No, this was the wrong decision by the umpire. The line judge wrongly stopped play by calling out on a shot which was in, so the point should have been replayed. After Soderling played his shot, the line judge wrongly stopped play, then Soderling challenged with his ball in mid air, then Soderling's dead ball went out at Federer's end, then there was no call because the ball was dead, then Federer tried to challenge something though it isn't clear to me whether he was challening the call on his shot (in but called out) or the non-call on Soderling's dead-ball shot (out but not called out because the line judge knew it was a dead ball).

Really quite a close match and not the thumping the title of this video suggested. When I first saw Federer beat Sampras at Wimbledon and even when losing to Tiger Tim Henman he seemed more fierce the way he played. His groundstrokes were stunning scary bullets with pinpoint accuracy. Later he obviously mastered the game a lot more and became more graceful and elegant but never saw that same menacing play. Maybe with the exception of his Indian wells win over Rafa fresh from beating the Spaniard in the Australian open. Anyway I'm no tennis expert but that was my impression.

Söderling was the only player ever having the courage to call out Nadal's compulsive behavior that made him consistently violate the time rule but umpires never did something about it. He also beat Nadal, which goes to show that if you refuse to play by Nadal's rules, you have a chance. You have to accept being the enemy though of the world of tennis.

That guy was an example of the tennis’ brats.

Roger's footwork is always a thing of beauty..but that FH DTL at 9:37? Soderling was expecting Roger to go back across court and got caught flat-footed watching the ball go behind him. Aside from a lack of imagination from the current players - every single one of them has crappy footwork. Many of them admit to watching Roger's old matches on YT. Instead of trying to "copy" Roger's inventive shots - they should copy his footwork. "He's like a ballet dancer - like Baryshnikov!"

It'd be weird if a spaceship landed outside the stadium and the aliens sat down to watch the tennis match, but they would say "well, it's Federer" and everyone would nod agreement.

Not mono, that was only a cover for chronic fatigue and anxiety disorder. Anyhow, I remember vividly the post-game interview after one of his last matches against Roger, where he had once again been outplayed. He said he always felt he had a bad day against Federer and was often frustrated with himself for not being able to bring his A-game when it mattered. "Until recently, when I realised that it is Roger who makes me play like this". Thinking also of another Swede, Jonas Björkman, who at No. 4 in the world and having played Sampras, Nadal and many other greats said that the only player he ever felt helpless against was Federer. "Against even Sampras, I always had a plan and knew when I stepped onto the court that I stood at least a fair chance of winning. I never felt that with Federer".
