer. With the scores of "professional commentators" as well as mere Internet-commenting Federer fans throwing foul names at Nadal for the best part of 20 years, it was only natural that I'd grew to feel a marked aversion towards Federer the person, and the tennis player. Now it's all in the past. This channel has seriously helped me realize what a player he was, and now I am well-disposed towards him Also, I prefer that Rafa has won what he won with Federer in the game, and not what he would have won (much more) without Federer in the game.
Great video Raz. But You missed his two lobs against Karlovic in AO '12 and the same against Zverev in AO'17. Also the one against Sam Groth in USO '12.
Not sure if you do video requests Raz...but...how about Roger's best point against every GS winner he's played in his career. I feel like the haters don't understand how many Slam winners Roger played before ascending to the top of the game. They call it a weak era but the guys who won those Slams prior to Roger dominating would gladly flip them the bird and show them their trophy.
@@RazOls Thanks! Might be kind of hard finding some of the matches. Of course the Ivanisevic best point is obvious...in my mind I'm replaying Goran throwing his racket in frustration. LOL!

No one will ever do what he has done and play how he plays. Simply, the greatest ever!
Yep
Its my favourite shot as well
Absolutely right.Roger is the GOAT irrespective of Grand Slam collection

Just doesn't have the most slam titles 😅
But he can eat gluten 😋
@@ConstantDistraction 3rd best player satisfied with gluten
@@schumifan78 doesn’t mean he’s not the greatest. 😂
He made me a tennis fan and I’ll always love him for that
11:50 One of the most casually hit winners I've seen from Federer
Haha yeah. Murray was devastated lol
Roger was in pure badass mode in that match!
He had a back injury and Murray was playing out of his mind, yet he produced some of the most memorable piece of controlled shotmaking in the most casual way possible!

The excitement and noise from the crowds! We'll never see or hear anything like it again.

Cracking video Raz. I could watch Federer videos all day!
For Federer, a lob is not typically defensive, rather it’s a passing shot but in the vertical plane. 🎾 🍾❤️
Yeah, absolutely genius. That rally at 5:48 was awesome!

Thanks for the great video, Roger is a legend, it’s super to watch these lobs. I wish Roger would have had another 10 years in him. 😀
9:42 don't worry Blake. It's was not your fault. You had no idea what you were up against. You couldn't see it coming that you never had a chance
perfect ending! awesome video!
very satisfying video!!! thanks
Sir Roger federer golden legend in universal love you so much ❤❤❤

Awesome👍👍
Still missing you Roger.❤😢
3:24 Federer with a cap backwards??? Now that's something I never expected to see!
There is an incredible backhand slice lob against Roddick at the 2007 US Open
Federer has the best backspin lob I have ever seen.
Those slicelobs are so satisfying. looks like golf- lobshot
Took me a while to realize there were no GS points - for obvious reasons - cuz I was already saying to myself, "Poor old Andy Roddick" while waiting for that 2007 US Open SF slice lob. Andy thanks the ITF for it's omission. LOL!
@12:14 what does Roger shout?

I feel sorry for Leo Mayer that match ,5 match point safe by Roger
I think this was the match where one match point literally hit the tape and fell back on his side. Had it gone one inch higher, it was his match. Tennis can be heartbreaking like that.
Most Naturally Talented player in The History of Tennis...Period

Last lob against Agassi was the greatest lob any player can get hit by,this made Agassi a Nadal fan, he started hating Federer since then😂😂
Last one😍😍

Sorry, no Grand Slam footage in this video
This is what makes Roger so so special...THAT THE ACTUAL IMPOSSIBLE CAN BE MADE POSSIBLE !!
Hi Raz what's happening,amazing and brilliant things you put on here about our beloved Roger...thanks as always
My pleasure :) Happy you like my videos

You reserved the best for the last!
Another between the legs lob vs Sam Querrey at Wimbledon 2015 should be added as well

That thumbnail... I remember that match
I bet Mayer does too
One of the very few tournaments where Fed survived match points and went on to win a tournament.
4:06 His aim as lousy, what was he thinking?
I am watching it now but I already know which lob will be shown at the last
King Roger
Roger looks debonair@5:48
Agassi doing his best considering it as just a point.
Laugh after the shot against Agassi was an innocent one
You see the endearing smile: the joyness of playing creative tennis!
Lob+Federer = 🦞
You mean to say lobster 😂😂😂he is goat🐐
So infuriating, that final little pop over the net to win the point, when you've just sent the opponent to the very back of the court.
Great video Raz. But You missed his two lobs against Karlovic in AO '12 and the same against Zverev in AO'17. Also the one against Sam Groth in USO '12.
No Grand Slam points in this video :)
Wizardry ✨
Seriously? None from recent years? The two against Misha Zverev at AO were sublime and how can you not include the one against Djoker at USO?
That lob against Agassi isn’t that good. I’m sure I hit the same shot in my dreams last night. 😆
Yeah yeah, but who has the most men's grand slam titles?
Yeah, but who crushed all competitors to stay #1 in the world for 4-1/2 consecutive years.....the longest of *ANY PLAYER EVER*

@@RazOls Thanks! Might be kind of hard finding some of the matches. Of course the Ivanisevic best point is obvious...in my mind I'm replaying Goran throwing his racket in frustration. LOL!
Murray is the lob GOAT but Roger is second I think
The average cirrus empirically point because structure synchronously heal atop a automatic grade. hallowed, disastrous competitor
Never!
The thing that made Roger so special was he could hurt you 10 different ways and even the best players could only imagine 5 of those being possible.
