The real shame is the lack of true diversity of surfaces - not just to make things better for Our Rog. Clay sped up, grass really slowed down, carpet disappeared, hard courts slowed down. All a bit samey, all the players now play an all-court game. Diversity slowly disappearing....

Brings a tear to my eye seeing Roger playing like this. We really will never see his likes again. You want to learn to play tennis? Watch this again and again! The master!

In the whole realm of sport, very few things are as enjoyable as Federer in full flow. It's like watching a perfectly choreographed dance. Effortless, beautiful, and magical. He may have lost most of his records, but this is why is the greatest of all time in my eyes.

Absolutely. He's almost always in the right place at the right time. He knows when to attack, when to dial up the pace, when to play defense, and when to switch it up by playing a well timed slice, a drop shot, or turning defense to offense when the opponent is caught off guard.

I'm a Rafan and I think tennis is a game of different styles. You have Rafa's speed and ferocious banana forehands, you have Djokovic's sliding passing shots and you have Murray running around the ball like there's no tomorrow and I appreciate them all. But Roger is so brilliant, watching his graceful first strike tennis just makes you feel happy. Tennis misses you Roger

You can either be a good player or entertainer but if you have to be both, you have to be RF... Nothing's more beautiful in Tennis than watching Federer's game...

No dull moment watching tennis with Roger playing

When RF mix up power, accuracy, elegance, and plus some surprising tricks, it’s truely a masterpiece. There is no one else can do the same thing, not before, not after, not even close

He really revolutionize the offensive shots in men's tennis, he hits such a deep shots in consistent pace. I know Del Po hits fastest forehand but there's no way in hell he can keep it consistent with the same speed the way Roger has been doing all this year, that FH of Roger is such a weapon, the mighty liquid whipped.

The Maestro. Tennis incarnate. The greatest _pure_ player and shotmaker to have played this most beautiful game. Recent partisan tennis fans nowadays won't stop complaining that Fed fans have "moved the goalpost" from the number of slams to "most elegant player". What they don't realize is that, to so many of the Fed's fans, it was really his _elegance_ that drew them to him. The aesthetic he single-handedly created and revealed stirred them in a way they hadn't been stirred before. Their natural, human but dormant "aesthetic instinct" (to see beauty in the mobile human form) was awoken by the Fed's sublime play. *_That_* is why millions on millions tuned in to watch him. *_That_* is why Johnny Mac was calling him "probably the greatest player in our sport" during the USO 2004 final (when he was still on 3 slams and going for a 4th). *_That_* is why DFW wrote his famous 'Roger Federer as Religious Experience' way back in 2006, when the Fed still had fewer than 10 slams. So, yes, tennis is a sport that is about winning and losing and about numbers and Rafa and the Djoker have eventually been able to put up (slightly) greater numbers, mostly because they came in the Fed's wake and had something to aim for. (Also, to make a sport like tennis _just_ about numbers seems very limiting.) And yes, the Djoker is winning slams and Masters 1000s in his 30s, but the Fed did that *first* _while_ playing the Djoker himself. (It's worth noting that Cincinnati was missing from the Djoker's kitty purely on account of the Fed and that he won it finally when Fed was 37 (!) and going through a rough patch with his wrist. With the Fed not even playing the next time, the Djoker promptly went and won it again.) Take anything in modern post-wooden-racket tennis (outside of RG and Rafa) and Fed is either the pioneer or the greatest exponent or both. And _that_ badge is something that will always remain with him. He will forever remain the gold standard for tennis play. Nobody will *_ever_* combine success with aesthetics in the way the Fed did for about 16 remarkable years (2003-2019). All hail the Fed! 🙏

Whenever I need my spirits lifting, I watch this. It never fails to lighten my mood. RF is simply the best.

The man that single handedly stifled the entire atp tour careers (excluding Rafa, Novak few years later ) for two decades, hope he plays for another 5 years once he starts his comeback trail because then older I get, the more appreciation I have towards Roger and his style. He makes it look easy, effortless, and elegant.

Right? Very rarely can a player play good, winning tennis, and yet, also beautiful tennis at the same time. Most players are one or the other. You can either play ugly, winning tennis (like Nadal, Soderling, or Gulbis, to name a few examples) No knock on Nadal - he just doesn't have a conventional style. Or, you can play beautiful tennis like Gasquet or Wawrinka's backhands, Feliciano's S&V game, Dimitrov's "baby Fed" strokes, or Santoro's double-handed forehands and slices. However, Federer's brand of tennis is both effective in terms of results, and aesthetically pleasing to the eye! Which is why it's so mesmerizing to watch.

Whenever he retires, Tennis will loose his biggest ambassador and the most loved player of all time. For me he is the Greatest of All Time. He might not win the most titles due to many reasons, but no one else will ever inspire so many people around the world of every age to play tennis. Of course Nadal and even Djokovic are essential for this historic rivalry and for the increased popularity of tennis but Roger Federer started it all. I love all three of the big three and I believe who ever retires first will be missed by everyone. So please Roger, come back again for one last celebration of Tennis, friendship, elegance, rivalry, fascination and love for this amazing sport!

Tes, but the GREAT thing about Federer is that this could equally be any number of runs e.g Indian Wells, Miami, Flushing Meadows, etc... GOAT

Insane. Every opponent was frustrated with his dominant but calculated plays. Murray at 6:40 was about to go berserk. lol

This just shows the level of competiton Djokovic faced in that 2015 was way higher that Fedal fangirs suggest. Way higher than in any other year since 2011, than maybe 2011 itself. Federer was reborn in 2015, played some great stuff. Would have beaten anyone at the Us Open and Wimby, appart from Djokovic.
