Also, Team Europe has a perfect record at the Laver Cup. Federer will in all likelihood retire as a champion of his final tournament played.

103rd like. Yep.

kinda hope he will play and retire in Basel (Swiss indoors) this year, would be much more memorable

Should have been 104

Anything for Roger!

I know right. Coz Tennis TV rarely shows grand slam matches.

Grand slam footage: exist Tennis tv: This is not gonna be on tennis tv bro!!!

lol

I’m heartbroken but have to admit that AO17 and that year in general makes it easier. I don’t think he ever played better than there. Others may have more titles (and they are to be respected and celebrated) but no one will ever play as elegant as him ☺️❤️

@@thomasschroeter302 no doubt about it

I'm also heartbroken, but he won AO 17, 18 & Wimbledon 17 because of Djokovic suffering from elbow injury.

2017 was special. The come back and how he silenced all the doubters!

@@_jiwi2674 facts 😂

Nadal is the best just because he spank federer, how can you the best if two players dominated you LoL, being the best by beating with style trash players…

Alcaraz might have a chance to overtake him as the best player of all time, but Federer is by far the most influential

I fully agree but that surprise at AO 17 is my personal highlight. When we least expected it we got it all ☺️

Yeah there are many who can’t win the tournament cause roger was the opponent ^^ but Andy is special 😅

He could have hit a slice approach shot once in a while, instead of relying on that topspin approach....Roger would sit on that crosscourt approach and hit a passing shot every time.....

You are right, but Fed still won like half of all his titles after 2010.

Roddick wasn't one of the greatest grass court players of all time. Don't be an ignorant.

Same, I'm 33 years old now been watching him since I was a child too

Well there’s lots of doubt actually lol

@@viveknamikaze761 you are right!

@@viveknamikaze761 doesnt make him THE greatest. Everyone knows messi and ronaldo, or muhammed ali. Fame and greatness are also not the same thing.

As nadal fan, i do think that djokovic was more dominant, 2004-2007 is a period were nadal and djokovic was young and other players was trash tier compared to other tennis eras… Wining tournament was easy for a top player like federer. The djokovic domination was different because there was still a big 4 and Djokovic set atp point record whith those 3 others 2 years in a row… That’s more dominant for me

@@lnz971 lmao wrong. The current era we're in is the weakest ever

@@lnz971 Roger was still there and even in 2015 when Djokovic was at his peak he beat Nole 3 times like None did in that year. Roger was Always competitive

@@alessandrodesantis13 you are a joke federer beat him in group match in the master but lost against him in final... He beat him in cincinati but lost at usopen , and he win @ dubai ... ATP 500. Djokovic beat him @ Indian Wells, Rome, Wimbledon, Us open, and Masters's final...

I think one of the main reasons Djokovic had so much success. Is aside from his obvious brilliance. He never had a younger world class player putting pressure on him. Alcaraz is the first world star to emerge since Djokovic. In that Wimbledon final defeat. Djokovic made errors that he would not have made against Federer or Nadal. There is something about the younger challenger upsetting the mental health of the previous king. Medvedev Zverev and all that jazz were decent players. But they were not world stars. Djokovic had 15 years without facing this. Federer had it from 2008 onwards. It makes a big difference to the level of pressure. It's easier to chase than be chased. Also Djokovic fans go on about the crowd being against him. But this may have favoured him. The one night when he had the entire crowd against Medvedev. He lost in straight sets. Greatest tennis era ever. Peace and love.

Why's that lol?

Definitely yes... He played magnificently and was just unlucky with the last points... probably got emotional being so close to an epic win and so losing confidence...

​@@JohnRome-xn7hxI don't think he lost confidence, I think he gained it. He knew how close he was. Look what he did to Djokovic at the ATP Finals a few months later. It was his knee that finished him.

Hahahaha thanks rafa 🤣

ok bb 😆

Rafa and Roger just go together perfectly

@@hamzawihamza6842 tg

No? 😂👍🏻😂

Agree.

As Patrick McEnroe noted, the joy with which Federer plays makes him special. His happiness brings happiness to others.

Djokovic the owner of tennis

Federer the creator of tennis

4) Novak : GOAT of Tennis

Would never forget the moment how hard I screamed when Fed grabbed that championship point in RG, and my neighbour knocked on my door and complained!

@jcorb Yeah I doubt he gives two shits who he beats to get that championship. Only the fans care.

@@invictuz4803 Not really sure about that. Losing against Nadal in the 2008 Wimbledon finals was a huge blow to him (remember the tears), pretty sure he would have rather won against him at RG in order to settle the score. This finals against Söderling felt a bit flat, but well at the end of the day he still has that trophy.

Yes. You could see how much that meant to him to finally obtain that title. He earned it. Yet, even if he hadn’t, and despite his not having gotten Olympic gold (in singles) but “only silver” (and gold in doubles)-even if those moments had not been realized, he would still be just as great. His love for the sport is rivaled by none other. Forever to be one of the GOATs regardless of his having won a slam or two-or a few-less than Rafa and Novak.

@jcorb I’m a huge Rafa (and Roger) fan. Many would disagree with you on that. But I can feel what you mean in terms of it not seeming as triumphant. Yeah but no. That was still a huge moment for him, and for the tennis world at large. Certainly his fans.

Djokovic is statistic Goat

@@bos4085 not just stats Nadal and Djokovic beat federer in h2h and GS title… Tennis is not an artistic sport like gymnastic, so federer can’t be the goat. How can you be the goat if 2 players beat you more and have more important title than you…

@@lnz971 because there are subtleties to the game and history that goes beyond just h2h and stats. The game evolved, and he evolved to adapt. He stayed relevant despite being older than the other 2. Do you honestly think Djokovic wins US Open 2010, US Open 2011 and Wimbledon 2019 if they were the same age? One point made all the difference. One lapse in concentration was all it took to change these results. Flip these results, and the h2h is in feds favour.

@@carloss___77 prime fed rapes him

@@carloss___77 Alcaraz > Djokovic

For the queens that pretty logic he choose bale over the queens…

While Roger is the most aggressive of the 3, Nadal is still a very aggressive baseline mixed with all court play. Djokovic is more of a counterpuncher but he also has good all court skills too. Ig their main style of play still favors technology today though, but don't think that they're only defensive. They have long rallies since they're both good at defense and offense all over the court, though typically the back.

Rubbish

Nadal and Djokovic beat federer in h2h and GS title… Tennis is not an artistic sport like gymnastic, so federer can’t be the goat. How can you be the goat if 2 players beat you more and have more important title than you…

@@lnz971 Federer is the GOAT. Nadal & Djokovic are also a generation younger than Federer, it was never an equal contest, especially after 2012. Yet the only player who has beaten Nadal & Djokovic the most is Roger Federer despite being far older than those 2. Tennis is not an artistic sport yes, still Federer made it look like artwork, the ease & grace with which he has won all those monumental records & titles, the way he has single handedly elevated the sport to this unfathomable new heights & how dominating & invincible Federer was in his prime, is what makes him the GOAT.

@@peterparker01idiot comment

The Never say die attitude applies more to Nadal.

@@jeffreykaufmann2867 it applies to both. Federer saved match points in a match over 20 times in his career, came back from two sets to love down 10 times, came back despite major doubts and his body and age struggles in both 2012 and then 2017 and 2018 in comebacks when most thought he was done at the top of the sport. It applies to both Fed and Nadal

@@AnthonyHirsch I agree

@@jeffreykaufmann2867 👍

@Anthony Hirsch Nadal came very close to winning his first Wimbledon title in Straight Sets. But Federer took it to five. What's remarkable is that right after Nadal lost Set 4 his body language didn't show any negativity. He looked liked he won the Set. Any other player would have folded in the 5th.

It’s blatant that if there wasn’t 2 of the 3 there would have one man with more than 40 GS titles because they were so much dominant compared to other eras
