One of the most brutal performances ever in Roger Federer's career.
Prime Federer was just terrifying! With a winning record of over 95% in 2006.
In a day where Roger Federer turned a tennis match intro an art lesson,
Thank you, Roger for everything you have done for tennis! - กีฬา
Federer at his best imperious mode. First he breaks your rhythm, then breaks your serve, breaks whatever game plan you had going & then breaks your spirit. And Fernando Gonzalez was no wuss!. I'm a single backhand fan & l am a Nando fan at that. I didn't catch this match so this was a treat! Thanks so much. More please.
Gonzalez was like "I gonna put some champagne in your eye" 😂
When I saw Federer win the second set I thought that he’d won the match already lmao. I forgot that they played best of 5 set finals in masters events back then
Right, making them nearly as hard to win as Grand Slam titles. To a small extent, the switching to best of 3 also played a role in the number of Masters titles amassed by Djokovic and Nadal.
I was astonished that there has already been a possibility for a challenge.
@@r.b.6619 perhaps it was the 1st year of its introduction.
Incredibly strong forehand from Fernando.
Why does he need to add a full-voice shout with each return?
The best ever
Fuerte pero impotente
epic match, I remember gonzo hitting a 120mph forehand before too. his fh was insane
At Stepanek?
@@bigrobsydney 😂👍
@@bigrobsydney I think it was during the Athens Olympics if I remember correctly
@@bigrobsydney but I do remember the big forehand shot at the worm steppes hahaha
Without mastering the power is nothing, we miss you so much Roger.
Fernando was as aggressive as Roger, but as good as Fernando played here Roger's aggression was too much. It was refreshing to see these highlights of both players taking in to one another. No fu fu mindless rallies waiting for the opponent to miss😊
Has nothing to do with aggression. Federer just had much better point construction and shot selection as well as shot making than anyone else in 2004-2007. You seem to have started watching tennis in 2020.
@@TheseHoesAreLoyal Your "opinion" is a dud. Ofcourse aggression was an integral part of Roger's success. The point construction would mean squat without his aggressive play...🙄
Nah, the reason was González weak bh, everyone they played fh vs fh González was better, but everything else Roger was superior
@@diegosotomiranda4107 That's actually one of the biggest reasons why Gonzo was just no match against Federer. He used slice like 80% of the time, makes Dimitrov look like an amateur when it comes to hitting more slice backhand than topspin backhand. Plus we all know Federer's forehand is just better overall than Gonzo's not in terms of power but in terms of consistency, angle, and variety. Plus Federer's serve was too good for Gonzo to handle, who didn't really have a good return of serve. Federer's serve from the get-go just set up the point to be bound to be won by himself, no chance for Gonzo. Meanwhile, Federer's slice also neutralized Gonzo's forehand to some degree.
What an amazing game by prime Roger.😍
More powerful and speedy tennis than now a days...
Amazing shotmaking from both players.
Damn, Gonzalez played a VERY solid 1st set, then after that it was nothing but pure demolition from Fed, no pity !!! 😳
A couple of those forehands from Fed in that 3rd set is what sets his prime apart from 2010-2020 or so. Movement and power wise he was something else back then.
Yeah, he was just insane. Prime Federer (from mid 2003 to all 2007) is by far the most shocking thing ever seen on a tennis court. This flow was interrupted by mononucleosis by the January 2008, with subsequent loss of confidence which took at least 6/7 months to heal. At the beginning of 2009 he was back almost at his previous level... well, "almost". By 2010, he was not basically error free like he was before, he had lost some of his explosiveness and also a little bit of court coverage, so he started to compensate by modifying his game shifting his zone even closer and closer to the baseline, until 2013, when he realized that the type of ultra aggressive game he was playing, was not possible with his old small headed racquet anymore.
Gonzalez only winning six games and not really losing his mind, but worse; losing his champagne against Federer.
Look at the prime Federer,,,no one can compete him forever in tennis history...
Prime Federer with Neo Back hand...very hard to beat for any one
New on your channel. Amazing content. Keep it up!
Welcome aboard!
Tennis vom anderen Stern! Beide großartig und Federer auf dem Höhepunkt. Respekt!🎾⭐👏💥
One of prime Federer's secret weapon against hard hitters was to stand close to the baseline.
Requires a lot of skill and timing to get it right.. but this is Federer we are talking about.
When executed correctly, opponents have lesser time to recover from the previous shot as the ball will come back to them faster.. its like practicing against the wall but imagine if you stood closer to the wall.. there simply isnt enough time to react
just observe 2nd and 3rd set!
Every year, there will be 4 grand slam championships handed out, but good tennis, once gone, is hard to get back again
Il più forte di tutti per distacco
!
Fernando González con variedad de golpes, pero siempre fue por reventar la pelota, y Federer de manera tranquila le fue desarmando todo el juego...
This final and AO final, Gonzo could not have played the first sets of both finals any better, but still got straight setted by Fed. Just ridiculous because both produced high quality points that didn't do the scorelines justice. Fortunately Gonzo was able to finally get Fed at the Shanghai Year End Championships in the round robin, but took alot out of him and ran out of gas for the rest of the round robin matches.
Just noticed how shallow that court is at the baseline area vs some of today's courts. Must've been uncomfortable for those players that like to stand deep. You can see the lines umpires moving out of the way of Gonzalez when he comes close.
" Such a lovely man. A gentleman in every sense". That pretty much sums up RF, a player who you'd be challenged to dislike.
14:37 "He's such a lovely man, this fellow..." When he wins, yes....
I don’t see him “ losing his mind “
wtf 🤬 are you saying !😮
Two things - I think Roger & Rafa deserve an extra 1/2 point in the Masters titles count for every best-of-5 sets title they won. By the time Novak started winning Masters they were best-of-3 sets. The other thing is - when I first saw DelPo I called him The Tall Gonzo With A Better Backhand. Hit everything hard and if that fails - hit it harder.
"Nice catch in the slips there" such a British thing to say. Lol. Went over many heads I'm sure.
Not for most Aussies and cricket lovers. 😊
@@Codesta of course not. Nor us West Indians.
Commentator "He'll be the greatest player of all time"
2006.
TIL masters used to be best-of-5 😮
It doesn't make sense, Federer himself had one of the strongest forehands, it's not that he somehow hit less powerful forehands than Gonzales, Federer overall was just a better player.
only time Gonzo was able to attack Roger by throwing Champagne and it was only time Roger was afraid of Gonzo
Best fh vs best player
Third set 6/0 is insane.
You got to love Gonzo's backhand. One of the best in the game lol (sarcasm off)
00:03 Jésus !! 😱😱
Federer's level in the last set was just jaw dropping, ridiculous stuff.
Anyone can smack a forehand. I guarantee every single ATP player could hit a forehand as hard as Gonzalez, but their playing styles is different. It would be one thing if Gonzo hit a variety of winners from different positions on the court and used angles or banana shots or lobs. No, it was literally just smacking at the ball. James Blake had a similar playing style
fed only beat ndal; 2 times on clay and never at french and only when nadal career just started 08/09...Djoki beat nadal 8 times on clay , 2 times at french and beat nadal at his peak age 25-27 multiple times
at what pint did gonzales loose his mind?
Lol 😂! Never saw this live so never knew about the whole champagne situation. So awesome. Golden era of tennis.
Mano de Piedra Gonzales..
forehand vs forehand
Say, what's with the audio? It's mute.
5:00
CLICKBAIT!
It looks like computer tennis.
Prime Federer uses
Tennis IQ: 90%
Power: .10%
Federer fue la bestia negra de Fernando Gonzalez, creo que las primera 9 veces que jugaron, al partido 10 logro garnar Fernando 😛
Too much for Gonzales
and this is why they had to make the courts so slow, otherwise federer would've won any tournament for 2 decades
Great game. So many good points from both.
Clickbait title. Gonzalez didn't loose his mind nor was brutal or destroyed.
Sorry, Madrid best of 5?
im not sure how many but most of the finals of the atp 1000 where best of 5 back then. Makes it even harder to win one. they changed it in 2008.
Yes, last time.
@@thebigredmachine2411 2007, that was the year in which they switched the masters finals from 5 to 3 sets. They began talking about it in 2006 after Rome's Super long 5 set final between federer and nadal.
The shot at 1:40 shows he is 100% muscle power but 0% brain power and thats why he never won anything major really.
You don’t become a top tennis player with 0% brain power, don’t be so disrespectful…
Wow stupid comment 🙄
„WeAk eRa ChAmP“
Literally just saying they are casual by saying this. The 2000's is significantly more impressive than the 2020's. Not to mention the Masters Final was bo5 too.
@@AstroSullyhe was sarcastic I think.
Fed had lots of success with B players when it came to Nadal/djoki he only own 33% of his GS matches agaisnt them total failure..Fed couldn't even beat Nadal once at French and lossed to djoki 3 times ina row at wimbledon finals on his supposed best surface!! Fed was a phony and over marketed to the armchair tennis players who gobbled it up...djoki is the true ammbassador to tennis and it shows with his articulated post match speeches he will always be there for tennis wth fed he faded away just like his sqaush game , weak backhand and weak mental strength.. Fed has a losing H2H record agaisn tboth nadal/djoki...Only thing left of fed he sells more running shoes and watches...
He lost 3 in a row against Novak when he was 30+. Imagine 30+ year Djoko playing the Federer in this video mate. It's all about perspective.
@@SHVideografie next u will say tom brady not fair ur too old
@@canski5646 Tom what?! Even your trolling is weak just like Nole's game and attitude.
and apparently you're one of Nole fan girls who don't understand or appreciate Tennis.
when your idole Nole reaches this level you can become a better troll, troll.
@@soheiladam7510 how did u get so cute? i suggest u go out and buy some fed running shoes and try the pageantry page
without federer a do...
