@@jonathanstirling7167 I didn't mean pave his way into tennis. But he inspired him and Nadal to be better players. His level of consistency pushed them both to greatness. He was the gold standard.
@@jonathanstirling7167 and while I agree with your point to an extent, Roger was winning slams before both of them in a dominant manner. Considering his consistency over those years, wouldn't they need to up their game first. And on top of that isn't not impressive of how a man that is literally 6 years older has been able to still win and say relevant to the point he at presents holds the 3rd most Slams? Anyways this is a matter of opinion so its actually not that deep. 🙃
Dude earned the respect . The way he won 2 back to back matches ('one single and one double ) is really incredible. Hard to believe he was not playing fir last 3 months
It amazes me that after all this time as a pro, Nadal still speaks as if he's just starting out. Djokovic, on the other hand, speaks really well and articulated.
Roger is not only a Tennis legend, he is a humble gentleman. He made me pick up my old racket and play after few years of break. I was also honored to meet him at the 2008 Beijing Olympics. I have a picture taken at the Nest Olympic Stadium which I will cherish for life. Seeing him retire and witnessing the love and respect his fellow tennis giants and the tennis community has accorded him made me immotional too. I wish him all the best!
BIG 4 watching them together all four is such a treat. Happy for all of them. Its going to hurt for sometime not seeing them on TV around anymore near future 😞😞😞😞
I've always been a die hard Roger fan and so I couldn't appreciate RAFA as well as I should have. But I must sincerely say, today what touched my heart most was seeing RAFA tearing up for Roger. This made me cry more than Roger's tears!! Respect RAFA, I LOVE YOU! FEDERER I will miss you, TENNIS WILL NOT BE THE SAME anymore! With TEARS..... Now I can't imagine RAFA or NOVAK retiring :(
We've been blessed over the last 20 years with this combination of tennis talent (men & women). I also love the fact that Novak/Roger & Rafa all appear to be decent human beings who realize they're lucky, strive to excel, try to give back and who are also not above expressing their emotions.
What RF did for tennis is comparable to what MJ did for the NBA. I know he is Roger’s idol, but Roger is every real tennis fan’s idol. He’s strong, competitive, gracious, and classy. Rafa and Nole are great champions too and hopefully the younger tennis players will learn from all three of them b4 they all retire. Vamos Roger and Rafa!!

@@nonody8125 Novak and Rafa won the most slams when competition was the toughest, 2008-2015. In that period we had big3 and also Murray, Wawrinka, Delpo, Tsonga, Ferrer... They would face guys like Nishikori, Monfils, Raonic, Isner, Berdych... quite early in the tournaments. Roger won most of his slams before 2008 when competition was not that tough. Rafa was just entering the stage and Roger was playing finals mostly against Safin, Roddick and Hewitt. Prime Murray is better than all of them.
Everyone knows these things have to happen, but it's still a loss for me. I've been a good fan of Roger all his career, it's been a fantastic ride just to watch him on the TV, and one could feel his presence on the court though the screen. The big three are incredible for ruling tennis for so damb long. The class of Roger Federer is nearly over, I'm as sad as when Michael Schumacher retired. Cheers Roger, what a ride dude.
I watched RF his whole career and this is a very sad moment for me. the way he played tennis was a thing of beauty. i cant tell you how much i goiing miss seeing fed. especially at wimbledon
In my opinion, Federer's greatness, regardless of how many majors he won, will not be eclipsed by any other current player. Having said that, the most important issue that has not been given enough attention is the detrimental attitude of the Australian and American governments regarding autonomy and sovereignty of a person. The damage that these governments have done to professional tennis, the legacy of the player that Djokovic is, has been tarnished by these governments and the history of tennis irrevocably altered by vision less politics. WHEN DID IT BECOME CRIMINAL OR PUNISHABLE TO RETAIN AUTONOMY AND SOVEREIGNTY OVER ONE'S OWN BODY? You, I and every person on the planet should be able to refuse whatever drug we choose WITHOUT PENALTY, as there is nothing criminal about retaining autonomy and sovereignty over one's own body. How dare this tyrrany be tolerated by us and how dare these governments be so evil as to say, " We will tell you what drugs you will take, when we tell you to drop your pants for a shot or we will punish you as you are acting criminally for refusing to take the drugs we want you to take. We will see to it you do not work." If this is not tyrrany, I do not know what is.
The Australian Government did not force Novak Djokovic to take the vaccine, only that he could not enter the country without a vaccination. Mr. Djokovic chose not to vaccinated and that was his perfect right not to do so. But the Australian Government also had the right to stop him entering, no one has the automatic right to enter Australia or any other country under all circumstances. The Australian Government, rightly or wrongly, felt that allowing unvaccinated people to enter the country posed a health risk and the duty of a government is to protect the health of its citizens.
mmm....these definitions, Djokovic won 7 Wimbledon titles, tied with Sampras and one behind Federer which holds 8. Next year let's see, grass currently rewards experience, but you never know. It would be fair to say this trio set new standards in this game, which personally I don't think will ever be attained, as the new generation is not willing to sacrifice so much to get there. And it takes a lot to sacrifice, talent is just one component.
Really, it is sad day as Djokovic said, but seems more than that when he will missed on courts for which his fans had still hope. He was unique, cool than ice, compassionate par excellence n a role Model. I have never played 🎾 but know it well, watched it which could happen only due to exceptional legends like this THE GREAT ROGER FEDERER. Would love to meet him if God wish. We will miss you on court. Wish you will make n shape one more like you.🙏🙏🎾
Someone will pass the greatness of Roger just like Bjorg. He set the standard so high imagine what that player will be like! It's been a gift to have had him. Good luck Roger Federer
@@z1az285 Yes it has yet Roger is still considered the greatest. Why? His style and elegance on the court. That is also the exciting aspect we'll all be waiting to see
Lmao, no.That's the stupidest statement no real sports observer would ever make. That's like declaring someone would surpass MJ the instant he retired. Even w the onset of Lebron & Kobe and their arguably better performances and records, that hasn't exactly happened has it? MJ is still goated, and w good reason. Roger is the GOAT of GOATS, an eternal one. Like other tennis players have said, the greatest in an era of greats. And even if someone wins 30 slams, would they have won it in an era similar to that of the Big 3? Serena won 23, but she had no equal competitors, unlike the Big 3. The accomplishing of records in an era dominated by 3 once in history talents is precisely why these 3 are taken to be the eternal greatest ever.
Say what you want, but teniis in the open era belonged to the odd-pairing of Federer and Nadal, in that order and not Murray nor Djokovic, others came close to defining it and their mark will only be shown in reflection in a statistical sense. Federer owned the highlight reels for his shot brilliance and Nadal left us in anticipation for his athletic determination.
Let's see - Federer won 20 GS titles, Nadal = 22 GS titles and Djokovic is at 23. Murray, well 3 lol. Why should Djokovic not be included in the conversation then, alongside Federer and Nadal?
If its great to see Nole appreciate the impact the greats have had on HIS career and development. It's a shame his fans, although late to the party, are not knowledgable enough to see this instead of the constant hate.
@@YellaP No it's not, it's obvious for all to see. Alot of his fans have no respect for Roger, little for Rafa and zero for the history of the sport. They are actually a great shame to our sport. Open your eyes to the stupid comments they make.. 🙄
If you look at the numbers, the numbers speak for themselves about the GOAT game and status. Where the fans rightfully get passionate is when someone tries to portrait Novak as a bad person and glorify the others, which is absurd and completely uncalled for not to mention a symptom of the 21st century delusion that celebrities are someone who they actually know well enough to make these judgement calls that go way past what they can actually see and know about a person who is not a close friend in the least bit. Your comment is the perfect example of the same type of behavior as you have 0 respect for Novak with your snarky comment about his attitude in this situation, if you only knew and had followed his statements that are not butchered out of context over the last 15 years you would have known that it has always been his attitude as well as his fans' attitude, but media would love for you to think otherwise. As far as his fans not having respect for the sport, what does that even mean? Calling someone's fans a "shame for the sport" is a dickhead move. Rise above it. It's not only a massive stupidity of a statement but it also doesn't set you apart but puts you right in the same basket by your own standars as the people you are trying to slander. You don't see yourself at all, do you?
@@YellaP You love the term "dickhead move" which if you dont mind me saying paints you in a bad light. I stand by EVERY word.

The only thing that lets Nole down and damages his image is some of his fans I was at the Wimbledon final 2021 and saw it first hand. If you are not a troll then you have nothing to worry about and shouldnt read so much into it but, you challenged for the truth, you got it and shock horror, you don't like it.

Roger is probably only one of the few sportsmen ever(MJ and mohd Ali being others) to be loved like that by millions all over the world,even by those who don’t know anything about that particular sport…end of one the greatest era in any sports..
He is a Legend. He will be missed, but he has a new chapter awaiting him. He has beautiful daughters and cute sons. He will have to stand guard when the boys come around, lol. I hope he will still be involved with tennis.
It was sad the big 3 were all out of sorts. Novak being banned from two slams and a bit rusty; Roger injured; Rafa semi injured. Andy ironically is in the best shape really.
@Anthony Its weird that Federer groups Murray with him, Nadal and Dojokovic. BUT you, that has never played him or will ever reach their level argue against them. Murray is not as good, but hes been way above the guys belov him again.
Imagine this scenario: You are walking downtown when suddenly, out of an alley, a man appears with a syringe and says, "Take this shot now or you will be punished." You respond by telling this man no in no uncertain terms. You tell him you are calling the police. He laughs while holding the syringe. You hear sirens and tell him, "They are coming for you," and he continues smiling, syringe in hand. The police arrive and you are arrested. You go to court and the judge finds you guilty of not taking the shot and punishes you for six months and does not allow you to work. The State is essentially saying it OWNS your body. Djokovic is living this reality. He should not be punished. He is not a ward of the state that can be forced to take meds. This vaccine purgatory is discriminatory and Orwellian. This must be stopped.
Here also you can see how nole established that how he was losing and then turned the table. That's the reason people say he is not a down to earth guy n kinda arrogant because somehow he always established that how he turned that table even at a retirement speech also. Wow
Federer can't survive vs NOVAK in his last 5 tennis active years.. 2015 - 2020 NOVAK wins 6 times federer only 1 ... Federer play best tennis vs NADAL in his last 4 tennis active years ... 2015 - 2019 federer wins 7 times and NADAL only 1 ...

@@Mlasse954 Novak , thus far, has a winning record against both Medvedev and Sinner. He has played Alcaraz once and lost in a close 3 setter in Madrid, as part of his " comeback " after the Australian debacle, so obviously was not as his best. The next encounters should tell us more...
Joker will try to retire with minimum 30 slams, however he won't be able to overhaul nadals 14 rg record. Infact that is one record which might last for 4 to 5 decades. Nadal might retire after Olympics, considering rg will host tennis event. Both benefitted from feds tennis exploits and became slam monsters. Tennis after them will be split style like in 90s with one or 2 players being dominant like sampras and aggasi but there won't be a big 3 in near future..
Djoker retiring with 30 Slams would mean that he needs to win 9 more. Do you even know how difficult it is to win a Slam past age 35.? Winning 2 more at maximum is realistic. Everything above 2 is wishful thinking…
You have a flat nose which makes you unable to see long ! there are many players who can easily demolish destroy stop Djocovid win GS he is not 25 anymore, opposite of Rafa only injuries bothers him ,because Rafa is a phenomenon left and his unique game style makes the difference!
It's gotten worse. It seems to happen with many people as they spend less time speaking it. I only speak English and I'm forgetting words as I get older ..
I often asked myself the same when Rafa speaks english. Roger and Nole are pretty fluent in english. Nole has some form of an accent, Roger has it also, but far less... Rafa is just funny as hell when he spoke english.
Lmao no. Alcaraz is overrated. His record this season proves it. Constant losses against peers at the uneven stages at multiple tournaments. Nothing of the sort ever happened w the B3.

@Anthony Its weird that Federer groups Murray with him, Nadal and Dojokovic. BUT you, that has never played him or will ever reach their level argue against them. Murray is not as good, but hes been way above the guys belov him again.
Murray was starting to dominate and then he got injured
@@zxcv4090 Very true, 2016 season...
Roger my hero ,I will miss you
Imagine this scenario: You are walking downtown when suddenly, out of an alley, a man appears with a syringe and says, "Take this shot now or you will be punished." You respond by telling this man no in no uncertain terms. You tell him you are calling the police. He laughs while holding the syringe. You hear sirens and tell him, "They are coming for you," and he continues smiling, syringe in hand. The police arrive and you are arrested. You go to court and the judge finds you guilty of not taking the shot and punishes you for six months and does not allow you to work. The State is essentially saying it OWNS your body. Djokovic is living this reality. He should not be punished. He is not a ward of the state that can be forced to take meds. This vaccine purgatory is discriminatory and Orwellian. This must be stopped.
Ok haters, Borg himself said it. Iceman says Big4; it’s Big4.
I don't want to feel old 😥. Roger stay Please.
Here also you can see how nole established that how he was losing and then turned the table. That's the reason people say he is not a down to earth guy n kinda arrogant because somehow he always established that how he turned that table even at a retirement speech also. Wow
I feel like laughing at Nadal for the way he talks ("it's, uh...it's, uh")
Still can’t believe the fact that I will never watch roger again
TOP 10 players ever (based on Open Era GS wins and finals): Djokovic, Nadal, Federer, Sampras, Borg, Lendl, Connors/Agassi, McEnroe/Wilander.
Federer can't survive vs NOVAK in his last 5 tennis active years.. 2015 - 2020 NOVAK wins 6 times federer only 1 ...
Federer play best tennis vs NADAL in his last 4 tennis active years ... 2015 - 2019 federer wins 7 times and NADAL only 1 ...
So let's see if Novak can survive vs Medvedev Alcaraz Sinner all these new generation good players!
@@Mlasse954 I love Federer but comparing federer and Novak with Novak and Alcaraz is really inconsistent. Federer is 6 years older than Novak while Novak is 17 I REPEAT 17 years older than Alcaraz. You should be comparing Novak to someone a little closer in age.
@@Mlasse954 Novak , thus far, has a winning record against both Medvedev and Sinner. He has played Alcaraz once and lost in a close 3 setter in Madrid, as part of his " comeback " after the Australian debacle, so obviously was not as his best. The next encounters should tell us more...
Wimbledon 2012 was the last time he beat djokovic in a slam. That's scary
It's unpopular to say it, but if we're honest, Novak is better than Federer in almost every way to compare them
Joker will try to retire with minimum 30 slams, however he won't be able to overhaul nadals 14 rg record. Infact that is one record which might last for 4 to 5 decades.
Nadal might retire after Olympics, considering rg will host tennis event.
Both benefitted from feds tennis exploits and became slam monsters.
Tennis after them will be split style like in 90s with one or 2 players being dominant like sampras and aggasi but there won't be a big 3 in near future..
Djoker retiring with 30 Slams would mean that he needs to win 9 more. Do you even know how difficult it is to win a Slam past age 35.? Winning 2 more at maximum is realistic. Everything above 2 is wishful thinking…
Wth dude?! Just two more?! I mean i understand that 30 might be a bit of a stretch, but two more?! Get the fuck out of here, you are clueless! Lmao
You have a flat nose which makes you unable to see long ! there are many players who can easily demolish destroy stop Djocovid win GS he is not 25 anymore, opposite of Rafa only injuries bothers him ,because Rafa is a phenomenon left and his unique game style makes the difference!
Djokovic can probably win 2 more realistically. And that is very had itself.
@@Mlasse954
Haha... guy won 4 out of last 8 slams..
Yeah many guys can beat joker
Like alpacino, Tom cruise, Kevin Costner.
Buhahaha..
Legend all time
Did anyone understand what Nadal was trying to say?
has his english gotten worse or is it me? 🤔
It's gotten worse. It seems to happen with many people as they spend less time speaking it. I only speak English and I'm forgetting words as I get older ..
Nadal accent is enjoyable
Andy Murray has nothing to do with the level of the others
Bro Rafas accent is so thick i literally would start laughing if he was the speaker at someones funeral
3:21 Just listen LOL
Too bad Wawrinka and Delpo weren't here!
Nadal 22
Djokovic 21
Federer 20
Börg 11
Murray 3
Five players 77 GS
cut the last of those and it's 4 players/74 GS...much more impressive, no?
Federer tiene puras ganas de llorar pobre :((((
"History repeats itself, just this time it's ass" - Rafa Nadal
Lol
Underrated comment
LOL! ! 😄😄
Lord Miyagi's intolerable!
Nadal should be a comedian
No one is bigger than the sport itself - except Roger (Net worth: $1.38 BILLION).
wtf did this nadal guy say, can someone translate?
Wait for Eliot Looney masterpiece :)
I know one who can translate... GOLDEN WOLF 😂😂😂
Used close captions. So simple even a caveman could do it...😆
Lol
I often asked myself the same when Rafa speaks english. Roger and Nole are pretty fluent in english. Nole has some form of an accent, Roger has it also, but far less...
Rafa is just funny as hell when he spoke english.
big-4. i love these 4 Player so much than i wanna even make Tatoo Big-4 ))
Roger will come back ahahah ah what a comedy
Djokovic is the goat
Novax djocovid is a goose
Novak is number one 👍
♥
Nadal has full hair!
Nadal is looking jealously at Novak and Roger's scalps LOL
In 20 years we will be having a similar beautiful moment for Carlos Alcaraz.
A bit early to say this…
Lmao no. Alcaraz is overrated. His record this season proves it. Constant losses against peers at the uneven stages at multiple tournaments. Nothing of the sort ever happened w the B3.
Easy now. These dudes are on another level.
or maybe someone else.....far too difficult to know at this point
Support Iran's revolution for women, life and freedom. The tyrant regime is killing us in the streets. Be the voice of Iranian protest. Be the voice of freedom. We need to be heard . WE WANT TO BE FREE. #mahsaamini
