"The two greatest passing shots of the tournament, without doubt, have taken place on the last 2 points."
May very well be the greatest passing shots in tennis history!

@@theaviator1152 well, 9-8 but we don't know for who
Unbelievable, still remember vividly when I watched it live. The tension was unbearable, the drama incomparable, the shotmaking unparalleled under pressure.
This match is something that forms a significant part of my childhood that I look back upon fondly. It just is something that just won't be forgotten, ever.
Pranav Mohanty well said,
I was too small that time to understand tennis
For me it was the finals of AO 2017
For me it was the finals of USO 2034
Which shots?
Same here.
So lucky u r
This was probably the best men’s finals I have ever seen. Both are such legends. I’m a Federer fan personally, but I have so much respect and admiration for Rafa too. Great role models and ambassadors of tennis 🎾
well said...
rafa fan here and while i didnt like Federer early on- over the yrs i learned to respect what Roger has done and means to the sport of tennis

@@emilgrantcharov3317 what do ya mean?
So far yes, but 2019’s was insane!
Australian open 2012 was better
- watched on TV in 2008
- still watching on TH-cam in 2022
same here! What a privilige it was watching that live.
I still felt the pressure
The backhand by Fed at 11:59, just hook that to my veins. That's what makes him the greatest ever. It's nothing about how "beautiful" he plays or whatever, it's responding to a friggin championship point with a completely insane shot like that.
I remember vividly when I was watching this match live. When he hit that backhand pass to save championship point, I literally flew off my sofa and jumped up and screamed! I couldn't believe that he hit that shot under those circumstances. A few points later we were headed to the 5th. I still can't believe that Rafa didn't collapse mentally after losing that breaker.
I loled at "greatest ever"
Not really.
@@siblingcat4765 ?
@@POK2008 Rafa's mental strength is the greatest in tennis (with all due respect to another mental GIANT like Djokovic, or even Roger, whose mental strength is underrated). He told that the moment after losing that tie-break was one of the toughest moments for him in a Grand Slam final, but he also told that once the 5th set progressed, he felt stronger and he felt that he was in a better position to win.
GOAT. Greatest Of All Tiebreaks. #Fedal
Nah the best tie-break ever has been played in Wimbledon yes but between Bjorn Borg et John Mc Enroe.
In a fourth set tie-breaker that lasted 20 minutes, McEnroe saved five match points (seven altogether in that set) and eventually won 18-16.
This is the highest level that tennis could ever get.
Legendary final!
This is the best tie-break ever played in Wimbledon in my opinion. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are two of the best tennis players that the world has ever seen. They are both still on the top of their game, and I have to admire that. Hopefully they will have some more legendary matches in the future. :)
and they still at the top of their game in 2019 as #2 & #3 seeds respectively.....
in their 30s!!! thats wild man!!!!!
Yup now getting bashed by NOVAK DJOKOVIC!
Vick Van Waar Well, certainly not bashed. The Wimbledon final couldn’t have been more tight.
@@RaphaelBas1995 hahah federer lost
@@VanWaar this comment is prescient.
Djokovic beat Nadal in the semis and took out Tsitsipas in FRENCH OPEN FINAL to bag #19
He wins WIMBLEDON, its gonna be a firestorm!
Tennis will never be the same without these two legends. Not sure if we know how lucky we have it to witness the games two best playing against one another. Best tennis match there has and ever will be.
Definitely the greatest, most magical match of all time. The only one that made me cry.
As far as what tennis can bring to the audiences around the world, no other match comes close.
This is by far the best tiebreak in the history of tennis......
Maybe McEnroe-Borg in 1981 comes close but this was just out of this world!
In fact, the fourth set-tiebreaker of the 1980 Wimbledon final between McEnroe and Borg was better (or at least on par)
Roger's backhand down the line at 12:00 facing championship point was cold as hell! I thought Nadal was gonna lose the match after I saw that. Talk about performing under pressure! Amazing game, amazing tiebreak by the two greatest this sport has seen.
And it’s such a low Percentage shot, especially for fed, he’d miss that probably eight times out of ten. That’s what made it so awesome
Yes, Federer's subdued celebration after that makes it so cold
Djokovic>Federer
@@BigOllieSpin Wrong video! 🤷🏽♂️
Nadal admitted afterwards years later that in the seconds after that Federer shot, it is the worst he ever felt on a tennis court.
Federer is the only player I will pay to watch such a stylish player with graceful shot making and nadal was a beast back then the greatest Wimbledon match of all time.
I've watched it for the first time in 2017. And immediately after this 5-hours long miracle of a match I wanted to re-watch it again right away! All those viewers are the luckiest and happiest tennis fans in history!
Man Federer was soooo young here, Nadal too....
both were in their prime *PRIME* and i was old enough to witness it!
The difference between Federer's backhand then and now is amazing. This match was special.
Lol why did they make the families sit in the same box. Awkward.
they didn't, it was out of respect for eachother.
I worked at a golf course and this match was on the tv in the pro shop. My shift ended when Nadal won the second set and it looked like had it in the bag. I went out and played 18 holes and when I got back to the pro shop there were more people crowded around the tv watching what I thought was a replay of the match. Nope. It was still going and I got back in time to watch the final few points played. Just incredible.
This match still hurts...this one and 2014 and 2019...Fed would have been at #23
Add 2009 uspen, 2015 usopen , 2010 and 2011 both had semi final match points and has played 15 semis total, he totally could have got 30 slams if not more!!
@@v1n3ger43 25 maximum not 30 ..
The greatest tiebreak ever played. 11:00 & 11:55 Two best passing shots ever.
No disrespect to Federer but that passing shot in particular was nowhere near as good as Nadal's.
David C. I agree
@@lost_valley Honestly it was as good as Nadal's given the pressure at that point of time and the fact that hitting a Nadal forehand approach shot down the line for a single hander is pretty hard...
Sorry David C, but Ishaan Sati is right!
Not anymore...
The greatest players this sport has ever had. No need to discuss any further.
The 15th point was about Rafa's grit, the 16th was about Roger's genius.
Love Novak but Stopping roger at Wimbledon back then and composing himself after losing those two tiebreak sets puts Rafa over the line as the greatest ...he was stopping roger way before Novak stopped a second tier roger much later on and that’s the difference
i was three when this match was played, it was my first memory watching tennis, now I play tennis really seriously. I owe a lot of that to this match.
no one cares
That's why this is the greatest final of all time. People might argue that AO2012 was more brutal than this, but the drama, the tension ,the shotmaking under pressure is just other worldly
2019 final was also good for its dramatic ending.
2019 final is more dramatic than this 100%.

Mirka praying with fingers crossed and Nadal hit an iconic shot at 11:07 forehand dtl with *ZERO FEAR!!!* WOW!!!
This match and previous year match lifted the tennis to another level. Two of the greatest
the best tie-break in WB
Who doesn’t remember this. This was a big win for Rafa as he proved he was more than just a clay court specialist.
almost 11 year to go and still reemember like yesterday: the tensión level was amazing, the drama, the rain, one of the best final in tenis history. how ever, for me, that year the court was So slowly, no way to can So many passing shot to Roger in Wimbledon.
Mens tennis the last 16 years has been amazing!! What the big three have accomplished is incredible!
Still gives me goosebumps
The two greatest passing shots ever hit in the history of tennis. And on two consecutive points. Those 2 shots alone were worth the ticket money.
God, Fed on Centre Court gives off such Final Boss vibes. Credit to Nadal for recovering to win this one and also to Djokovic for doing it multiple times, because even in older age, the Swiss Maestro manages to find a different level on this court in the big moments.
That grim smile from Uncle Toni after Fed goes up 9-8, is a perfect reaction. It’s like he’s saying “Damn. This guy just won’t go away.”
Still I remember this tie-break..... Such a wonderful raw tie-break..... Both players are in good form at that time.....
Watching this straight after watching Borg v McEnroe tie break. Wow these 2 make them look like decent club players, tennis will never be as good as this again
I remember watching this final 2008 on tv with my friends, when federer hit that backhand passing shot down the line facing championship point we all jumped up and screamed 😂
Federer played the 2 best Wimbledon finals of all time 2008-2019. He lost both
Yes. And it was so close...
@@philou1467 2009 was pretty sick as well.
Toni nadals face is priceless, he knew Nadal awaken the beast, actually Federer had Nadal on the 5th set but he blew it.
Had a BP at 4-3 if I'm not wrong and he missed it. Could have had the game.
@@viveknamikaze761 correct but Nadal came with one of those unreal shots.
The best men's tennis match of all time. Federer's backhand pass to save match point in the 4th..... no words.
I still get stressed watching this again, incredible
This has to be the best tiebreak ever. With everything on the line, the history btwn the two
Who is here before Wimbledon semi final??
me dude- i had to relive the glory!!!
i watched this live in 2008 and it was the greatest match i had ever witnessed. the only sporting event that i did not use the bathroom, not even on commercials lol!!!
Came here but the final killed me. All that happiness turned into despair.
That shot from Nadal at 11:07. Whoah! STUNNING!!! And it was.
One of the best shots I've ever seen. Not only is he on the full stretch and on the dead run, but look how far back in the court he is. So, not only does he need to place the ball delicately up the line, but he also needs to absolutely rip it because Fed has extra time to react. Oh, and he has to do all that while two points away from his first Wimbledon against a guy who had won five straight. Nadal's combination of physical talent and mental toughness was just otherworldly.
I think this tiebreak encapsulates all that is good and right about tennis. Two of the all time greats going at it and producing some of their best tennis. Amazing tennis under pressure. This match got me hooked on the sport haha
How fitting it is, that their last ever professional encounter was at Wimbledon in 2019. What an era it has been, what a journey. To think of how far these two have gone now and the friendship that blossomed between them, this was a rivalry for the ages for sure.
Let's repeat the final again this year!
Federer deserved to win wimbledon. I was very sad when federer lost this final
I was there that day. A day I will never forget.
Lucky
Coming here from yesterday's match -- well, it's 11 years now, and the insane action, throwing everything including the kitchen sink tennis, and the epic battling between these two hasn't changed a bit! And Mirka if anything was even more on the edge of her seat than ever!
13:40 I wonder what Uncle Toni was thinking 🤔💭
Probably “not again” 😅
Best game of tennis I've ever seen. Hadn't even intended to watch it and turned on the t.v midway though the 2nd set and was absolutely glued. Incredible. Probably the best sporting event I've ever seen come to think of it
Best final there will ever be
Those who were lucky enough to watch this match live witnessed the best tennis match in history.
I can’t believe this was 14 years ago, it seems like only yesterday.
To me the best mens final ever. - Ive watched many Grand Slam finals but its the one I remember most. The fact that it finished in near darkness - the trophy presentation and the flashlights of the photographers at the end with Nadal holding the trophy aloft made the match ever more magical and spectacular. There was another match they played at the Australian Open final that I remember for the presentation ceremony because both were so exhausted they were having trouble standing - it was agonising to watch them struggling to stand and leaning on the net to hold themselves up. Cant remember the year and can't remember who won ..?
Nadal vs Djokovic, AO 2012 F.
Djokovic, Murray and all the other top tennis players, are playing brilliant tennis. Now watch this and tell me if it ain't MAGIC tennis. #FEDAL
Crazy-Heart clearly u haven't seen Djokovic at his best
actually I have. I'm not saying that he is not a brilliant player but he is not as genuine as Federer and Nadal.
PRIMER FED THEN PRIME NOLE THEN PREM RAFA
@spence dont diss Murray dude.... he made like 7 or 8 finals, won 3 titles; 2 Wimbledons; won back to back Olympic Golds.... and finished his prime as #1 player in the world during the *BIG THREE ERA*
Murray wasnt a joke- show a bot more respect, bub
@@thetruthofit398 primero NADAL
segundo FEDERER
tercero NOLE,, Así és la lista original
If ever there was a tennis match that should of ended a draw 😃 this was it what a match between 2 great warriors! I could of easily watched another couple of sets....
Best tie break of all the times , Best perfomance of rafa and Roger
2008, 2009, 2019 ... some truly brutal Wimbledon Finals.
The two epic passing shots were at 10:45, score 7-7 and 8-7.
Nadal could’ve finished the match in that tie break if he hit down the line during the match point.. but this match was destined to be the greatest match of all time.
He didn't want to go down the line because that would be to Feds FH. He wanted Fed to have to pass him with his BH. Rafa made the right choice. Fed just hit a great shot.
july 6 2008-july 6 2023, this thursday will be 15 years of this epic match
the best 15 minutes of tennis ever played
The best ever..... glad that sentence isnt overused. So many great matches and this one of them.
6:10 the closet moment when Nadal's gonna smash racquet in his life
Increíble.mostruos 🙂
I can watch this again and again and again!! Clicked here for the two passing shots..
As much I loved watching Federer play and as good as he was back then, his game had one big weakness and that was his opponent being able to attack a shorter ball with an angled cross court top spin into his backhand, which both Nadal (in those days, with his forehand) and Djokovic (in the 2010s, with his backhand) used against him to great effect.
Out of the hundreds of stupid comments that mostly consume the comments section, one can always find a person who understands the game better. And yes, Federer's greatest weakness back then against Rafa and now against Novak is that backhand of his which sits up nicely for them to pounce.
