That AO Final point in the 5th may have been the best point of his entire career! And what's different about that point from all the others is that there is no fancy shots, and no laughing and smiling about the point afterwards. He was right in the thick of fighting off a friekin werewolf that wanted to tear his heart out and sit on his chest while eating it up letting all that delicious blood and gore drip down his chin. That's what made this win so great: Federer is not that type of person or player, yet he adapted himself and his game, and *HE* *WON*! He got away from that nightmare fiend, and he is probably going to leave with not just that trophy, but with the G.O.A.T. title - and rightly so. He is perhaps the greatest sportsman of all time, not just tennis player.

Jimmy Jefferson being a Rafa fan, I always considered Roger the GOAT of tennis before the AO title but now he deserves to be considered the GOAT. I don't give a sh*t about the weak era etc. he showed the world that he can play great in all surfaces having great results. Thank god we had these two legends playing against each other and giving the fans those epic matches. Lets hope now for the 10th RG for Rafa ;).

Diego Artazcoz Yeah they have definitely made one another better, especially Nadal making Roger have to get better. I would love to see another Nadal-Federer RG Final this year! Crazy is it may sound, I do think Federer would have a chance. Why? Because Nadal looked tired in the AO Final, which you really don't see with him. And RG requires more energy - unless he shortens the points, rather than choosing to grind down his opponents as a strategy. That's just IMHO.

Jimmy Jefferson but the recovery in clay is way easier and specially for Rafa than in hard courts. So we cannot compare the AO with RG in terms of physical strength.

"can you believe it" I can believe it, its Federer.

The Difference between Federer and a player like Djokovic is that Federer's game is much more spectacular. and elegant. He is a pleasure for the eyes. Unlike Djoko's robotic game that is oftenly big marathons and baseline points, Fed can do anything and his best points don't look like each other because he has so much creativity thanks to his technique and touch. Make no mistake, Djoko is a fantastic player but even if he ends up winning more grand slams than Federer, I will always consider Fed the GOAT.

Just some rallies that show why the GOAT is the GOAT. Ive been following the sport since Edberg and Lendl was at the top, and no1 has ever changed a sport like Federer. To me there are only a few players that are close to Federer, but they are only close. He has given me so many memorable moments but of course he couldnt have done that without Nadal, Djokovic and Murray.

there's something about that jump celebration after the tweener against djokovic... something about it.. makes my heart pump

Fed is amazing to watch. His balance, flexibility and recovery on points where he has to cover long distance to get to the ball is incredible. I’ve been playing 40+ years and realize how difficult it is to send the ball back at an extreme angle from the direction you are moving - never mind doing it multiple times on a single point. Even if you were/are a 5.0+ player, there are times when Fed does stuff that you say “ no way I could do that - no freakin’ way”.

@@molybdaenmornell123hopp5 Thank you Captain Obvious, for missing the point entirely, because nobody was talking about making their father just “satisfied”. The comment was rather about having their father as proud of them to the same extent of pride as Roger Federer’s dad is of his son. I’ll try to make this very easy for you to make up for your lack of imagination. The comment said, “I wish my father would be *this* proud of me”. The “*this*” being the extent of how proud Federer’s dad is of him. Continuing on, thinking rationally, a father isn’t going to be as proud of a son who just got a job as he would be proud of a son who is Roger Federer, a world-class tennis player. When I said “only one Roger Federer”, that is directed to how impressive Roger Federer is, a world-class tennis player. When I said “don’t count on it”, that is the conclusion of all of this, in that the commenter would have to be on the same order of magnitude as the extent of Roger Federer’s accomplishments for his father to reasonably be capable of being “*this*” proud of the commenter. I made this comment on the spur of the moment 3 years ago, so I must say that it’s hilarious how you would reply after 3 years with such a dull statement. I’m sorry for being oh so condescending to you in this comment, but perhaps you should reread yours first.

This Agassi Point need a Remastering in 4k :p this Point is Insane.

No airs and grases, no grunting, just sure brilliance...

The last tweener against Novak seems to be in every fucking list about RF's best point around the internet!!!!And i love it!!!

Thanks for a great collection, so hard to pick. I remember watching the AO point vs Hewitt - to me that was the Federer pivot, I then knew he'd go to number one and the announcers felt the same as their commentary switched from that moment on.

Beyond the cups, numbers, trophies i think he is the most natural talented tennis player of all time

When i watch Federer playing , i think tennis is easy , he plays as if the racket is a part of his body , he is so smart & so fast , he is the goat

I remember in September 2009 running back home with the hope of watching the end of the USO semi, turning on my tv and the first point I saw was that tweener passing shot. I turned my tv off. It had made my day.

He came from outside this world. Amazing

Are we sure he's even human? Insanity! How it is even possible to play like this?

Thanks for the incredible compilation of the Maestro's top points. To me, the most amazing is the one against Hewitt (?) in the AO, because his opponent is in a dominant net position and hits him with 4 impossibly difficult shots in a row. In a near tie is the Del Potro exchange, because he not only has to go coast to coast repeatedly to stay alive, but also manages to get off two consecutive impossible cross-court shots with perfect placement. The third best is the Roddick sequence. Nevertheless, I'm sure you could find an incredibly impressive second and third set of ten best points.

Yeah, this rally was played by Federer and Hewitt during fourth round of Australian Open in 2004, in the fourth set (2-2, 0-15) 🙂 I made a reasarch on KZread to find a detail moment of this action 😁

The God of tennis actually.

Sono completamente d'accordo con la classifica. Gli ultimi tre punti sono i miei preferiti e ci sono in moltissimi video dei top ten di Federer, ma l'ultimo è veramente un qualcosa di spettacolare. Senza parole. Good work! 💪

Roger will always be my favorite. So much respect for Nadal and Djokovic as well. Federer makes the game look so effortless. Nadal is the most humble and competitive fighter. Djokovic is the most clutch player in the big moments. They all have so many great qualities. All are UNBELIEVABLE. People need to stop getting caught up in the GOAT debate. Just enjoy and appreciate all of them. What Nadal achieves doesn't diminish the other two. That goes for Federer and Djokovic too. I'm hoping for some more epics between all of them.

Tennis FREAK!! A class apart. There will never be another you Mr. Federer. Absolute G.O.A.T.

RF ended Roddick's and Hewitt's career, being them younger than him. That's what I call a champion. And that's a fact.

Federer's backhand is the best ever.

Amazing

"El grande signore del tennis"....that sums it up quite nicely

Legend

I love it when he improvises with random squash shots.

God bless you, your Majesty... RF 🎾

*When Federer held all the records 5 years ago, the records were the only thing his fans stated as the supreme argument on the GOAT topic.* 🗣🗣🗣🏆+🥇+ 📈 *=* 🇨🇭🐐 And now that Djokovic keeps conquering all of his records, suddenly records don't matter anymore. Suddenly it's all about the beauty of the game they present on the court, and who is more likabel as a person. *Tennis is NOT figure skating, nor artistic swimming and will never be, not a popularity contest or Miss Universe either.* You can love someones personality and the way he plays more then others, but ultimately when they all retire, *accept it or not (it doesn't matter 🤷‍♂️) the GOAT will be the one with the most records, who ever that be!* *NUMBERS DON'T LIE* 🥇🏆📊

Totally agree with this Top 10

Love his style of tennis!!! GOAT!

This guy is the number one for me ... Number one for ever

Seemingly magical, he is.

Beginning at 5:20, Roger returns five winning shots from his opponent- the last for a winner (and from an overhead). Nobody in the game can do that (besides Roger).

I had no idea that insane last shot gave him match point in a GS semi. That's what sets that shot and the Nadal AO 17 rally apart - how important they were in the match. Fed famously a break down at that point in the AO final. I hope when he retires he does a speaking world tour or something. What an honour it's been living through his era.

I remember seeing that last one live. It was just truely unbelievable

Most of the long set rallies between federe and Djoker ends up with Federer winning it with an unbelievable shot at the end 🔥😍😅😅🙆

Great video! In my opinion, I think no.2 was the best shot of his career

very good video. Tennis is really fun. :D

7:34 best tweener ever:)

Roger the Wizard!!!🙏🏻💪🏻😍

Exactly why this the GOAT.

The 2017 AO Final point is, in my opinion the greatest point of his career and one of the greatest points of all time in its context. That match, if we can call anyone such, is to me the greatest tennis match ever contested. It had every element that made the 2008 and 2009 Wimbledon finals great, as well as the 2012 AO Final an epic one. Both players deserve all the praise they got for their display and are all time greats in their own merits. I used to not quite like Nadal because his emphasis on physical effort, but he has proved this year that he is much more than outlasting and overpowering other players with everything he has done. And Federer, well, he's Federer, I knew deep inside that he had something in himself that would propel him back to the top of the game and he didn't prove me wrong and gave me another few years to enjoy watching tennis with his displays. I still get chills on my spine while watching that 5th set point and I'm so glad I got to see it all live on TV, as I did his US Open tweener against Djokovic. Shoutout to both players for being the greats that they are!

Simply the best!

The best tennis player since now. Agassi said that Federer is the best player he had never play with.

GOAT

Simply "UNTOUCHABLE" #3rd

フェデラーの強さの秘密は幾つもあると思うが、タイミングを自在に操っているのは凄い。エンドコートからライジングだけでなくハーフボレー気味のショット、そして打球の頂点で叩いたり、敢えて最後の最後の低い打点で打ったり… こんな事をされたらライバル達は非常にタイミングが掴みづらいだろう。しかもスピードも自在に操っている。追い込まれた時に早目に追い付きすぐに切り返したり、追い付いてもツーバウンド直前に打ったり…見ていて楽しくワクワクするテニス。このプレースタイルが本来のテニスであり、想像力豊かな閃きは他の追随を許さない。
