I don't understand what happened with Davydenko in this match. He was in the best moment of his career, a great end of 2009 season (Shanghai, Masters Cup) and a good start in 2010 (Triumphs in Doha vs Roger and Rafa). This Australian Open was a great chance for him. After this match, his career collapsed.

Technically, his career collapsed in the Rotterdam SF a month later, when he fell on his wrist, and it was misdiagnosed as a wrist sprain. And after an MRI at IW, it turned out that he actually had a fractured wrist. After that, he was never the same player again.

+Ema Rosales I feel that Davydenko had a "mental problem" against Federer. Always in the big matches, excepting the Shanghai 2009, he was very shy and he wasn't go for his shots. Another match comes to mind, in RG semifinal or quarterfinal, He was taking off Federer all the time with a great crosscourt Backhand playing incredible, but in the important points he felt so much the pressure. Was a shame he can't win a Grand Slam, another remarkable players who did not this were Nalbandian, Rios, Soderling.

Felipe Navarrete It was London 2009 and then Doha 2010, where he finally beat Fed. He was more primed than ever to finally beat Fed in a GS with this newfound belief that he could beat him. And through the first set and a half, he was working his game plan to perfection, being aggressive and taking balls early. And then, he failed to convert BP for a 4-1 lead, and just went away for almost an hour, as he lost 13 straight games

Sure, Federer played the big points well, but he didn't play as well as he is capable of and he gave Davydenko lots of opportunities to grab control, but Davydenko couldn't, especially this match.

Dr. Ivo is still out there. Roger is the last guy standing from his generation. His generation does not get too much respect. But Hewitt's game got hurt when the baseline power game took over. He was great against grinders and serve and volleyers. See Sampras' comments about Hewitt. Safin and Nalbandian probably had the most talent, but mental issues held them back. Roddick had the drive but there were significant flaws in his game - court positioning and back hand. The other guys I mentioned just did not have a well rounded enough game to beat Federer. For Fed, he wants to go out on top to show that he could handle the best of the subsequent generation, ie Djokovic, Nadal and Murray. Please tell me any names I missed from Fed's generation. Wawrinka, Monfils, Baghdatis and Tsonga are in between Fed's generation and Nadal/Murray/Djokovic's generation.

Perhaps Tommy Haas or Richard Gasquet can also be in that talk, but Davydenko's credentials are much better than those two. Shame he hasn't won one.

He was in the best moment of his career, a great end of 2009 season (Shanghai, Masters Cup) and a good start in 2010 (Triumphs in Doha vs Roger and Rafa). This Australian Open was a great chance for him. After this match, his career collapsed.

Technically, his career collapsed in the Rotterdam SF a month later, when he fell on his wrist, and it was misdiagnosed as a wrist sprain. And after an MRI at IW, it turned out that he actually had a fractured wrist. After that, he was never the same player again.

+Ema Rosales I feel that Davydenko had a "mental problem" against Federer. Always in the big matches, excepting the Shanghai 2009, he was very shy and he wasn't go for his shots. Another match comes to mind, in RG semifinal or quarterfinal, He was taking off Federer all the time with a great crosscourt Backhand playing incredible, but in the important points he felt so much the pressure. Was a shame he can't win a Grand Slam, another remarkable players who did not this were Nalbandian, Rios, Soderling.

Felipe Navarrete It was London 2009 and then Doha 2010, where he finally beat Fed. He was more primed than ever to finally beat Fed in a GS with this newfound belief that he could beat him. And through the first set and a half, he was working his game plan to perfection, being aggressive and taking balls early. And then, he failed to convert BP for a 4-1 lead, and just went away for almost an hour, as he lost 13 straight games
Davydenko was in the peak of his career here. Beat Nadal in Shanghai, beat Federer in London and won the YEC, then got another win over Federer just before this and was a serious contender in this Sam before this topsy-turvy match.

Yeah Federer stopped his run. All the Davydenko wins wasnt in grand slams.
I do miss Davydenko on court. Such pleasant personality. Love the smiles they gave each other at the exchange. He is humble, diligent and plays good tennis.
Overall, the entire fall of 2009 was almost perfect for Davy. Titles in Shanghai and London also fell there and it was certainly one of the highest levels any player has shown. And if he had come to life long enough, it would have been very interesting to watch him against 2011 Novak.
2010 could've been the year of Davydenko and Del Potro if it wasn't for those damn wrist injuries, they both ended 2009 in a stellar way and owned everyone. At least Delpo managed to come back but Niko was really a pleasure to watch in his good days

Yeah, very unfortunate. DelPo needed wrist surgery, and Davydenko actually fractured his wrist in Rotterdam, but kept playing on. And couple those losses with the loss of Soderling to mono in the summer of 2011. If these guys were all able to have stayed healthy, the entire landscape of the ATP would have been different. Such a shame.

I remember watching this match. Davydenko was crushing Fed for a set and a half. It was like he had a cheat code. Then Fed just started hitting it up the middle and making Davydenko create all the angles. Before you know it, Davydenko was shanking everything. One of the craziest matches I ever saw.

That early 80s generation, Fed beaten them very thoroughly until the game become defensive, hence he has the mental advantage. For some reason since 2007 Fed didn't continue to improve his game contented by the slam count.
Federer dropped only two sets in this AO one to Andreev one To Nick
Yep. The USO 2006 was a bit lobsided. 2007 USO was close, and Davydenko should have won at least one set. 2010, AO, 2007 FO, and 2006 AO were Davydenko's best shots at beating Federer and potentially winning a slam, but he (IMO choked). Sure, Federer played the big points well, but he didn't play as well as he is capable of and he gave Davydenko lots of opportunities to grab control, but Davydenko couldn't, especially this match. I think Davydenko's serve was the one shot that let him down.

+ACHUTA SRIDHARAN That generation is coming to an end with Nalbandian, Safin, Roddick, Gonzalez, Ferrero, Davydenko, Blake, Fish, Grosjean, Soderling, Stepanik, Clement, Ancic, etc. And Hewitt will be retiring at the 2015 AOpen. Dr. Ivo is still out there. Roger is the last guy standing from his generation. His generation does not get too much respect. But Hewitt's game got hurt when the baseline power game took over. He was great against grinders and serve and volleyers. See Sampras' comments about Hewitt. Safin and Nalbandian probably had the most talent, but mental issues held them back. Roddick had the drive but there were significant flaws in his game - court positioning and back hand. The other guys I mentioned just did not have a well rounded enough game to beat Federer. For Fed, he wants to go out on top to show that he could handle the best of the subsequent generation, ie Djokovic, Nadal and Murray. Please tell me any names I missed from Fed's generation. Wawrinka, Monfils, Baghdatis and Tsonga are in between Fed's generation and Nadal/Murray/Djokovic's generation.

3:45 !! when it changed......that was most important Scene in the whole tournament of FedEX
I'm not 100% sure if Davydenko would have won the match had he gone up a double break in the 2nd set, but the way he was playing and the way Federer wasn't playing, the odds were certainly in his favor. It still would have been tough with Tsonga in the semis and Murray in the final, but he's played those guys good in the past, so Davydenko could have had a realy good crack at winning his first major. He also had some other tough losses to Fed in the USO, here in AO a few years back, RG 2007...
Both players showed tenacity
Just look at that from Federer he took one set to "get" davydenko's game (who was playing awesomely) and won that game. Pure gols
For brief moment in time we saw superdavy get exposed to the world, then go back into the cage
Nice quality man!
Davydeno on fire, but RF truly ablaze :) :) I really miss this stuff. RF had so many shots from bistering forehands to deft dummies in the blink of an eye.
The uploader edited out the point (probably to make Federer look better), but in the 2nd set Davydenko missed a super easy winner to break Federer for the 2nd time that set, and from that point on Davydenko completely choked away the match and his career and ranking nosedived immediately afterwards. That super easy missed winner destroyed his mentality and his game never recovered and his serve became even worse than Elena Dementieva's lol.

It seems the outer courts at the AO actually play faster than the show courts. And when the roof is closed on Laver, for example, the conditions actually get even slower, instead of faster. But the plexicushion is like sandpaper on the show courts. Hence, why we got a 6-hour grindfest final in 2012.

I think it was injuries that were his downfall. The man was capable of winning a couple slams, and yes, Federer did stop him at slams on numerous occasions. I think him getting the wrist injury a couple months after this tournament really messed his career up. Apart from Murray, he is certainly the best player of this era not to have won a slam. Perhaps Tommy Haas or Richard Gasquet can also be in that talk, but Davydenko's credentials are much better than those two. Shame he hasn't won one.

Peak is not the right term then. The peak of someone's career is when they play their best tennis, not what their age is. Ferrer is 30 but he's playing the best tennis of his life, so would you call 2003-2006 his peak even though he was worse then? Davy was playing at is best and if he had won here, who knows, maybe he would have won the Slam (very likely with the way he was playing). And I didn't say this match ruined Davydenko's career.
