When Federer's last match was just done, the commentator spoke all of the fans' hearts by saying, "He did not invent the game but at times it felt as if he had." Thank you Roger and Trevor for such an amazing interview! ❤️❤️❤️

That last line: “Federer is a great ambassador for human beings” That’s exactly what he is and that’s what makes him the best.

An impeccable example of a classy sportsman and human being.

I’m Spanish, and of course…I’m a Rafa’s fan… but I can say, on behalf of all the Spanish people. ROGER WE LOVE YOU. It’s simply impossible not to love you. Not just for your tennis, but also for your human quality. BTW, this is probably the best interview I’ve ever seen. Congrats.

This is the first time I've seen Trevor genuinely fangirl over his guest and I loved every minute of it. Amazing men. Everything Trevor said about Roger is absolutely true: class act, humble, true goat.

I can’t imagine anyone else living up to this man’s grace in the sport of tennis! Regardless of title, he has so many amazing qualities that make it so beloved. Trevor said it, such a great ambassador for human beings!!

Roger is such a humble guy and that just makes him loved by many fans. Once he came to a restaurant where I work - during covid where we all have to show our certificate and ID to be checked in. There was a girl who was checking ID and we were all wearing a mask. She asked him for his ID which he forgot in the car even though he was recognised by many employees due to the fact that he is our regular guests. He actually went back to get his ID and once the girl noticed him she was so embarrassed and apologised many times but Roger was just a man and he acted like one. SO MUCH RESPECT for him!

Roger has demonstrated on many occasions that a modest or low view of one's own importance; & a healthy dose of humbleness, outshines even the greatest talent and arrogantly superior superstar in any realm. Your quiet & graceful talent has captured our hearts & minds forever. Thank you.

Fed was the very first athlete I was able to recognize and look up to as a kid. I admired his grace and humbleness both on and off the court. As successful and great as he was (and still is) he has never been disrespectful. He is truly the GOAT

At last a talkshow where everything isn't staged and the conversation is natural That's really great

So lucky to have seen Roger play three times. And that he was generous to give us a very special signed photo to my mom (one of his biggest fans). Watching him play literally helped my mom cope with the passing of my father, and gave us so many special family moments together. I will never forget the look of sheer joy on her face when she actually got to see him play in person. Thank you Roger. And thank you Noah!

Federer is a man with CLASS!! 🤗

Roger getting chocked up while talking about asking Rafa to play dubs with him is so amazing. I think I big a reason why fans adore Roger isn’t so much about his records or even his game. It’s the emotions he showed whether he won or lost without pride. He’d cry when he won, he’d cry when he lost without any shame. He was the epitome of a sport that, just like any other, is full of hyper masculinity. Being tough and self assured is the standard. He would be vulnerable in the eyes of millions and not for a minute care about his image as a man. And that endeared him to so many and not once did anyone think less of him as a male athlete. I think every male athlete should look to him as an example of a peRFect competitor.

He smiles throughout the whole show and that is what I love about him.

Two of my favourite people of all time. Wholesome, honest and decent people. The world needs more people of integrity and stature like them.

How often does a 22 mins interview feels like too short! Elegance in everything Roger does and who can be a better interviewer than Trevor. Thank you for a wonderful interview.

I've had the great fortune of meeting Roger Federer twice and I can tell you he's every bit as genuine, humble and affable when conversing with a single stranger as he is on camera with millions watching - he's real. And for nearly 300 weeks - covering 2004-2009 and most of 2017 - he played a level of tennis no one else has matched. Rafa and Novak are breaking his records in their way - and it is great to see how happy Roger is for them (as we all should be) - but even they will tell you: Federer's peak tennis was like no one else.

I once saw Sampras playing serve volley game, thinking it could not be matched by anyone. A year or so later up comes this young man, playing the most beautifull game of tennis, with wich he has graced us all in astonishement, jaw dropping style of play. Federer the GOAT of tennis!!!

You just can't help smiling through the whole interview. Thank you for everything, Mr Federer! 🥲

I couldn't stop Smiling through out the video 😌 Roger is just an amazing human being.

What a wonderful human being. He must have had great parents. We’re lucky to have experienced him.

Trevor did the perfect ending by saying "you're a great ambassador for human beings" 💖

Classiest athlete ever and there will never be another Roger Federer in tennis. If he was on you had to watch, because he made the sport both incredibly athletic and beautiful at the same time. He's beloved because of his humility and self-awareness.

I would love to know if the Wimbledon security guard ever realized afterwards that it was Roger or if she's been able to see this interview. That would be a hilarious story to tell 😂

Roger choked up talking about telling rafa. They keep melting my heart❤

I was lucky enough to be at the Laver Cup for that last match playing doubles with Nadal. I flew 8,000 miles to London just for this, and it was worth it. Everyone was crying and it was so emotional and bittersweet. I've been a fan of Roger's for so many years and so much of my life has been watching his matches. There will never be another tennis player who is so beloved for all he is and does.

That Wimbledon security guard story is hilarious. If that could happen to somebody like Roger Federer and did not take any offense from it, who are we to make any fuss if it happens to us? What a great man!

i'm not gonna lie, I cried when he talk about the last match with Rafa. Amazing interview, love how smooth is was. Roger forever the best ❤

Roger is "class" personified...

That story of him going to Wimbledon had me rolling on the floor 🤣🤣🤣 “please I won this tournament 8 times 🥺” 🤣🤣🤣 Not only do I enjoy seeing him play on courts, but I always love listening to him talk during interviews! Classy and down to earth, as usual!! ❤ Also, I can’t believe it’s the end of an era for Roger and tennis AND also for Trevor and the daily show! That’s the best wrap up interview we could ever have!! 👏🏻

You just can't help smiling through the whole interview. Thank you for everything, Mr Federer!

amazing how the guest‘s not getting interrupted and is able to speak freely - so rare with US interviews..

Props to the guard lady for not letting ANYONE enter without a membership card!😂🤣

A great ambassador for human being. I think this is the most fitting description of Roger Federer

The story of him not wanting to brag about his records to get into the Wimbledon compound just resonates with me so much. When I was in my 20s I used to work for the son of a Billionaire, and the family had businesses and schools all across the UK. Once we were entering one of their family schools and the receptionist asked politely who we were (in order to get through the entrance) and without a hesitation, my boss said "I'm Michael A*******, my name is on the building". And although it was on the hand, slightly comical, I remember the receptionist was very put off for his brashness. A lit of humbleness goes a long way in life.

He's all class. What an ambassador. What a role model.

Two of Switzerlands finest. 🇨🇭

Man Trevor is getting some legendary interviews on his way out.

Roger was definitely one of the strongest and smartest players of the game. He is so humble about it too!

In terms of his incredible abilities and skills, legendary records, inspirational positive attitude, personality, professionalism, and his on and off court behaviour, Roger is surely the greatest sports professional personality of all time!

We've been lucky to witness a golden age of tennis with him Nadal and Djokovic

“You’re a Great Ambassador for human beings” the best of compliments, Great interview!

Roger Federer is my favorite athlete and an inspiring human being.

Just watched the Federer-Sampras Wimbledon match the other day… They were like mirror images of each other…amazing.

Roger Federer is just a force to reckon with! It's hard to imagine this level of humility and this much achievement/fame living in the same body! He'd always be loved! Always!

Only about to start watching, but I already know this interview's going to be phenomenal

I've always loved Roger. He's the whole package. He'll always be number one in my opinion.

So proud to be Swiss, to have such an amazing, classy and humble person Like RF, TO BE ONE OF THE GREATEST SPORTMAN IN THE TENNIS CIRCUIT. Bravo Roger...HOP SCHWEIZ!

There will never be another Federer in tennis. He was and will always be one of the greatest ambassadors for the sport. He had an aura about him on court and made the sport look way too easy for all of us watching at home-that was until we stepped on court for ourselves and tried to swing at a few! I was definitely a victim of the Fed effect!

9:12 Roger almost cried when talking about calling his great rival and friend Rafa. Love you Roger❤

The one and only Roger. How we miss him on the tennis court!

Pure class. Somehow forgot to check on him for a long time since his retirement but every appearance is just so well planned and delivered. The guy's a natural.

By far my favorite moment on the Daily Show

I'm fully convinced that the guests for the past couple of weeks and now - they're just a list of people that Trevor loves and/or are his most wanted guests, like Roger here, OBAMA, etc. It's funny to see, but also nice to see. Sad to see Trevvie go 😭.

This is my first time watching Roger Federer and I realized what exactly i missed out in my life. What a great man. ❤

I was writing some words, but why repeat what millions think and said about this extraordinary athlete and human being. I am 70 years old and this is the guy I followed religiously during the last 20 years. I can't tell I am the number 1 fan of Roger because there are maybe thousands that are "worse" than me" , but I I will be quite close. Thks Roger and thks to Trevor to show us its greatness in simple words.

He is in his own class. What an intelligent, eloquent man! He knows his worth, but he is still humble - a very rare quality nowadays.

One of the greatest ATHLETES of all time. Not just Tennis players.

I haven't seen Roger since he retired, I click on this video and now I'm crying. Man, what's with this guy. It feels like we're friends even though we've never met.

Miss you Roger . . . you have always been an inspiration and emotion for everyone in and out of the sports world. loved watching your games throughout. I am glad to be alive at the times of you and Rafa and Djokovic.

Roger is one of those players you never get tired of watching, straight sets or tie breaker his intensity and fluidity was magical. I wish him and his family happiness and health.

Such a wholesome human being. I've never spent this long watching him, let alone hearing him speak. He is so refreshing to listen to.

Humility...i mean everything Roger says from the word go, is just oozing of this quality. Such simplicity. Enjoying the moment, enjoying the game is another beautiful quality he talks of. Real sportsmen have these qualities i guess, you become larger than life.

Down to earth,humble and mental strong.

How does he remain so humble and down to earth??

9:13 Federer got choked up and then I did too. Great interview and I'm still in shock his career is over.

Love this man! Legend on and off the courts! I am so happy that my father was alive to see Fed (his favorite athlete of all time) win every one of his Slams. Fed was our favorite topic to chat about and some of the greatest memories of my father and I were watching his matches. My late dad would have also loved this interview. Thank you, Federer, for all the happiness you brought to our family and countless others around the world! ♥️

He is the biggest inspiration for me, I've been supporting/watching him since Wimbledon 2001 when he beat Sampras. I have lived and died every match ever since, I have loved Roger for 20 plus years. I wish him and his lovely family all the love and best in this world. #RForever

As a single mother in rural newengland and a lifelong tennis nut, i cant ever thank roger enough for helping me to raise such a wonderful human being b the ultimate exampleof someone so classy yet genuine, and down to earth, so wholesomeI , respectful but a fierce competitor , I taught my son to play- kept it fun and eventually we were driving all over new england to tournaments every weekend. Having roger as a role model( my son was born in 1997) was priceless and he is who he is today in no small part because of the impact of roger in our lives. Driving home from a tournament after a painful loss, i always had a tidbit or story a bout roger to tell him and learn from this exemplary human and athlete. Many people do not know for example that roger,s equanimity is an achievement- as a teen he was crying and throwing his racket with the “ best” of them but he found a way to cope with and learn from failure and disappointment and beyond that to enjoy every aspect of his life, such a truly joyous, happy hardworking and considerate human being and he was in this way so important to us as a role model; an athlete who actually deserved that title unlike many others who are excelling on the field only . Then in 2008 along came Obama the other great public figure who we were so grateful to have in our lives for his grace and humanity but thank you roger for the ecstasy of watching you play that we were so privileged to enjoy for too few years ( never enough!,!)and for your humanity, we owe you so much, cant imagine what our lives, rich as they are, would have been without you.

Can't imagine someone don't like this legend, that's what unique about him. We love you Roger

Roger Federer, the man of quality and skill. Committed sportsman to the game he represents. Forget how many grandslams he got, but his appearance in the court was a inspiration for the spectators . Thank you GOAT.❤🥰🥰🥰🥰

A role model and a legend…What humbleness❤

In 2003 he had me watching tennis..and imagine being able to watch him in 2022 ...and he was still great..

5:45 Correction. Rafa came along and got 21 and 22. Then Novak got 21.

Pure joy! Two of the best in their fields…And great people. You can tell that everything just flows from their hearts. You lift others up by being your best most authentic self around them.

This is the sweetest and genuine interview from Noah and Roger. Love! Love it!

Awesome interview. Best interview I’ve seen Trevor Noah do. Federer is unique in that he’s wildly charismatic without trying to be at all.

He is by no small measure, at least in my eyes, the Greatest. I watched tennis only because of him and the Williams sisters, and I fell in love with his style of playing, especially that wicked cool backhand. Doesn't matter if he doesn't have the most slams. His impact matters to me more.

brilliant interview indeed. Not just full of talent and achievements in tennis, but what a man: so balanced, driven, humble!

I miss his presence so much in the courts 😭😭 such a graceful human being!

Roger and Rafa made each other great, and then Novak entered the scene. They all added to the sport going next level athletically and competetively.

The GOAT of tennis, for me. 😍

Wow, not only a great tennis player a legend that inspired so many but also a charming man and an amazing human being. Thanks, Roger for coaching us in so many ways.

Roger the GOAT forever. Thank you Trevor for this . One of the best moments of our time.

I can watch these guys speak for hours...When panel discussions can last for hours why are these interviews too short...Too short to capture even a glimpse of greatness of this man...

Thank you Trevor for inviting RF for your amazing show. ❤️

I flew on a Thurday evening from U.S., arrive in London the next morning, went directly to O2, saw Him one playing one more time at Laver Cup and flew back home. I still believe it was dream. You impacted our lives tremendously, I owe you the great college tennis experience of my son and so many wonderful memories watching you practicing and playing in Cincy, every year from 2006. There were times you were practicing early morning, there was nobody else there, I closed my eyes just to listen how you were dancing on the clouds. Thank you Roger, you've been amazing all these years, you will always be.

That was an amazing interview, thank you Trevor and The Daily Show. I have to say, Trev, you'll be missed for these types of interviews alone!

Trevor has been on a legendary interviewing run recently! What a way to close out his show

The Wimbledon story is gold!! 😂

I am a huge fan of Roger Federer. I would definitely miss his graceful moves on the court but I am also happy that he is focusing on his family now. Trevor thank you for doing this interview. You did an excellent job. More power to both of you.

I was lucky enough to see Fed play in Cincinnati several years in a row. It is impossible to describe the athleticism of the way he moved around the court.

Trevor and Roger have a lot in common. Their moms are South Africans and their dads are from Switzerland.

I had the fortune to attend a final at Miami between Roger and Rafa . 5 sets Roger was down 2 sets and then Roger was Roger. Will never forget that day, that game and the GOAT and the Goat.

I adore Roger Federer! I've been watching him since when I was 7 years old. One of my greatest fulfillment in life was flying to London to watch you play your last match at Laver Cup 2022. It was a surreal moment, and thank you for the class act of sportsmanship you portrayed for over 2 decades. There'll be no one like Roger, Ever!

This is a top-5 interview of Trevor's whole run, amazing.

I've been a fan of Roger for over 20 years! Watched him lift every single one of his 20 grand slam trophies, and I was always left in awe of his talent and grace! I visited Switzerland last year and the country is just as perfect as Roger is :-) Tennis will never be the same without Roger Federer!

The Tennis GOAT looks so fresh😂😂and handsome 🥰🥰we really going to miss him😊#fan

There will never be another one like him. He truly is the GOAT. And an exceptional storyteller too!

GRRRREAT INTERVIEW!!! So, proud of Roger Federer. My son, (half Swiss from St. Gallen),who's now 31, has always been his fan and do his best to emulate the values he stands for when playing tennis:) Thank you, Roger.
