When Tsitsipas smiles after Roger hits a backhand winner down the line... it's sweetness. He must've dreamt of meeting Federer as a boy... and here he is trading blows with his idol in a slam.
I remember before this match I had a really strong feeling Tsitsipas would win. Federer had lost at the us open surprisingly, and Tsitsipas really looked like he felt it was his time to win.
Pretty crazy that it still takes nearly 4 hours for an upcoming next gen player, playing probably the best match of his career (up to this point) to put away 37 year old Federer who was not at his best, Tsitsipas has of course proven he is a very good player since this match but it really makes you think that a 25 year old prime Federer pretty much mops the floor with almost anyone not named Nadal
Tsitsipas was 20 at this point, which is still a very immature age in tennis. Federer hadn't won any grand slam at the age of 20, QF being the farthest he had gone.
@@MinorVoices he was literally a set away from winning a slam against the GOAT. Obviously Tsitsipas isn’t Federer but he’s a very talented player who’ll win several slams
@@MinorVoices see, I am not a fan of Tsitsipas at all. My point is the gross assumption involved about a 25-yo Federer supposedly mopping the floor with everyone other than Nadal, based on these out of context matches, is just wrong, and extremely disrespectful.

@@bilindameen6302 clearly Nadal screams like that when he hits the ball, goes to show how much energy and intensity he puts into his shots; opposite to Federer, who makes every shot look effortless
@@unofflesnar9819 well i think he’s the most mentally prepared out of the young guys! He didn’t chocked mentally in the FO final...he was just outplayed by a more experienced guy! For a first final he did very well.He’s still showing his mental strength like in AO open when he defeated Rafa...he’ll be the first out of the next gen to win a Slam...just wait
Tsitsipas played amazingly with those service defenses and overall so this statement is not to discredit his efforts. Those line calls did Roger dirty psychologically, in both the first and last set.
unfortunate for Federer that he somehow found ways to waste 4 set points on the second set, and that was the turning point for the Gen next to have confidence that he could save several break points against great players on great tournaments !
Hey you know what? Federal didn’t make it easy for the young man even when he’s almost 40 and yet still play like a young man. Over all they made this game super exciting! I applaud both of them for that! Very fun to watch.
How easily the best FH of all time turns into the worst when its the matter of big points.. He had so many chances match should have been over in 3 sets IMO
It's weird isn't it? Ivan Lendl, who had the best forehand of the 80s, was to say years later that he hated people hitting to his forehand on big points.
Good for Tsitsitpas! I’m a Federer fan because of the way he plays the court and his players. Other players should feel a sense of accomplishment for sure, but Federer still will be the better player and not sure who is going to surpass that. I guess everyone has their style too so my comment is quite subjective!

4 set points for a 2-0 set lead, including a couple which he got back into a neutral rally - loses all of them and loses the match in 4 sets. Or third set unforced shank forehands at break point up.

@@samy29987 glad i made you laugh 🤣😋 yes he has many titles, somewhat padded by 25 atp 250 titles. So many big moments where he had match points, his career could be untouchable had things gone his way more. But thats tennis and its scoring system
@@frozenragu Are you kidding me? His career is already untouchable to 99.5% of all tennis players that have ever played the game in history. Also, since when does winning tournaments become padding?

@@frozenragu Two players that are near Federer in numbers out of how many that have ever played the game in total? 100k? 500k? Yeah, keep saying that Federer has mental muggery. For all the tennis that is part of your life, I sure do question your reasoning and logic. Also yes, Wimby 19 should have been Federer's but he still proved at 38 he could compete at the highest level.
Very similar match to the way Federer lost to Millman at the 2018 US Open. Up a set, winning in the second, then suddenly just seeming to lose some energy.
It’s amazing someone as old as Federer can compete pretty much head to head with the best today has to offer, when he is playing poorly. Feds prime would have gone 6-1,6-2, 6-0 against such an opponent. A testament to how good he used to be but also how good his competition was back then and the lack of raw talent populating the youthful at the top currently. Video game generation sucked the talent out of the pool allowing the kings of yesteryear a stay of execution.
He wouldn’t hanve gone 6:1 6:2 6:0 against Tsitsipas never in his career,the 2019 Federer was playing at top level,played Wimbledone final.Stefanos also beat him in 2019 ATP Finals.
Federer is emotionless while the opposition is emotionally-fluctuating. The difference between a champion and a high level player is the mental stability to keep calm in all situations.
Federer hit an approach shot that was called long by the line judge. The chair umpire corrected the call to be in and hence no challenge was needed. However, because of the incorrect call, the point could only be replayed, despite Federer seemingly having had advantage in the rally.
After the Glorious Golden age of tennis with Roger Rafa and Novak Murray Wawrinka, back to the Iron age with Medvedev Tsisipas Rublev Sinner and Shapovalov!

Roger clearly lost this match to himself. He is so good that no matter how the other guy is playing, what determines the result of the match is Roger’s level of play at that day. Getting into his head (and hurt his confidence) is the way to beat him. Rafa and Novak have perfected that… Tsitsipas just got lucky this time.
Is it just me who feels like the AO classics music is epic? When the winning point comes and the music kicks in, it's always super emotional
no, it sounds depressing and out of style.
Agreed
Yeah I have the same feeling. Remember the scene with Djokovic falls on the ground after wins championship over Nadal
It’s perfect, it brings back memories but there is also a hint of sadness that someone you watched is no longer playing anymore.
When Tsitsipas smiles after Roger hits a backhand winner down the line... it's sweetness. He must've dreamt of meeting Federer as a boy... and here he is trading blows with his idol in a slam.
The beauty of this match are:
1) RF play
2)Two Single handed backhand.
