He does not ignore but he feeds on it and it gives him strength. The Balkan mentality (and especially the Serbian mentality) finds spite to be one of the greatest motivators.
@@theDrzhivargo The Torquoise guy made virtually the exact comment, but he got 133 thumbs up.....I bet most of these shitholes manufacture 'thumbs up' by themselves.
Djokovic is simply the greatest hard-court player ever. A joy to watch how he counteracts Fed's attacking game with his own defensive/offensive game. Brilliant entertainment.
Djokovic was shell shocked with Federers level in 1st set. Had federer won that set it could have been a different match. Perfect attacking tennis always triumphs best of defense
@@blistering2900 Federer plays high risk/high reward tennis. Nearly impossible to maintain a high level over 5 sets. Hence, Joker always beats him at the majors.
@@schwozluv8364 Pls tell me why you have the mental ability of an ant in calling Fed a robot when Djokovic is the robot. Also what is interesting about watching Djokovic be absolutely boring while playing.
5-2 30-0 first set.. dude has an extreme mental block vs djokovic. He needs to see some guru guy to improve his confidence or something. If it was anyone other than djokovic he would win. And its not necessarily because Djokovic is playing god like hes just not making unforced errors and roger just chokes.
It’s just fascinating to see how many matchs Federer has Djokovic totally under control and of a sudden Djokovic breaks his mental side completely. The only time I do remember the opposite was when Federer turned a 2-5 in Wimbledon 2014 to win the set, but still lost in the 5th.
@@CityXplora you dont need to be so full of yourself to call people “ignorant “, specially when you are wrong. Yes, age plays a big role there against Roger, but the lack of resilience is clear. It didnt happen after 2011, you could see it many times against Nadal many years before. Federer had enough level to win either 06/07 FO finals, which he didnt because he couldnt sustain mentally the game. What about missing 2 MP against Djokovic 3 times in grand slams? Losing the first set of FO final 2011 against Nadal with a 5/2 advantage? Man i followed their entire careers closely, and thats pretty clear.
I tried tenis once and I was athletic and in great shape played basketball for a district team ; but I couldnt hit the ball inside the squares or serve properly so I realized the sport was not for me 😂 also that little ball moved fast, maybe I needed coaching
Never seen a player who can execute every shot brilliantly like federer does ever. Serve, Forehand, Backhand, slice, volley, overall net reactions, dropshots etc. He seems to do it with such ease, like its natural. Absolute magician.
Out of the top3 , RF had the nicest tennis game in his career, but this clip is just a microcosm of why he cannot be considered the greatest. He beat lots of guys in the 00's just by sheer tennis skills/ability but when he was faced with opponents with mental fortitude like Novak he wasn't able to overcome. Yes he won matches against him but I get the feeling he was just content to let his silky skills defeat opponents which at the very top might not always work.
@@draoicht22 2011 US Open semi, 2019 Wimbledon Final - Novak wrecked part of Roger's psyche.. so he had no true mental stamina/confidence to beat Novak anymore. It was only a matter of how bad he was going to lose.
Watching these highlights you'd think Fed won....but he didn't. Thanks for the unbiased highlights AO.....i remember djokovic hitting more winners that you showed here. Idemoooo Nole!!!
They do not seem biased to me. Federer had 46 winners in this match and Djokovic had 31. I think this match more than any other, explains why Federer's tennis style is preferred by so many people as opposed to Djokovic's. The fact that Federer had 15 more winners in this match than Djokovic, when the serb was the one who won the match in straight sets, that speaks volumes about a lot of things. Tennis is not just about numbers, stats and records.
@@andreim.5324 exactly, these fans are so blind to how boring and defensive Djokovic's style of play is. He simply capitalizes on slow courts to just push the ball back in play and cash in on the opponents unforced errors. This approach will obviously kill Djokovic in fast courts, and is proven by how badly he was dominated by Roger in the fast court era with ACTUAL TENNIS. Looking at the rally pace, I sometimes wonder whether they're playing with a tennis ball or a rock lol
Amrithya Balasubramanian what are you talking about? Djokovic has beaten Federer on indoor hard many times and beaten him at Cincinnati. It favors Federer but Novak can also play in quick conditions. ALSO winners doesn’t tell the whole tale, Fed May have more winners but don’t mistake Novak for some pusher. He hugs the baseline, dictates play and hits MANY shots that fed may get a racket on but can’t do anything with. If fed wants to throw in unforced errors as well all the more good.
Andrei M. Actually at the end of the day that is what tennis is about lol, being overly aggressive and making unforced errors along with winners doesn’t go into the GOAT conversation or matter at all. It’s about WINNING? Lol
@@jeremypendergast7029 it kinda does. Even in Wimbledon Djokovic got destroyed with 90 something winners for Federer against only like 50 for Djokovic. And Djokovic was playing a 38 year old dinosaur. Winning is not everything. Wimbledon 2019 was a perfect example of how the better player can sometimes still lose. Federer basically beat himself in that match
At this point, the rivalry between the fans is ten times fiercer than the actual players' rivalry. It's pitiful. Maybe stop calling each other 'djokobitch' and 'fedtard' and try to appreciate the fact that these guys are still even playing at their ages. Spend more time enjoying the damn sport than ruining it with stupid debates. Just watch the match for the sake of watching the match, not bragging about who wins. It's just immature as hell and tennis doesn't deserve to be turned into a political spectrum full of commenting gangs going around spreading insults.
J024 doesn’t give people an excuse to insult fans. The point of highlights is to provide the most crucial points and the best points. Federer, by nature, hits more flashy winners than Djokovic. They’re trying to get people to watch the videos, not trying to provide a spread of points won corresponding to the total points won. Case in point: first set, Federer goes up 5-2 with several beautiful winners, taking a 16-2 lead in winners over Djokovic. Djokovic hits back by outlasting Fed in rallies and playing a beautiful tiebreak. Clearly Djokovic’s style won out, and often wins out, but it’s not the most watchable *in the minds of those who made this video*. At least that’s my guess.
This was a huge win for Djokovic, because he made a wonderful comeback in the the first set! His mental toughness and accurate shot making are incomparable!!!
Only comparable to Federer "bad face", the one you can see only againts Novak :) The funny thing is that at 4-1 0-40 his face ssems much more relax, until he loses the point...and regain his bad face, you musst have seen that.
You know Fed was injured this match? If he wasn't it would have been a different story, even considering that Thiem almost beat Nole and took him to 5 the next match
Ismet iCi The comment is correct actually since he didn’t play his best against Fed but still beat him in the Wimbledon final. Also, what has Thiem taking him 5 sets got to do with this?
@@IsmetČehić2506 what is the point you're trying to make here? Hypothetical situations that didn't happen? So what if Roger was injured? I wasn't claiming he played his best... You can't deny that this is something Novak is good at. He was injured many times and won, he didn't play his best but still found the way to win. This doesn't take away from the fact that Roger is an amazing player.

the point of highlights is to show the most interesting points. it doesn't matter who won, if federer won most of the interesting points, they will show federer winning more.
I agree with you. What a biased highlights. Novak WON this match in THREE STRAIGHT SETS, but I just watched a compilation of Federer points for eighteen minutes. What a shame!
Even when he loses, Fed's backhand looks so good these days. Not just beautiful, but really, really solid and steady. Great job to Ljubicic for turning that shot around.
@@trumpameri1638 Lol. He is nemesis for injured Fed all right. Otherwise he is just good at tiebreaks and cant win a set with a break against a guy who is 38 years old.
and still its just whit 6 year more bigger then djokovic :) imaginate if wase djokovic whit 6 year bigger then federer then federer i guess its gonne win all matches in stricht sets
Novak's strategy against Federer- 1. Rally ball to Feds backhand 2. Play the ball low and deep 3. Slow down the pace of the rallies. Feds backhand becomes weaker the more times he hits the ball with it. Add to the fact that the ball he receives are mostly deep and low which requires more accuracy and the right amount of power to return it properly. Novak also dictates the rallies by preventing Fed to use his favourite combo.
@@БојанБјелић It’s because Roger is extremely talented. He can got every shot in his capability. That’s why, most of the times he can win over players other than top ones even when he is way below his best. One time he beat Zverev mostly just slicing low and drop shots. Zverer was in form at the time.
Nole is doing to Federer exactly the same what Rafa has been doing to Federer on clay since they first met. No matter what the score was, Rafa always came out victorious. Now (well, its been some years now) it is Nole. Wimbledon 2019 is another example. Hajde Nole👍👍👍
Federer is doing all the running - back and forth - side to side. In order to produce those shots he needs to use his legs a lot - people are fools if they think that Federer's style of play is not exhausting - it is because. His fast and perfect shots are looking easy but they are produced with a lot of effort and a lot of knee bending - hence injuries in these areas. These highlights show actually how Djokovic is just standing on the baseline and directing the ball all over the court - this is his talent - a lot diversity at depth, angles and all kinds of placement of the ball. He is making his opponents to run across the whole court making offensive play with controlled aggression. This is 90% of this matches. But they always show his defensive skills and shots because they are very acrobatic and winners from sliding positions - his unmatched acrobatic abilities to hit balls while jumping for a slide, while on the move to the opposite side, etc. and always with a balance and at the centre of the racket - this sets him apart from all the players I have watched till now.
Respect to Roger for not retiring mid match due to his injury after 2 five setters. He is after all displays good ethic throughout his professional career 1511 matches completed and 0 retirement. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Novak got lucky Federer chocked! By no means did Novak do anything exceptional on the match points! It was Federer's nerves and panic that got the better of him, and felt the need to rush into the net, on a horrible approach shot, in which even a good challenger or circuit player, would have been able to hit a winner from there!
@@derekmcgregor7459 Only here Roger was injured, so this was not a legitimate choke, when they both meet, if they both meet, in next Grand Slam, both at 100% fitness, then we'll have to see, if Roger chokes or not, when in a winning position.
@@apathak34novak only started declining in this year, and thats barely and only in his physicals. His shot placements and depths are still there, hes still outlasting kids in gs.
@@apathak34 he’s more aggressive in his earlier years, yes, he has better stamina and power in 2011. But 2015 onwards his tactics, placement, consistency, his serve, his net game got better. He doesnt need that much power anymore. After the 2017 elbow surgery he lost power, but everything still there, including the trademark return r still there.
As Steve Flink said if he didn't think he had a chance he should have defaulted. He also said Federer played well and Djokovic was kind to acknowledge what appeared to be a phantom injury. However, Djokovic gets called out for all sorts of gamesmanship yet Federer had a groin, back, groin, back, groin injury that didn't show up on a scan and rather than rest it he went to South Africa to play and beat Nadal. Nonsense. Djokovic realized about halfway through the first set that there was no injury and he had to focus. The end.
Lmao he was clearly injured, he could barely move. Novak acknowledged it because it was obvious. And throughout their career, Novak has always retired midway blaming injuries, so the whole "shouldn't have played if you were injured" is a retarded hypocritical logic
@@s.l5787 I didnt see in a first set any Federer injurie. He played focused and agressive. Djokovic was polite, ofc he wouldnt say Federer is faking. Federer was exhausted and tired but injuried no.
He was clearly injured and revived a medical timeout. He said it was brutal playing through it. He didn’t default bc he doesn’t do that and fans payed lots to see them. Class act. Also, did you watch the match with Nadal? It was at 50% lmao, they were having fun.
I think this scoreboard is counting wrongly. In this highlight I counted that Federer had 36 points and Djokovic had 28 so it must have been that Federer won this match. Propaganda can change your perspective of seeing things. Highlight should be short represent of the event. Shame on you journalist
Are you seriously trying to say that Federer won this match?? Millions of people have seen this match, but somehow you think you caught them cheating Federer? Lmao, Federer fans will literally make any excuse when he loses. This is a highlight reel you idiot, there’s a chance that they put in more of Federer’s shots.
@@endistherenown776 He's saying that they put more of Federer's winners in the highlight video than Djokovic so it seems like Federer won even though he didn't
In this case people are not dumb, highlights are exactly like the name implies, the best moments from the match. Cry all you want but Fed simply plays more beautifully and in turn makes better points, thats why he will always shows up a lot in the HIGHlights even when he loses.
This is why FEDAL fans hate DJOKOVIC so much.. the numbers don't lie, NOVAK had the head to head records in terms of matches against these two, ESPECIALLY in terms of GRAND SLAM semis/finals.. everyone keep saying how Grand Slams are the determining factor for being the GOAT. Well, since 2011 until today (that's already 10 years btw), NOVAK had the RECORD against these two! The ONLY reason why FEDERER had the most slams today is because he earned MAJORITY of those during 2004-2007, the time when DJOKOVIC who just turned pro and was just getting a hang of it, the professional tennis life, and Nadal getting the RG every year (only winning RG). 2004-2010 GS records: Federer - 16 slams (majority of it came from 2004-2007) Nadal - 9 slams Djokovic - 1 slam 2011 - 2020 GS records: Djokovic - 16 Slams Nadal - 10 slams Federer - 4 slams Djokovic is just a year younger than Nadal and he is very close to matching his record considering that NADAL had turned pro much earlier than NOLE, PEAKED along with NOLE pretty much and won GS at such early age which made NOLE's wins even more impressive.. Roger won 16 of his slams when he was basically ALONE dominating the rest of the slams when Nadal was just solely winning clay court titles and major and Novak was just an upcoming player at age 18-20.. Novak had to play against NADAL, MURRAY, Del Potro and Wawrinka and Federer during his dominating years and he still managed to earn 16 slams.. GS records: 1. Federer - 20 GS wins; 11 finals 2. Nadal - 19 GS wins; 8 finals 3. Djokovic - 17 GS wins; 9 finals now who's the GOAT?
yeah, after Fed's prime years are over ? What was the H2H by 2011/12. Djoko is sweeping up with no real competition ! this draw in AO was a joke for him too.
What about Agassi? Novak is doing to Fed what Fed did to Agassi. No one talks about that. Agassi was still in his early 30s and was reaching second week of grandslams on a consistent basis.
@@kushanshah8040 federer lost his no 1 spot to Nadal when he was 27 and Novak started to dominate him when he was 29. Novak at 32 plays way better than Federer did at that age.
@Amanda Cerny Well, my friend, I'd put my two hands together if you were a man with the same ability as Djokovic. I'll tell you a secret, though it doesn't require a big iq. They love Federer because tennis is a sport for the rich and snob ... Therefore, the rich snob audience is in the majority ...
@@mrglance1 I know it's because of it. I think the crowd tried to achieve that in every federal and djoko match. Because they fear that they will defeat their pet ...
@Amanda Cerny I like how you all just say "he is not a likeable person" 1) Who are you to say that he is not likeable? Are you guys in a Federer cult or something? Not everyone think the same as you or handful of tennis fans that get the chance to be in audiences and openly cheer AGAINST Novak. 2) Let me tell you why he is not likeable: he keeps fucking Fedal all day long, and you can't accept that fact.
Look at the score @ 3:54 …. 1-4 0-40 against Federer, from the jaws of defeat Nole has it in him to make an unreal comeback.. Nerves of steel, guts, and greatness 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Great job AO on these highlights, first time watched some replay of each and every point played by the player who lost the match. How did you feel that burn? Straight sets Nadal last year, and Federer this year. You better warm up to Djokovic, he is the only endorser you’ve got.
@@Aman-nk5uq Nope pretty much alive, commenting here as proof. Did you btw mean that I would have died of shock after seeing Rafa beat Novak in straight sets? To politely respond, no I was not shocked. I was content in knowing that Novak made it to the finals. Beating Rafa is next to impossible on Clay, and the same goes for beating Novak at AO. I was wondering if you felt like dying during AO 2019 final, straight sets right? You really need to get some perspective. If you want to get salty, then go post a comment on a Pro Roger video. Don't come here, just because you don't have anything to do in your life.
Typical example of biased media against Novak and pro Federer. Most of the highlights are Federer’s winning shots, while Novak beat him in 3 sets! Pathetic western media!
Even if Djoković wins , No one can be ever compared to Federer as a man of complete WISDOM and the best player we all have ever seen Literally no one can be like Federer!!
lol how could you not one guy is an asshole on court with his faces and shit its just unlikable nothing complex. one guy gloats like a wacko and one guy is just happy like a normal person; is one better than the other? nah they both sick af djoko better now but like lets be honest his yelling and wack shit is sooo cringe

@@seankeegan4468 You can't be normal when everybody in the crowd is sabotaging you in a way. Would you be calm if people cheered on your double faults, and pretending to cough when you prepare to serve? No! Novak isn't doing 10% of what he should do in those situations. He is not pointing anything against Federer when cheering, he is pointing to the crowd.
Its comical how so many people credit all federer’s defeats to Novak to a “mental block” not because Novak is just better than him. Stop the BS! Its not a mental block. By saying its a mental block you guys diminish Novak quality. He is just a superior player, that’s it.
Igor Lucena as of now, he is definitely the better player. However, I do think a mental block exists even if it wasn’t highlighted here. It showed at the Wimbledon final last year when he had 40-15 and approached the net behind a poor forehand
And all other Novak’s 17 slams and possible slam record on the horizon is all a matter of “mental block” with the other players with him. Right. 👏. Genius.
Igor Lucena Lol, NEVER said that😂 I just think Roger could beat any player he faces, but Nole’s mentality is way better than Roger’s. Do you think that Nole was deserving to win last Wimbledon after losing his serve and being 40-15 down? Spoiler: NO, he wasn’t deserving to win. Roger missed the next points and lost because in crucial moments Nole takes better decisions while Roger (especially against him) is less lucid. Simple as that. (Sorry if you notice some errors but I’m not English, I try my best to explain myself.)
I completely agree with you. What a biased highlights, made by a Federer fan. It seems Djokovic fights against the opponent, against the crowd, and against the biased media!
@@enginduzu don't be dense. Djokovic plays a safer, more consistent game that relies on outlasting the opponent and letting him make an error. Federer is a play maker. It's very clear that Djokovic's method is better for winning, but Federer makes more highlight-worthy plays. No bias here.
@@jordyjordyjordyjordyjordy Mr 40-15 is putting a show to provoke the fans to go crazy against Djokovic and not playing fair like a champion. I think it's one of his tactics to distract Djokovic, but Djokovic has done his homework a long time ago, so he's ready to go.
After the last point, Djokovic showed his respect for Roger, and that he learned a lot from him, especially the finger stroke performed by Roger after 2011 RG SF.
Theres no fortune there. Federer missed in crucial moments and collapsed in the remaining of that set. Got into the tiebreaks but thats not his territory agaisnt Nole. Nothing new tbh
Great match on Djokovic's end. Federer was visibly worn from his 2 five-setters against Sandgren and Millman that really went the distance...Either way, we are fortunate to still see Federer and Djokovic dominate tennis as they have done over the past 2 decades (with Nadal) - truly incredible!
Get your head out of the gutter. Their head-to-head is still 23 to 27 and Novak is six years younger. It makes perfect sense that he's slightly ahead because he's slightly younger. Not to mention that Novak's 4-match lead happened during the 2016 season when Roger practically broke his back from scoliosis. And Federer had to adapt to all of the courts changing in the late 2000s. They all got way slower which is a huge advantage for Novak's groundstroke-based game. The rivalry is very close but Novak clearly has unfair advantages that have to be considered.
@@theaviator1152 Perhaps the change of court surface in 2008 AO affected Federer's record @Melbourne . Since the change from Rebound Ace to Plexicushion happened , Djokovic has established his authority in Melbourne . Federer put @ disadvantage by the surface change.
razneK No, I’m saying it’s nobody’s fault, and Novak fans need to stop acting like it’s Roger’s fault with ‘weak era’ nonsense and Slam counts. Because when Roger was 32, he was still winning Slams continuously. He had accomplished almost everything Novak has today (except for winning all Masters 1000s but that’s because Rafa, Novak, Murray, Ferrer, Verdasco, Davydenko, Berdych were all in their freaking mid-twenties so don’t bother me about that!) And on that note, it’s not like anybody in their mid-twenties is giving Novak trouble today. Because they’re all Next Gen garbage! Thiem is like the only one who puts up any sort of fight! Think about it: up until around 2017, everybody in the top ten was over 27 or 28 years old. Now, they’re all under 25 (which is what we saw and were amazed by way back fifteen years ago when Roger was rising up and destroying poor Agassi lol) but instead of being great rookies like Roddick, Hewitt, heck even Rafa were, they’re trash! I mean, you had Dimitrov being number 3 for months! (Flashback to racket-smashing Baby Fed days) And the only reason Zverev was number four for so long was because of that super sketchy, really close, total BS win against Roger (remember, in the middle of a crucial point in the final tiebreak he suddenly started whining about a ballboy and stopped play). He literally did nothing else. He had NO TITLES and he’s number 4 for TWO YEARS! That’s how crap they are! This compares to how Roger had to overtake old GOATs Sampras and Agassi while fighting off Roddick by winning dozens of titles in a row, then Rafa had to beast his way through multiple clay seasons and finally win Wimbledon, then Novak had to emerge on hard courts and do marathon after marathon against Roger in New York, meanwhile they all have Murray, Safin, Ancic, Ferrero, Nalbandian, Gasquet, Haas, Berdych ALL lingering in the background! Plus the big guys like Isner, Querrey, Karlovic, and way more! Sorry not sorry, but the top 100 is GARBAGE compared to ten years ago! You have to face it guys: tennis was the best ever from 2003 to 2015. There was no weak era for Roger: *it was a strong era for all of tennis*. And Novak is taking advantage of that now. I’m not saying he should be discredited, I’m just noting that he was born at literally the most convenient time imaginable to win. Lol
Aaron Maher I mean, I imagine that if he didn’t stall out with the racket switch, he could have peaked at 34. In fact, I would say 2015 was his best year since 2009.
40 year old Roger is 3rd in the World and still gives a hell of a fight to a god tier Novak. Novak's mind is just to strong and can comeback from anything. Nowadays no one can break Djokovic even twice a match but grandpa Roger did it more times in a set
Biased video that mainly shows federer’s points won and skips Djokovic you would have thought Federer had won and he lost in straight sets! I was there live
I understand. But Federer played like he had nothing to lose in the first set. Was going good till around 5-4. After that, that style of play effected him and his level dropped. Djokovic too got effected by Federer's drop and he too dropped his level. That's why the second and third set were kinda boring. Both players not too great, waiting for the other to make an error. In the first set Federer hit approx 25 winners to Djokovic's 5. That's why it seems like the highlights is Federer biased.
The first set was extremely close with multiple breaks exchanged. The second set was close too but Federer got broken serving at 5-4 that too after it went to duece The third set it clearly seemed that his injury started to impact his game. It would be an enormous task to come back from 2 sets to djokovic But the level of play in 2019 and 2020 AO by a 38yo federer (saving 7 match points in the previous game) against djokovic was amazing. Thd only time djokovic ever dominated Federer was at 2016 AO first 2 sets
Are you not get bored making this kind of excuses ?? Djokovic 37 year old just beat the biggest talent the world has seen on clay for gold medal, 1.5 months after knee surgery. Just stop it, Federer is third best player ever and thats magnificient result.
Federer has to be the best player when it comes to playing through injury. I agree that the main reason is because of his style of play - dominating serve + attacking net play helping him to finish off points quickly. No one can do it better than him! To show up in matches sooo many times injured and still putting a gritty display is not easy. His determination and dedication is there to see. Playing against Djokovic naturally gave him that much more push to play at his best to try and beat him, but after Djokovic fought back from 1-4 0-40 in the first set, the fate of the match was sealed. Nevertheless as Djokovic said in post match interviews in SW 19 and after this one, Federer at 38 respect to Federer inspire everyone watching to play the game at the very top level despite all odds!
Federer absolutely exhausted here after his very tough matches in previous rounds. He only really got the lead in the first set because Djokovic seemed to have really bad nerves and played very tight at times. Djokovic switched his game on exactly when he needed it. Once Djokovic got his game going, Federer didn't have the energy left to keep up.
2:30 just going back and watching big 3 matches cuz I miss them. amazing how much djokovic has improved even recently (AO 2023 is happening right now). nowadays, djokovic instantly comes to net once he sees fed in trouble and finishes at net cleanly. even as recently as 2020, djokovic still wasn't as keen to move forward.
In slams Federer is 4-10 vs Nadal and 6-11 vs Djokovic, his 2 biggest rivals. 😬 But yeah he did very well against Roddick, Hewitt and whoever... so impressive.👏😏
@Kevin Weng You lot are so obsessed with your Weak Era theory that you say the stupidest things without realising. Additionally, your comment is totally unrelated to mine, but you lot basically have Weak Era Tourette's at this point.
@Kevin Weng Yes, because getting older in competitive sports is merely a theory, obviously. You are welcome to think I'm audacious; your comment is still stupid and, more importantly, irrelevant.
@Kevin Weng Well, you see, I'm neither a teenager nor a Serb living vicariously through a tennis player I support, so I really don't see it necessary to "save" anyone from anything.

But I know y'all only started watching tennis ten years ago, so...
@Kevin Weng This is getting really boring and you can't possibly be this thick. You know full well that I am not sincerely making that statement, so why the disingenous argument? Simply to argue? As for your desperation for Federer fans to "just accept" whatever it is you feel needs just accepting, it is curious that you, along with many other fans, don't feel confident that the stats speak for themselves.
He is no king. He is a champion with 8 titles alone in Melbourne, a great player whom I look up to. He is no king as Melbourne does not regard him as the king here. The people choose their king, not the other way around. ATP announcers call him the king of Melbourne but I say again, we don’t see him as our king, and he never will be. His attitude on and off the court is shit. He is a fake person with zero class. He may sound charitable but ultimately it is to make himself look good. He should not be the king anywhere, even with 100 grand slams.

Out of the top3 , RF had the nicest tennis game in his career, but this clip is just a microcosm of why he cannot be considered the greatest. He beat lots of guys in the 00's just by sheer tennis skills/ability but when he was faced with opponents with mental fortitude like Novak he wasn't able to overcome. Yes he won matches against him but I get the feeling he was just content to let his silky skills defeat opponents which at the very top might not always work.

Watching these highlights you'd think Fed won....but he didn't. Thanks for the unbiased highlights AO.....i remember djokovic hitting more winners that you showed here.
Idemoooo Nole!!!
They do not seem biased to me. Federer had 46 winners in this match and Djokovic had 31. I think this match more than any other, explains why Federer's tennis style is preferred by so many people as opposed to Djokovic's. The fact that Federer had 15 more winners in this match than Djokovic, when the serb was the one who won the match in straight sets, that speaks volumes about a lot of things. Tennis is not just about numbers, stats and records.
@@andreim.5324 exactly, these fans are so blind to how boring and defensive Djokovic's style of play is. He simply capitalizes on slow courts to just push the ball back in play and cash in on the opponents unforced errors. This approach will obviously kill Djokovic in fast courts, and is proven by how badly he was dominated by Roger in the fast court era with ACTUAL TENNIS. Looking at the rally pace, I sometimes wonder whether they're playing with a tennis ball or a rock lol
Amrithya Balasubramanian what are you talking about? Djokovic has beaten Federer on indoor hard many times and beaten him at Cincinnati. It favors Federer but Novak can also play in quick conditions. ALSO winners doesn’t tell the whole tale, Fed May have more winners but don’t mistake Novak for some pusher. He hugs the baseline, dictates play and hits MANY shots that fed may get a racket on but can’t do anything with. If fed wants to throw in unforced errors as well all the more good.
Andrei M. Actually at the end of the day that is what tennis is about lol, being overly aggressive and making unforced errors along with winners doesn’t go into the GOAT conversation or matter at all. It’s about WINNING? Lol
@@jeremypendergast7029 it kinda does. Even in Wimbledon Djokovic got destroyed with 90 something winners for Federer against only like 50 for Djokovic. And Djokovic was playing a 38 year old dinosaur.
Winning is not everything. Wimbledon 2019 was a perfect example of how the better player can sometimes still lose. Federer basically beat himself in that match
At this point, the rivalry between the fans is ten times fiercer than the actual players' rivalry. It's pitiful.
Maybe stop calling each other 'djokobitch' and 'fedtard' and try to appreciate the fact that these guys are still even playing at their ages. Spend more time enjoying the damn sport than ruining it with stupid debates. Just watch the match for the sake of watching the match, not bragging about who wins. It's just immature as hell and tennis doesn't deserve to be turned into a political spectrum full of commenting gangs going around spreading insults.
Ok mom, sorry mom.
Agreed, at least the players respect each other. So many fans are ridiculous with their language and disrespect
Then let networks start by creating proper highlight videos, not this shit where most winning points shown are the ones won by Fed.
J024 doesn’t give people an excuse to insult fans. The point of highlights is to provide the most crucial points and the best points. Federer, by nature, hits more flashy winners than Djokovic. They’re trying to get people to watch the videos, not trying to provide a spread of points won corresponding to the total points won. Case in point: first set, Federer goes up 5-2 with several beautiful winners, taking a 16-2 lead in winners over Djokovic. Djokovic hits back by outlasting Fed in rallies and playing a beautiful tiebreak. Clearly Djokovic’s style won out, and often wins out, but it’s not the most watchable *in the minds of those who made this video*. At least that’s my guess.
@@owenlewis6399 That shouldn't be relevant. The Highlights should be balanced properly.

Novak's strategy against Federer-
1. Rally ball to Feds backhand
2. Play the ball low and deep
3. Slow down the pace of the rallies.
Feds backhand becomes weaker the more times he hits the ball with it. Add to the fact that the ball he receives are mostly deep and low which requires more accuracy and the right amount of power to return it properly. Novak also dictates the rallies by preventing Fed to use his favourite combo.
nah, his strategy is to wait until fed gets old and past his prime, injured and mentally weak from his battle scars.

Crowd : Roger. Roger.!
Djokovic : When the crowd chant Roger, i hear Novak. Hihihihihi.
Federer is doing all the running - back and forth - side to side. In order to produce those shots he needs to use his legs a lot - people are fools if they think that Federer's style of play is not exhausting - it is because. His fast and perfect shots are looking easy but they are produced with a lot of effort and a lot of knee bending - hence injuries in these areas. These highlights show actually how Djokovic is just standing on the baseline and directing the ball all over the court - this is his talent - a lot diversity at depth, angles and all kinds of placement of the ball. He is making his opponents to run across the whole court making offensive play with controlled aggression. This is 90% of this matches. But they always show his defensive skills and shots because they are very acrobatic and winners from sliding positions - his unmatched acrobatic abilities to hit balls while jumping for a slide, while on the move to the opposite side, etc. and always with a balance and at the centre of the racket - this sets him apart from all the players I have watched till now.

However, Djokovic gets called out for all sorts of gamesmanship yet Federer had a groin, back, groin, back, groin injury that didn't show up on a scan and rather than rest it he went to South Africa to play and beat Nadal. Nonsense. Djokovic realized about halfway through the first set that there was no injury and he had to focus. The end.

This is why FEDAL fans hate DJOKOVIC so much.. the numbers don't lie, NOVAK had the head to head records in terms of matches against these two, ESPECIALLY in terms of GRAND SLAM semis/finals.. everyone keep saying how Grand Slams are the determining factor for being the GOAT. Well, since 2011 until today (that's already 10 years btw), NOVAK had the RECORD against these two!
The ONLY reason why FEDERER had the most slams today is because he earned MAJORITY of those during 2004-2007, the time when DJOKOVIC who just turned pro and was just getting a hang of it, the professional tennis life, and Nadal getting the RG every year (only winning RG).
2004-2010 GS records:
Federer - 16 slams (majority of it came from 2004-2007)
Nadal - 9 slams
Djokovic - 1 slam
2011 - 2020 GS records:
Djokovic - 16 Slams
Nadal - 10 slams
Federer - 4 slams
Djokovic is just a year younger than Nadal and he is very close to matching his record considering that NADAL had turned pro much earlier than NOLE, PEAKED along with NOLE pretty much and won GS at such early age which made NOLE's wins even more impressive..
Roger won 16 of his slams when he was basically ALONE dominating the rest of the slams when Nadal was just solely winning clay court titles and major and Novak was just an upcoming player at age 18-20..
Novak had to play against NADAL, MURRAY, Del Potro and Wawrinka and Federer during his dominating years and he still managed to earn 16 slams..
GS records:
1. Federer - 20 GS wins; 11 finals
2. Nadal - 19 GS wins; 8 finals
3. Djokovic - 17 GS wins; 9 finals
now who's the GOAT?

@@Aman-nk5uq Nope pretty much alive, commenting here as proof. Did you btw mean that I would have died of shock after seeing Rafa beat Novak in straight sets? To politely respond, no I was not shocked. I was content in knowing that Novak made it to the finals. Beating Rafa is next to impossible on Clay, and the same goes for beating Novak at AO. I was wondering if you felt like dying during AO 2019 final, straight sets right?
You really need to get some perspective. If you want to get salty, then go post a comment on a Pro Roger video. Don't come here, just because you don't have anything to do in your life.
@@Aman-nk5uq so what's the point of bringing FO final?
@@Aman-nk5uq ohh u might be Rafan so u brought it here. Well then look at 2021 too
@@Aman-nk5uq L comment my dude, Nole destroyed Rafa even worse in the 2019 AO Final lol.
Typical example of biased media against Novak and pro Federer. Most of the highlights are Federer’s winning shots, while Novak beat him in 3 sets! Pathetic western media!
Don't cry now
I'm a neutral 😑 Don't worry Nole will have the last laugh.
Well said!
@@halfsouthafrican I don't think he's crying. His guy won in straight sets. Media and crowd are lacking class.
he won 3-0 but in the winners stats it was 46-31 for Fed so ofc highlights would favor him(mostly winners are shown)
17:28 furious look... precious!!!
Hello
The roar of Djokovic at 12:45 is like he's saying: "For you, Fedal hater"
Even if Djoković wins , No one can be ever compared to Federer as a man of complete WISDOM and the best player we all have ever seen
Literally no one can be like Federer!!
It’s true I’ve never seen such an amazing player with so much skill continually blow large leads, simply remarkable and enjoyable to watch Chokerer
So what? Djokovic is still GOAT.

Federer has the whole court going with him, still lost
Its comical how so many people credit all federer’s defeats to Novak to a “mental block” not because Novak is just better than him. Stop the BS! Its not a mental block. By saying its a mental block you guys diminish Novak quality. He is just a superior player, that’s it.
Igor Lucena as of now, he is definitely the better player. However, I do think a mental block exists even if it wasn’t highlighted here. It showed at the Wimbledon final last year when he had 40-15 and approached the net behind a poor forehand
It's a mental block
@@Rohit-yb5nf not only...it's also a question of tennis
And all other Novak’s 17 slams and possible slam record on the horizon is all a matter of “mental block” with the other players with him. Right. 👏. Genius.
Igor Lucena Lol, NEVER said that😂
I just think Roger could beat any player he faces, but Nole’s mentality is way better than Roger’s. Do you think that Nole was deserving to win last Wimbledon after losing his serve and being 40-15 down? Spoiler: NO, he wasn’t deserving to win. Roger missed the next points and lost because in crucial moments Nole takes better decisions while Roger (especially against him) is less lucid. Simple as that.
(Sorry if you notice some errors but I’m not English, I try my best to explain myself.)
After seeing the highlights, thought Federer was the winner... Well done Aus Open TV ....
In reality Djokovic beat roger, but in highlights it seems roger beat djokovic, 😆😆😆 a absolute middle finger
I completely agree with you. What a biased highlights, made by a Federer fan. It seems Djokovic fights against the opponent, against the crowd, and against the biased media!
@@enginduzu don't be dense. Djokovic plays a safer, more consistent game that relies on outlasting the opponent and letting him make an error. Federer is a play maker. It's very clear that Djokovic's method is better for winning, but Federer makes more highlight-worthy plays. No bias here.
@@jordyjordyjordyjordyjordy Facts.
@@jordyjordyjordyjordyjordy Mr 40-15 is putting a show to provoke the fans to go crazy against Djokovic and not playing fair like a champion. I think it's one of his tactics to distract Djokovic, but Djokovic has done his homework a long time ago, so he's ready to go.
Their differing game styles mean that roger generally produces more highlights, that’s all
Djokovic is a TIE-BREAK KING when it comes to playing Federer!!
3:41 he intentionally stood more to the right to bait djcovick into hitting it left. They playing on a whole another level.
After the last point, Djokovic showed his respect for Roger, and that he learned a lot from him, especially the finger stroke performed by Roger after 2011 RG SF.
Fortune changed at 4:11 to 4.30 in favor of Djoker. Fed missed easy forehand at 4.30, it would have given him to serve out on 5 is to 1 score.
Theres no fortune there. Federer missed in crucial moments and collapsed in the remaining of that set. Got into the tiebreaks but thats not his territory agaisnt Nole. Nothing new tbh
Crazy that Federer at this age is the age djokovic will be in 3 years. Fed was still great at almost 40 years of age
Great match on Djokovic's end. Federer was visibly worn from his 2 five-setters against Sandgren and Millman that really went the distance...Either way, we are fortunate to still see Federer and Djokovic dominate tennis as they have done over the past 2 decades (with Nadal) - truly incredible!
little did we know this was the last Federer-Djokovic match
And the last appearance at the Australian Open for Roger.
Federer was injured in Australian open 2020 mostly
What you talking about, their last match was the 2019 Wimbledon Final, and it couldn’t have been a better last match to end the era with.
@@justchillin6314 What are YOU talking about, the 2020 AO occurred after 2019 Wimbledon so this was in fact their last match. albeit a semi final.
@@tqsuited Well sh*t, of course it was 😂
Poor Federer,you have nightmares because of NOVAK DJOKOVIC....So many years you are his best client!!!
Deticated to all haters...
Get your head out of the gutter. Their head-to-head is still 23 to 27 and Novak is six years younger. It makes perfect sense that he's slightly ahead because he's slightly younger. Not to mention that Novak's 4-match lead happened during the 2016 season when Roger practically broke his back from scoliosis. And Federer had to adapt to all of the courts changing in the late 2000s. They all got way slower which is a huge advantage for Novak's groundstroke-based game.
The rivalry is very close but Novak clearly has unfair advantages that have to be considered.
@@theaviator1152 Perhaps the change of court surface in 2008 AO affected Federer's record @Melbourne . Since the change from Rebound Ace to Plexicushion happened , Djokovic has established his authority in Melbourne . Federer put @ disadvantage by the surface change.
@@theaviator1152 unfair advantages? His fault he younger?
razneK No, I’m saying it’s nobody’s fault, and Novak fans need to stop acting like it’s Roger’s fault with ‘weak era’ nonsense and Slam counts. Because when Roger was 32, he was still winning Slams continuously. He had accomplished almost everything Novak has today (except for winning all Masters 1000s but that’s because Rafa, Novak, Murray, Ferrer, Verdasco, Davydenko, Berdych were all in their freaking mid-twenties so don’t bother me about that!) And on that note, it’s not like anybody in their mid-twenties is giving Novak trouble today. Because they’re all Next Gen garbage! Thiem is like the only one who puts up any sort of fight! Think about it: up until around 2017, everybody in the top ten was over 27 or 28 years old. Now, they’re all under 25 (which is what we saw and were amazed by way back fifteen years ago when Roger was rising up and destroying poor Agassi lol) but instead of being great rookies like Roddick, Hewitt, heck even Rafa were, they’re trash! I mean, you had Dimitrov being number 3 for months! (Flashback to racket-smashing Baby Fed days) And the only reason Zverev was number four for so long was because of that super sketchy, really close, total BS win against Roger (remember, in the middle of a crucial point in the final tiebreak he suddenly started whining about a ballboy and stopped play). He literally did nothing else. He had NO TITLES and he’s number 4 for TWO YEARS! That’s how crap they are! This compares to how Roger had to overtake old GOATs Sampras and Agassi while fighting off Roddick by winning dozens of titles in a row, then Rafa had to beast his way through multiple clay seasons and finally win Wimbledon, then Novak had to emerge on hard courts and do marathon after marathon against Roger in New York, meanwhile they all have Murray, Safin, Ancic, Ferrero, Nalbandian, Gasquet, Haas, Berdych ALL lingering in the background! Plus the big guys like Isner, Querrey, Karlovic, and way more! Sorry not sorry, but the top 100 is GARBAGE compared to ten years ago!
You have to face it guys: tennis was the best ever from 2003 to 2015. There was no weak era for Roger: *it was a strong era for all of tennis*. And Novak is taking advantage of that now. I’m not saying he should be discredited, I’m just noting that he was born at literally the most convenient time imaginable to win. Lol
Aaron Maher I mean, I imagine that if he didn’t stall out with the racket switch, he could have peaked at 34. In fact, I would say 2015 was his best year since 2009.
40 year old Roger is 3rd in the World and still gives a hell of a fight to a god tier Novak. Novak's mind is just to strong and can comeback from anything. Nowadays no one can break Djokovic even twice a match but grandpa Roger did it more times in a set
Still couldn’t believe how Roggier lost 1st set after that...
ElVitico he was injured
Yeah, everything could be changed if he had won the 1st set
Anh Tran nothing would have changed
I just say "if, bro
@@toihoibinet1675 Dude needed an injection shot just to get through Sandgren. You think he was in any condition to face Novak?
Dude the match is unsensible
Biased video that mainly shows federer’s points won and skips Djokovic you would have thought Federer had won and he lost in straight sets! I was there live
😊😊😊
Exactly.
That's exactly why I love the part at 12:45 Novak is awesome
I know, it's fucking annoying. I know you're a fan, and I can respect that. But no need to overexaggerate
I understand. But Federer played like he had nothing to lose in the first set. Was going good till around 5-4. After that, that style of play effected him and his level dropped. Djokovic too got effected by Federer's drop and he too dropped his level. That's why the second and third set were kinda boring. Both players not too great, waiting for the other to make an error. In the first set Federer hit approx 25 winners to Djokovic's 5. That's why it seems like the highlights is Federer biased.
The first set was extremely close with multiple breaks exchanged.
The second set was close too but Federer got broken serving at 5-4 that too after it went to duece
The third set it clearly seemed that his injury started to impact his game.
It would be an enormous task to come back from 2 sets to djokovic
But the level of play in 2019 and 2020 AO by a 38yo federer (saving 7 match points in the previous game) against djokovic was amazing.
Thd only time djokovic ever dominated Federer was at 2016 AO first 2 sets
Are you not get bored making this kind of excuses ?? Djokovic 37 year old just beat the biggest talent the world has seen on clay for gold medal, 1.5 months after knee surgery. Just stop it, Federer is third best player ever and thats magnificient result.
Federer fans always complained Djokovic was 5 years younger.
Look now Djokovic is playing against 10-15 years younger players.
Not sure if the crowd was chanting Roger or Nole cuz like Nole said last year, sounds similar :p
Federer has to be the best player when it comes to playing through injury. I agree that the main reason is because of his style of play - dominating serve + attacking net play helping him to finish off points quickly. No one can do it better than him! To show up in matches sooo many times injured and still putting a gritty display is not easy. His determination and dedication is there to see. Playing against Djokovic naturally gave him that much more push to play at his best to try and beat him, but after Djokovic fought back from 1-4 0-40 in the first set, the fate of the match was sealed. Nevertheless as Djokovic said in post match interviews in SW 19 and after this one, Federer at 38 respect to Federer inspire everyone watching to play the game at the very top level despite all odds!
Djokovic is the best
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂good joke
@@sriramsrikanthan3218 Stats don't lie , he has been officially ATP's numero uno for the last decade. Please accept the reality, it will hurt less.

I think u have been starting to see the long tennis for two years otherwise u don't say as it
ruchi singh maybe you watched tennis 2003-2008 and stopped and suddenly started again in 2017 and stopped after AO 2018.
Federer absolutely exhausted here after his very tough matches in previous rounds. He only really got the lead in the first set because Djokovic seemed to have really bad nerves and played very tight at times. Djokovic switched his game on exactly when he needed it. Once Djokovic got his game going, Federer didn't have the energy left to keep up.
Blah blah blah you are blah blah blah
Here after watching AO2023…boy nole is so intimidated by roger. He is not even trying to go for rogers’ drop shots. What a magician roger is…RF❤️
Federer one the best players who played in Djoković era of tennis
Idk he definitely got to the one that ended the second set 😉
2:30 just going back and watching big 3 matches cuz I miss them. amazing how much djokovic has improved even recently (AO 2023 is happening right now). nowadays, djokovic instantly comes to net once he sees fed in trouble and finishes at net cleanly. even as recently as 2020, djokovic still wasn't as keen to move forward.
To play this well with injury! Wow! Federer never fails to surprise.
In slams Federer is 4-10 vs Nadal and 6-11 vs Djokovic, his 2 biggest rivals. 😬 But yeah he did very well against Roddick, Hewitt and whoever... so impressive.👏😏
What a shame that neither Djokovic nor Nadal have another all-time great player 4-5 years younger to keep at bay. A stain on their greatness, I say.
@Kevin Weng You lot are so obsessed with your Weak Era theory that you say the stupidest things without realising. Additionally, your comment is totally unrelated to mine, but you lot basically have Weak Era Tourette's at this point.
@Kevin Weng Yes, because getting older in competitive sports is merely a theory, obviously. You are welcome to think I'm audacious; your comment is still stupid and, more importantly, irrelevant.
@Kevin Weng Well, you see, I'm neither a teenager nor a Serb living vicariously through a tennis player I support, so I really don't see it necessary to "save" anyone from anything. Again, your "needing time to grow and mature" remark is not relevant to what I said, nor did I imply that it was not relevant in competitive sports, but have fun projecting. I find it honestly bizarre that so many of you think so little of Federer and his achievements and yet are completely obessed with him and his achievements. But I know y'all only started watching tennis ten years ago, so...
@Kevin Weng This is getting really boring and you can't possibly be this thick. You know full well that I am not sincerely making that statement, so why the disingenous argument? Simply to argue? As for your desperation for Federer fans to "just accept" whatever it is you feel needs just accepting, it is curious that you, along with many other fans, don't feel confident that the stats speak for themselves.
You might be X times champion of that tennis tournament but still large number of audience rooting for Roger Federer.
So you think Roger only wanted the crowd of the audiences and didn't want to win?? LOL
King Of Tennis. Novak Djokovic
He is no king. He is a champion with 8 titles alone in Melbourne, a great player whom I look up to.
He is no king as Melbourne does not regard him as the king here. The people choose their king, not the other way around. ATP announcers call him the king of Melbourne but I say again, we don’t see him as our king, and he never will be.
His attitude on and off the court is shit. He is a fake person with zero class. He may sound charitable but ultimately it is to make himself look good.
He should not be the king anywhere, even with 100 grand slams.
@@user-kd2ez2mb3c He's the king of double-handed tennis. It's actually bad for the game. Make it a game of skill again. Geez. With single handed tennis, you may get Theim vs Federer! Surely that is huge!!!
