I am a huge fan of Federer, and sad that he lost. But I'm also really happy for Tsitsipas....he has a very bright future ahead of him. Definitely could be some grand slams in his future.
This match was very eerily similar to when Federer beat Pete Sampras when he was a youngster! Tsitsipas will likely face Nadal in semi finals and I just can't wait to see what happens.
man i'm telling you this kid is coming man, been a fan of his game since his barcelona run last year. his biggest asset is not his game but his temperament, kid's just got ice in his vein, and I haven't seen him really fazed in a match so far in his career. he doesn't get too mad or too excited, just always got a calm and chill vibe to him on and off the court, sorta reminded me of borg (not because of the hair). Man after that 1st set's set point when the crowd called his ball out and he just kept his composure and moved on, that's the rarest gift to have in tennis, and I was like this one's different from the rest
He's showing the most promise of any of the younger stars, already in the top ten, he's not messing around. Also great that he attacks with serve and volley. Shows a strong mindset and the will to win. That's what it takes man. Greek athlete too. Heheh.
This is a bittersweet moment. I am a diehard Federer fan, so of course a defeat like this stings, it also doesn´t help that we didn´t see him at his best. However, I fully believe Stefanos deserved this one and am overjoyed to see a player like him (stylish, talented, tactical, etc.) get such an important win. I´m sad because my favorite player lost, and yet I feel happy for the future.
It's good to know that all of us federer fans will have a player to look forward to after federer retires. The future of tennis is definitely in good hands.
Wow, what a smart talking. I think this young man did his research very well and took the very best from legends of tennis and now he actually showed it to the world. I hope there will be more Tsitsipases in the future.
Θερμά συγχαρητήρια στον Στέφανο. Κατάφερε να κερδίσει τον θρυλικό Federer και έκανε περιφανή όλη την Ελλάδα. Ο Τσιτσιπάς είναι το νέο αστέρι του τέννις. 👏👏👏
I regrettably missed the game but made it for the MaC-interview.. then OMG.. a Spartan was born!! A new player with great PerSonaLity.. Mental focus to Seek&Destroy.. so innocently! Despite never seeing a single shot of his.. that interview.. This man will go FAR
I don't really agree. I think that first of all Tiafoe doesn't belong in that category. The guy has sucked most of his career, he needs to do good for a longer period before he should be put in that same category. Second of all those guys at the moment aren't good enough to have the future of Tennis be in good hands 'cause atm the top players are still the big 3, they're the ones to beat. Zverev has the best rank out of them but he also isn't the best at Slams.
Future of women's Tennis isn't in good hands though. The women are inconsistent and can lose at any stage. Stephens just lost to an unseeded player. That same player also beat Bertens but Bertens was on her way to win until the unforced errors kept on happening. Even Halep who's the current number 1 struggles against random players. Women's Tennis has never looked this horrible before. There were 2 young girls who looked impressive and then they faced Serena and Kvitova and they both showed them how mediocre they actually are.
@@sauravdwivedi6999 we are clearly watching a MEN'S tennis tournament here. What he stated is true regarding the men's tennis. If we were to watch a Women's tennis and talked about the future of tennis, it would've been a different story. Don't come and watch a men's tennis match and be triggered solely by your misunderstanding.
@@MalphasMikaelson why doesn't Tiafoe not belong there? If you look at the guys he's beaten including the world number 5 along the way then he's more than earnt his spot and only 21 years old at that. Hater!
The next big one! Tsitsipas! I just hope he is lucky! No injuries for example. He ‘s got everything else needed. And he is Greek! Born to be a fighter!
Nadal has been playing incredibly so far and Djokovic hasn't really been tested. I hope for a new winner, perhaps a young guy but I think it will be Novak or Rafa still. I am rooting for this guy now or Tiafoe, Zverev or perhaps even Nishikori but I am convinced Nadal will reach the final and on the other side of the draw it's going to be either Zverev but most probably Djokovic. The changing of the guard won't happen overnight, mark my words. I am a Federer fan and I really felt that Roger winning 3 years in a row would be a bit too much but he certainly could have done better today. I respect Nadal but I hope he won't win. I think he will though.
Federer lost this match when he blew the second set. He played the better tennis throughout the entire set serving well and creating 8 break points then crumbled in the tiebreak.
I was only talking about the second set. He was outplayed for the majority of the other sets including the 1st. If he had converted in the second up two sets to one different story of course.
Tsitsipas will be1st to win GS among all NexGen including Alexander, Thiem, Khachanov, Medevedev... I'll say at least 8+ GS. Just unbelievable pace of improvement!! 6'4" moves like 6' guys, Mentally very strong for 20 yr old very mature.
The 2nd straight year the NextGen Champion scores the upset of the tournament. Last year it was Chung over Djokovic but this was more impressive since Djoker was still coming back from his long layoff.
In addition it's quite eerie that Chung drew similarities to Djokovic's style of play with the flexibility, elasticity and the way he's able to stretch and reach while doing the splits etc. Now it's Tsitsipas drawing similarities to Roger.
Stefanos played his heart out and believed he could , really well played , not even talking about the 17 yr age difference and these players should be destroying players like the great Roger but the score line doesn’t seem so , the matter of the fact these next gen players seem only seasonal , only to have beaten top ranked players having a good day and a good game until the quarters and when it really matters , they don’t deliver , for instance everyone is talking about Tsitsipas and being compared to the match in 2001 (Fed vs Pistol Pete) , I mean cmon if you have to beat the Goat , you need to go on and win a grand slam and then talk , also if you happen to win , there needs to be consistency shown at the highest level at least if not winning , making it to the semis or finals in each grand slam where most of the next gen players crash out before the round of 16 , Juan del Porto is lethal no doubt but after wining 2009 we haven’t seen him maintaining that dominance like the big 3(Andy Murray was never in their league, not sure why was it called the big 4) , so these next gen players are seasonal , they come and go just like Grigor Dimitrov was the next big thing few years ago but failed to win any major, by now he should have at least won 1, there have been others too such as Thiem, Shapovalov, Khachanov,Coric , Zverev,but none perform when its required the most to raise their games,only way for the next gen players to probably win is when the big 3 retire, to close it up in the words of Roger ‘ Novak is right there at the top , Rafa is protecting the clay(well I would say at times the hard courts as well) and I sometimes give them a hard time too ‘
Seems like a nice guy stoked for him . Hated johns last comment though until these new guys consistently contest for the biggest prizes and win a few in the process of doing so then maybe you could say changing of the guard
This kid could do some great things in the near future. My only gripe is that he should have been placed in the QF to face Federer. Then Roger wouldn’t lose as many points. I’ll be observing him.
and now 4 years later he made the final but fell short to the Djoker! Hopefully his day will come one day once the errors and backhands gets worked on!
Nadal: "Anyway,what happened to you Roger? Did you got beaten up by this guy?" Federer: "Um nooo.I just..umm.." Djokovic: (you've got caught by your age) Federer "*I GOT CAUGHT BY MY AGE*"
I love the fact that some of these young players are up and coming and are challenging the stalwarts of the game. It is inevitable, and die hard Roger fans will need to get used to disappointments more and more as the years roll by. But can people please stop comparing Tsitsipas to Roger as though they are equals. Someone even had the nerve to call Tsitsipas GOAT. Yes he has potential, yes he may go on to win many slams, but comment on his style, comment on his attitude, compare his potential at the same age. But, Dkovich, Nadal, Zverev, Kyrgios etc have all beaten Roger in recent memory, and this kid still has a loooonnnngg way to go to prove himself , before he can reasonably be compared to Roger as a player...... P.S. Aus Open organisers, Please keep John away from the wine, or stop letting him interview players.
Bravo Tsisipas ! You were just great and I wish you to win Nadal! Godd luck Kid! Tou should teach a bit Shapovalov, less selfies and to be more serious and have fun like you do!!!
Time catches up with everybody. Roger needs to go out at the top... or near it. He should not go on too long, or his legacy will be tarnished by mugs who wouldn't have lived with him at his peak...
You know... if one idolized someone, then they try and learn most of the good things from their idols... however, in his case he too has had extreme temperamental issues... outbursts to be precise... djokovic is a great player... but he is not respected that much because of his outbursts... you know... these show a lot about your mind stability too... Nadal and Federer have been extremely composed and mature...
Well done Stefanos! Keep that way man, we are proud of you! Σού εύχομαι να σηκώσεις την Κούπα. Όπως και να 'χει είσαι σπουδαίος. Καλή συνέχεια. Δυνατά!!!
Fully deserved. Future superstar.... from a die hard Federer fan 👏👍
I love Federer, but this kid is GOOD! Great win, well deserved :D
Fed is over
Same I love Fed, sad to see him leave but so happy for Stef. He fought like a lion. Epic match.
I am a huge fan of Federer, and sad that he lost. But I'm also really happy for Tsitsipas....he has a very bright future ahead of him. Definitely could be some grand slams in his future.
I love this guy. ..sooo emotional. ..
Great fighter, mature. ..making his dreams
come true. .
A real exemple for this new gen.
This match was very eerily similar to when Federer beat Pete Sampras when he was a youngster! Tsitsipas will likely face Nadal in semi finals and I just can't wait to see what happens.
If it d nadal in the semis, he s gonna get a beating. But still he has bautista to deal with
Greek tennis on the rise again!
@@yangchen7521 again 😂🤣😂🤣 when was it ? Pete is american man get real
I don’t think he’ll beat Bautista if he’s fresh.

He is good at the net. Terrific victory. He seems to have the focus to become a great champion of tennis.

A new player with great PerSonaLity.. Mental focus to Seek&Destroy.. so innocently!
Despite never seeing a single shot of his.. that interview.. This man will go FAR
Same with me....agree 100 %
The future is in good hands, Stefanos, Coric, Tiafoe, Zverev all new kids on the block and still in the tournament
I don't really agree. I think that first of all Tiafoe doesn't belong in that category. The guy has sucked most of his career, he needs to do good for a longer period before he should be put in that same category.

Incredible match!!!!
Congrats, Stefanos!

Amazing victory. This is the start of the next gen
New generation coming up! Congrats Tsitsipas!
I love humble players. Much respect to you... you can be the next star player
I agree. ..plus so emotional interview. ..could hardly find his words.. .
This kid is seriously something special
What a sweet man.
Happiest and so are we for you ... #teamfederer ✅
a new legend born !! Stefanos Tsitsipas
Roger is a legend,,,Greek gods never die..
Congratulations it's your time in the sun .👏👏👏
Well done Tsitsipas,you were the better player today 👌
This kid is the future of tennis!
Hope this guy goes on to win it
Μπράβο αγόρι μου !! Εύχομαι απο καρδιάς να το σηκώσεις !!
Well deserved win !!!
Its gonna be djokovic v tsitsipas in final! Tsitsipas is true heir to roger's throne. He shares a lot of similarities with roger.
I don't think tsitsipas is going to beat rafa, and I'm not even sure if zverev can get to the semis
It's going to be Nadal vs Joker
Nadal has been playing incredibly so far and Djokovic hasn't really been tested. I hope for a new winner, perhaps a young guy but I think it will be Novak or Rafa still. I am rooting for this guy now or Tiafoe, Zverev or perhaps even Nishikori but I am convinced Nadal will reach the final and on the other side of the draw it's going to be either Zverev but most probably Djokovic.

Players who pull off a feat like this often play a bad match in the next round. But you never know.
His strike style is same like roger..and body structure and swift.. technic was also was much similar
all these Federer fans. stop giving the Greece dude shit. he even gave Federer credit and he did awesome. you deserve it man
Great win for Tsitsipas.Backing Nadal to win the title. He was just looking so sharp against Berdych. His serve has improved tremendously as well
Ts ts ts ts is amazing
Good!!
Это было круто! Заслуженно 💪🔥
I want him to do so well in the future gaaaahhhh 💖💖
Federer lost this match when he blew the second set. He played the better tennis throughout the entire set serving well and creating 8 break points then crumbled in the tiebreak.
but who won in the end?
Only himself to blame, shocking conversion rate
Can't totally agree... Nowadays whenever a GS match goes beyond 3 sets fed comes on the back foot physically and mentally
I was only talking about the second set. He was outplayed for the majority of the other sets including the 1st. If he had converted in the second up two sets to one different story of course.
@@user-ld1wx3gm6c έχεις δίκιο. Who won in the end? Αυτός που το άξιζε

Maybe he wants a Nike sponsorship
It’s enough he’s wearing it.

One handed backhand on the comeback trail!!!
Go all the way

Good for him! Takes such strong mentality to get a win off of Roger.

He has to go thru Tiafoe first....
