      0:15 You can see how Fed started off on the other side of the court. Henman hits a decent bh down the line. Fed is there in a flash and hits a ridiculous crosscourt FH with an angle and pace that makes Henman looks completely unprepared. (Even though Henman was already leaning in that direction.) Any tennis fan has to look at what happens to that ball once it hit the ground. It just zipped away.

    Henman was never the modern athlete, but his touch at net was soooo good.
    Has any other pro use slazenger rackets since? It's almost quaint seeing Tim decked out in all British gear, but I assume at the time they were as good an option as other brands (like Nike, wilson, etc) if a top 10 pro was using them?

    Henman put up a fight but you could see why his game had limits with the way the courts were changing. Accurate serve with some solid zip, excellent transition game/volleys and as seen here he could even thump groundies when he had time and went for it but his standard rally ball just wasn't big enough to consistently trouble the newer guys, much less peak Federer.

    Watching old Roger match highlights is always entertaining, but watching all these "weaker wing" BH passing shots whiz by Henman is hilarious. People always criticized Roger for the lack of winners off his BH but part of that is because after 2006 guys just didn't come to the net as often. It's just harder to hit tons of rally winners with a single hander.

    Henman was not one of the most gifted players during the early 00's yet he was one of the few who kept playing at this point in time (2006). By this year the likes of Rafter, Kafelnikov, Ríos, Kuerten were already retired or on the verge of it. This is one of the reasons that Federer dominated between 2004-2008: he only had to compete with his own generation and the lesser players from the previous one.

    • @TennisAnalyst1
      @TennisAnalyst1 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      The last statement about Federer's competition is unfortunately inaccurate in a major way. During 2004-2008, RF actually competed with the two greatest players of the NEXT generation, some guys named Rafa and Novak (5-6 years younger). Rafa started winning slams in as early as 2005 and started challenging for slams outside of clay beginning 2006; he was a beast at a very young age to say the least. By 2007, Novak was already a semi-finalist at most majors. We could see their talent early on. (It's not unlike what we're seeing now with Alcaraz, who's able to collect his slams quite early, well before his prime.) The other reason for Federer's domination is simply that he was that far ahead of his competition (and thus making the field look weak), and was a special talent (something that many tennis commentators, including past pro players, frequently remarked upon).

      @@thebigmonstaandy6644 true, Djokovic was just starting in early phase of his career 04-06 when Fed was on a tear. But in '07, he was there for many of the major battles (2 Grand slam encounters, and Djokovic was already in semis at FO, W, and finals at USO). Fed had won about 50% of his slam count by the time he started overlapping with Djokovic in '07. As for Nadal, Fed had only won 4 slams before he started tangling with Nadal at FO in '05. Granted Nadal was largely a clay court player for the early years, but as history would play out, he would also be a generational talent who was a very early bloomer. It's not fair to ignore the presence of Nadal (starting in '05) and Djokovic (mid '07), as they were serious contenders for titles.
