there was a time, when federer seemed to have an exclusive special contract with the laws of physics, allowing him to do things that no one else can.

There will never be another one like him: beautiful strokes, creativity, movement, athletic intelligence, and a really nice person. The full package!

what really stands out is how early federer used to take these balls. nowadays players stand 5 m behind the baseline half the time but he used to regularly play kind of half volleys right at the baseline. insane touch and feel for the ball to pull these off.

He made watching tennis like watching a circus and a freak show. None of the present day matchups have anything near the excitement of a standard Federer match. Federer continued to excite fans with his style of play, right up to retirement. Djokovic has me totally bored. Nadal as well, if not for the late drama.

​@@scout7060 That "Federer remains unsurpassed for many things" is told to you by the majority of those who work professionally in tennis, including players and former players. Then the examples you gave make no sense as 3 players have been nominated who have all won at least 20 slams, the numbers must be considered but they must not be considered "only" them, only accountants do it, certain sofa fans, those who they have never picked up a racket, and so on.

The most sublime backhand of ALL TIME.

So glad I could see Roger live. He got a standing ovation just for entering the court. Best player ever.

So wonderful to watch. The feet, just amazing. I'm sorry to say I entirely missed the Federer era. I had given up on watching tennis in the 90s as it was pretty dull. Really the GOAT, the Fred Astaire of tennis, no matter the titles.

I'm lucky ! i saw Michael Jordan , Zinedine Zidane and Roger Federer !

Sir Roger federer golden legend in universal love you so much miss you so much teniss history best player ❤❤❤

7:54 Haha the legendary racquet throw from Roddick, he was (and still is) such a likeable guy.

No one is more graceful, skillful, effortless and more beautiful a game than the ultimate shot maker Roger Federer in my opinion..

I miss him, I really miss him on the pitch. I could watch several hours of this master doing it's work.

GOAT

Federer no fue solo la EFICACIA, sino lo más importante en todo, fue LA BELLEZA DE SU JUEGO...eso es lo que lo distingue y distinguía...otros fueron más fuertes aquí o acullá aspecto...pero el tenía LO MÁS HERMOSO Y PLÁSTICO... un regalo...

pure artistry. poetry in motion

That half volley against Zverev is my favorite. The balance is amazing.

He really is pure tennis.

Sports are entertainment and in that sense Roger is the GOAT - most entertaining to watch of all time. Nadal a close 2nd. Joker might be the all-time best in terms of results, but he is the least entertaining all-time great I can think of.

What a magician !

A Kingdom of talent. Remarkable. Thanks for the video.

The best of the best!

Roger has won everything by talent, Nole by keeping the ball in play, so did Nadal. They were lucky Roger is much older plus slow courts helped them to win more. There's only one genius, maestro in tennis.

Indeed - the slowing of the court services is the main factor in Federer not winning another 4-5 majors imo, but just imagine if the two-handed backhand had been banned 20-years ago!

Worth remembering that the smash off the smash vs Roddick was before Federer had won his first GS. A preview of the talent yet to be realised...

We all miss him

Loving some of the previous comments. I, too, have seen these points multiple times. This time, I took particular notice of the expressions on the faces of the opponents. They range from Djokovic's smile to Roddick's throwing the racket. The best may have been Serra's, "What spaceship did YOU arrive on?"

Absolutely. The shot Fed hit against Agassi was the most ridiculous scrape this pancake flip lob back…if it could have been measured the ball may have been already past Fed. Never seen anyone hit the ball when it is already past them and out of reach. My mind still has difficulty with several of his shots, and they are not miss-hits!

The no look down the line against Gulbis is still one of my favorite all time shots from him or anybody. I saw that live and it blew my mind! The genius the Maestro! He is the greatest IMHO. The greatest.

It's been said that Roger wasn't using a racquet, he was using a magic wand.

There is at least hundreds of other impossible ones he did, on top of my mind that were not included in this one, tweener against djokovic, running lob against djokovic (simmilar to one he did on roddick in this video) front tweener lob vs querry in wimbledon, running half volly against roddick at australian open, and one i remember that made me laugh how absurd it is, in brisbane doubles he stretches and bearly manages to get to the lob and puts so much spin that ball drops in opponent side and back to his.... breaking laws of physics... G.O.A.T.

A sportsman from an other world. There's tennismen and there's is Federer.

Half volley shots are just insane. Players are staying 4-8 feet behind baseline. This guy stays at the baseline and just pumps half volley balls back. Incredible. I don’t care who goat is. But if there two matches on at the same time, we all will go and watch Roger. Sorry Djoko fans.

And all done with such grace and ease. That's the most amazing part.

The actual speed of those shots in person vs the foreshortened camera effect (for TV which make the viewing possible ball movement but appear significantly slower), were what made both stab volleys incredible.
