Where the heck is Blake and Ljubicic?! These two are some of the biggest of his early career rivals!
They were Pre-1980
blake played in the 2022 US Open exhibition matches, he’s still in fantastic shape.
Blake is actually the tournament director for the Miami Open now.
Blake never semi final The slam
@@gabrieldomingues7961 It's not about, who makes semi-finals of the slam! Lol It's about rivalries! I don't think you understand how that works...
None of these were challenging for Federer this is why he dominated 03-08 until Nadal got good enough in 08' then Novak in 2011.
Only Ferrer
In the titles section its as you say, but in H2H Nalbandian finished 8 to 11, which is a pretty decent number if we consider that only 4 games were on clay and the rest on hard courts, also something to keep in mind is that Federer was able to prevail in the H2H in the last times since he won the last 3 games when Nalbandian played little often due to injuries. I think no other player on this list has such an even H2H with Federer
@@synhet84 Ferrer a challenge? Ferrer finished with a 0 - 17 in the H2H with Federer !!!
Nah, he certainly did not *dominate in 08* he got absolutely bummed on Clay only to further lose on his best surface. His Prime was 03-07.
Another great video mate :)
These guys were all super talented!!!! And super strong, Roger was just too talented at that era... imagine so talented that you beat next-gen players at 40 years of age
Sure,they would be top 50 in Nole prime!
@Pasha Pasovski If Tiafoe, Isner and Opelka can be top 50 and even top 20 these guys wouldn't have a problem getting to the top.
I do not think Ferrer, Verdasco, Soderling and Monaco to be purely Federer's Generation. They overlapped with the Big 3 era.
In fact Soderling and Verdasco belong to Djokodal's era more, than to Fedal era! I think Berdych and Ferrer fall into the same "overlapping" category...
You forgot Guga Kuerten, the great brazilian player!!😟
I miss Marat Safin.
Title : where are they now?
Tennis plus : Probably somewhere in France.
Thx a lot !
7:53 how much better does RS look with long hair? what a difference - glad i saw it here.
why 80-84? could go 78-82 or 78-84. cool man.
I need a video like this about Rafa/Novak generation!
Verdasco, Lopez & Mahut the only active ones
Nalbandian is my favourite
Ljubicic, Blake, Kuerten, Gasquet, Almagro, Monfils, Haas and many more are missing
Tommy haas???
We thought that generation of players was weak. Look at the field today. 😅😅😅
Honestly nobody is weak. The big 3 are just strong. Really Really strong.
This era vs current era…. This era actually is way stronger than current next gen lol Federer made them look weak in his shirt prime years
Back then we recognize people in the top20 because they were consistent enough to see then far into tournaments, now the top20 changes every couple of months, I have no clue of the players outside the top10, and even the top10 rotate every 4 months, this australian open only four male top20 reach quarterfinals, total fail
This volatility of players in and out the Top 10 is a recent phenomenon. Up until 2020-202, Top 10 players were still pretty regular throughout the whole year.
Top-20 players are not supposed to be reaching quarter-finals, only first 8 top ranked! Not saying that every grand slam should have top-8 ranked players necessary, but any competitive high level grand slam would have 4 or even 5 top-8 players playing in the semis! Top-20 players are round 4 material at best!
Sorry not the semis, i meant quarters!…
@@Summon256 What? Top20 players includes top8 players, but what do you mean round4 at best? you meant round4 at least?
@@Eyesonly302 If you meant first 8 ranked players you could have just said top-8 instead of top-20! People use top-20 to usually include players that are ranked lower than top-10...For any player ranked from 9 to 20 1/16 of a grand slam is a good result, anything better than that for that kind of player is an extra...
Sampras and agassi ?
@@suparna5177 Both Sampras and Agassi were still around when Roger started his career .I actually think there was as much talent around then as there is now.
@@suparna5177 You are right Sampras did retire shortly after Roger defeated him at Wimbledon and Agassi was not at his best when he played Roger but he was still a good player. Roger does not rely on a long career for his enviable reputation because he has natural talent, skill and artistry which means he is greatly missed now he has retired.
And gaudio?
He's born in 78´- this list was for those between 80´ and 84´
New generation is also weak era .on which djokovic is easily feeding.
crying?
Bro, just wondering how you manage to have such a terrible Name pronunciation.
1) Go to google translate
2) Type the name
3) Change the language to the native language of the player
4) Hit the 🔊button
Guga? Gaudio? Grojean? El cholo simeone? Kmon
All this players would destroy this next gen boys that can't even beat the big3 in at 35-40 years old
They only had to face Fed in their prime, while the next gen had to face all of the Big 3 with the other top 80 & 90s gen, along with competition from their own peers. This was not the scenario back then. I think Fed's gen was too weak even for next gen. Next gen would easily beat all of them comfortably
Djokovic is farming against the post 2018 weak era
Early 00s through to 2007 was a fairly weak period for tennis.
Djokovic success was against 30 age old out of prime federer and injury prone nadal, there is a reason why novak only sneak 1 slam like he did when those 2 are still at their best because djokovic couldnt beat them when those 2 are still at their best, you cant even say djoko too young cause he was almost the same age of rafa
There is a reason why when those 2 was still playing at their best novak was losing in h2h and slams achievement
Nadal vs Djokovic their h2h from 2006 until 2010 16-7 easy win for nadal
Djokovic vs Federer from 2006-2010, Federer easily beats Djokovic 13-6 in their h2h in favor of Roger, this was before Roger hits 30+ age
2005-2010
Roger 12 slams
Nadal 9 slams
Djoko 1 slam
And there is a reason why djokovic started only winning in 2011 when federer was 30 age old out of prime and nadal became injury prone
The reason and a proof that he couldnt beat those 2 when those 2 was still at their best and just started winning when those 2 decline, federer got older 30 age old out of prime in 2011 and nadal became injury prone djokovic faced the bulky injury prone nadal the version of nadal that would lose against 200 low rank seeded opponent in wimbledon since 2012-2017 that was the nadal that djokovic has faced nowhere near the nadal who went to wimbledon finals 2006 2007 and won it in 2008 2010, that was the best version of nadal who was lightning fast flying all over the court and can return any shot and federer faced and beat that best version of nadal and nadal was also able to beat federer, djokovic lose to that version of nadal and that version of federer you cant change that facts
Aren’t they in Assisted Living Facilities?
Federer won 12 slams vs average players ,he was God of tennis!
Djokovic Era Nadal,Federer, Murray, Wawrinka,Cilic,DelPotro,Fererer ,Roddick, Montenegro Canada dude,Medvedev,Tsispas,Rublev and many more who would be champions in Federer peak !
Absolutely not. This next gen clowns would do so much worse
Roger got lucky with this generation. If Djokovic and Nadal were around back then, he'd have half the slams he has now.
Yea lot of ifs, what if federer had a two handed backhand, what if federer played with a larger frame racquet early on, what if federer was younger and not from the serve and volley generation transitioning to baseline game. It doesn't matter what you say, Federer is irreplaceable. Many Nadal and Djokovic playing styles will be present in the future of tennis. Sometimes it's not about the stats my frnd when we r talking about a player like Roger Federer, he's a one time in history athlete.
@@audox4885 I know you know tennis well , cause ''what if federer played with a larger frame racquet early on,'' and that wwas a smart comment !!
Federer lost probably 4-5 grand slam cause of the lack of power du to the small frame racquet. And the only little weakness in the game of Federer are the mental, he are strong mentaly but less than Djoko and Nadal.
@@stephane7607 and you know why Federer is weaker mentally, when you have a liability like the one handed backhand, you cant compete with the mental level of two handed monsters like Nadal and Djokovic. Because the one handed can't return like the two handed, can't keep up with long baseline rallies, can't counter defend with pace because Federer has to slice. Significant disadvantage against other great players takes a toll on the player mentally. I honestly think Federer prime foot speed ended in 2012. He played well after because of sheer talent but there was a significant change in his foot speed. Although Federer didn't have many injuries that hampered him from participating, his back did bother him a lot and that was a big factor in slowing him down. What we saw from 2014-2019 was sheer talent, not prime Federer.
Nadal came along 2004, When Federer only had 2 slams. First encounter 2004 Miami. So Nadal where around
@@juniorcorrado7868 doesn't matter he's 5 yrs younger. It matters near the end of the career
Safin + Hewitt + Davydenko + Gonzalez + Nalbandian + Fish + Roddick + Ferrero + Verdasco + Ferrer + Mayer +
Soderling + Youzhny + Monaco + Robredo + Lopez + Malisse + Seppi + Coria + Muller + Mahut + Llodra
= a combined total of only *7 Grand Slam Titles*
Even when comparing player ELO ratings.. this was by far the WEAKEST era in open history!
Campare this to tsitsipas sverev medvedev thiem sinner alcaraz berrentini ... a combined total of 3 slams this is by far the weakest era of tennis
Add old sampras, agassi, young nadal, djokovic, murray, that’ll add some slams
BS, weakest era is from 2018 because the nextgen won only 3 GS!!! Guess who won half his GS during this period? Yup... the current number one. 🤣 Even Roddick's h2h with Djokovic is 5 vs 4.... 🤣 while against Federer is 3 vs 21...
@@my8osprive Aghh I remember you..
Looks like you still can't count mate. Keep it up tho.. you'll get there one day.
2008 - 2016 = 12 GS's
Young Novak winning since Roger's world's shortest prime years
2018 - 2023 = 10 GS's
31 year old Novak still consistently winning
2010 - 2016 : where was Rog ?
His trophy cabinet was getting pretty dusty. He must've danced with joy when Novak was out with surgery.. snagged a few GS's and became #1 again!
To bad Novak came back and he had to become old again. Agassi was 12 years older but its nothing like todays 5 year age gap.. it's double everything !
@@djfunkychicken Yeah I remember you too. You're still spamming TH-cam with the BS on weakest era.
10 GS is practically half of 22. No sense in stating 45.4545...%!!!
What do you mean where is Roger in 2010? Who beat Djokovic in the ATP finals then? Who beat Nole in 2011 in RG? 2012 Wimbledon? Or do you like counting Djoker wins after Fed turned 30+? 🤣🤣
Why "weak era" Roddick's record against Nole is 5 vs 4? But master RF beat him 21 times and lost 3... And don't tell me he was too young at 22-23 years old... lol.
Weak era... my @ss...
Weak era ...
No, my friend. Weak era starts around 2011. and goes on even nowadays.
@@tenja42 Sure buddy, that's why the strong era champ onoy won 4 slams since 2011
Djokovic is weak era! Haha he plays against low level players… top 5 atp lose in first rounds at gs. Federer is the goat!
@@stefanvasilache5252 For people who don't know what they're saying, yeah Federer is the goat :D
@@miljann98 ohohoho, you don t know nothing about tennis. I do! I bet you don t Even understand the deference between one handed backhand and 2 handed one. It plays a big role. Federer got the best angles and ball trajectory in this sport.
federer still the best player as your djoko only started winning in 2011 when federer was 30 age and now he has no federer and nadal young calibre opponent instead he is beating weak gen era who have no grand slam achievements and went to grand slam finals once in a blue moon lol when federer was older he has to face hungry young prime peak top notch level opponnent nadal djokovic and murray and federer still succeeded,
djokovic never experienced this in his career instead his opponents are weak gen era who have no grand slam achievements and went to grand slam finals once in a blue moon thats why he had an easy cake walk slams and achievements
Djokovic only won 1 slam in so called federer weak era while federer won 4 grand slam in so called djokovic strong era thats why federer the true tennis goat
Federer is ancient history thanks to Djokovic😀
ridiculous comment..if you only knew how many PED's djokavic has taken to get that many slams..people don't realize how dishonest sports really are..
Weak era
