Rafa and Roger locked horns in an AO classic earlier that year and then went on cheering for one another like nothing happened. Shows how great of a friendship and love they have for each other.
Man Kyrios is one of those guys you sit back and ask yourself how good could this guy be if he had the hunger and love for the game like the others Nick should have won that match absolutely an amazing talent to push Federer..
I think part of the reason Kyrgios makes so many great plays is the fact the he presents as though it really doesn't matter to him so he can swing away freely without concern for the outcome. That can also work against him when it comes to battling someone with the heart that Federer consistently expresses. When facing a man of solid character a renegade tends to be put off their rhythm when faced with the question - who wants it more.
Should've won? Should? Haha. There are no shoulds in tennis. Much less at that level. There was one of the two greatest tennis players of all time. The other cheering up for him. And on the other side of the court a mentally ill boy with rockstar super ego. Nite nite Nick 😂😂
You can look at it that way his one of very few from his age group to say he has wins against the three greatest tennis players we have been lucky enough to see..
@@78tagnick definitely wanted it more. Can you not see the man battling against one the greatest players of all time, fighting tooth and nail for every point, and then nearly brought to tears 28:58 at the letdown for his team.
There first 2 matches was 6 sets total of tie breaks. Federer ran away with the h2h but I’m sure even after the first 2 matches, there were many tie breaks
Living precariously on the edge of Roger's racquet with Rafa doing triple duty as coach, cheerleader & conductor. Was this war? It goes without saying that the level of play & competitiveness matched the increasing decibels of cheers & groans from all around. The editing was superb. Thanks for the effort. ❤
Nick is a very talented player who doesn’t take the sport very seriously but man wta match it was… rafa supporting his long term rival roger is merry to the eyes. This shows how a rivalry can turn into a beautiful friendship
When Kyrgios is in the zone the only thing you can do is get him to make unforced errors and get him frustrated. Cause when he is feeling it, his normal balls all hit like incredible serves themselves. And ironically, his own service it's like a machine. When he is feeling it, he returns an incredibly good serve with a return that's even faster and more dangerous. With Federer he doesn't have to complete at his peak feeling it, he can be mediocre and return most balls that aren't the dangerous ones. And after a while Kyrgios will get mad, take more risks, hate himself for it and instead of being content with playing longer rally's he goes ahead and still does his second serves like first ones, and doesn't block fast serves, but does the flick of the wrist.
For some reason when I see Kyrgios I imagine him as a kind of guy who’s just naturally good at every sport and one day saw Federer on TV and thought “I can beat him” and went pro over night 😂
Dick Krybabios is ALWAYS the biggest a-hole on the tennis court 😂 plus with all the tacky gold chains he looks like some kind of Greek pimp with a bad attitude 😆
@@chambatips3619he has always been a team player although he hates Kyrgios. I hate Kyrgios too with , can’t stand his spitting on court and out of the blue meltdown
love him or hate him. he may not have the grand slams, but you gotta admit nk is one of the most gifted and most entertaining tennis players we've ever seen
These were tennis gods, even Mac and Borg were exilarated!!! Was this as good as the Wimbledon final of 2008? Its matches like this that make you take up the sport!!! Your comments!
Kyrgios dominated the match, but Federer clung on with relentless determination. In the end, he emerged victorious, proving that winning is second nature for true champions, even in the face of adversity.
Have to add after seeing this that Kyrios is more a team player, he was definitely playing 4 the guys & no temperament flair ups…very very cool & you could see that was hard 4 him at times. What a pity he couldn’t hold it together for his own games 🧐. 🆒👍🏻💯
We will probably never see another beautiful single-handed backhand again. Roger said himself that if he had to learn tennis again he'd probably use a double-handed backhand.
100% not true. the limitation of the backhand before was getting the weight and inertia of the wooden racket moving in time to contact the ball in front. i would more say that both styles will be used by the same player in the future depending on the situation. Federer proved that the one-handed backhand can do everything that the two can and it offers more reach and less energy consumption.
@terrenceolivido741 100% true that Fed said that. I disagree that the one-handed backhand can do exactly what a double-handed backhand can on a consistent basis for individual players, same for the other way around. But I still believe one can be a top 5 player with a single handed backhand in the future. Anyway that's not what the og post was about.
@@terrenceolivido741 Why are there only a few players in the first hundred with one handed backhand then, if it "can do everything that the two can and it offers more reach and less energy consumption." and causes wrist injuries?
@@pinhe4d321 ok ...., the truth is the one-handed backhand will require 3 times more training time to master than the two. it is true that if you are young your body can withstand the extra work and stress of the two-hander . Federer proved what the one-hander can do in modern tennis. i have no problem using combinations of the two. what about a right handed and left handed forehand for that matter ( switch hands ) Monica Seles used a reverse grip on her backhand. she hit two handed from both sides. my main point is the one-hand backhand - while hardest to master - results in the most beautiful body positions. you can snear at that if you want. as far as you and your peers - you could ask - " if being smart were an advantage, how come me and my buddies out-reproduce everyone ? same point - though you will probably not be able to understand it.
@@terrenceolivido741 I think you guys both have good points but that this discussion is a lot more technical than even you guys got into. Let's agree that some sports simply have space for multiple styles. I personally LOVE me some reverse backhand penhold in table tennis, but that doesn't mean it is better than shakehand. Consistency probably is the most important trait of any sport. And a smidge of luck
the master looks old - but he is undisputably the greatest of all time. ... kudos to djokavich and nadal. love to see my old masters, Borg and Mcenroe hanging out with the kids.
without overstating: for me, the matches with NK are the most entertaining to watch within the whole tennis sport. if he had a better mental strength, he would have been near to unbeatable.
Kyrgios mostly a servebot. The rest of his game is by no means on the level of the topplayers. Guys like Karlovic and Isner were also hard to break on the fast surfaces and they also played a lot of tiebreakers. Most people think Kyrgios is a great talent, but playing umorthodox tennis doesn't mean that you are incredibly talented. In most cases it means that you don't have enough talent to win by "normal" tennis.
Federer did what he had to ..didn't try to outhit kyrios who was playing well..he used his experience especially towards the end with percentage play..he knew unforced errors would make the difference

smiled throughout the whole match - what a great match from both.
Kyrgios hate eveyone who beats him he is a real loser i think this guy should make a therapy
What a contrast of beautiful talents - raw, crude Aussie v/s refined, elegant Swiss.

feeling grateful that Roger put together this team event. It is special to see the drama unfold here.
Federer vs Kyrgios is an Underrated Rivalry . Wish we got more of their matches
They played at Miami a few years before Fed retired I think...look it up, incredible match - super close
There first 2 matches was 6 sets total of tie breaks. Federer ran away with the h2h but I’m sure even after the first 2 matches, there were many tie breaks
Krygios is no match on a young RF.
No one wants to see more of Dick Krybabios, he's ALWAYS the biggest a-hole on the court

😂😂😂
man id cry too if the match ended like that with the greatest players of all time watching
No doubting Federer's class, but by God is the little Aussie firecracker good to watch too. Great match.

Even though I knew the result it still had me on the edge of my seat 😁😁
for a moment i forgot the result and i was dying not knowing who would win
When Kyrios played drama free tennis he was as good as the 3 kings .
When Kyrgios is in the zone the only thing you can do is get him to make unforced errors and get him frustrated. Cause when he is feeling it, his normal balls all hit like incredible serves themselves. And ironically, his own service it's like a machine.

he has the best bag of any pro player ive ever seen. just has every shot.
For some reason when I see Kyrgios I imagine him as a kind of guy who’s just naturally good at every sport and one day saw Federer on TV and thought “I can beat him” and went pro over night 😂
Yeah he is naturally talented and gifted but mentally very weak
@@mokaddemabderrahim6119he battles himself.
@@jeffwhite1334 he’s a fun player. Great to watch.
An embarrassment to Aussie tennis. Wish he would just disappear. Sad that i wanted Federer to win really
😂😂
I am from rest of the world. But my heart wanted Roger to win!! He patiently hung on till the end.. What a game. ❤
Kyrgios's serve is next to perfection. Jeez! just like the speed of light.
His ball toss is so consistent opps can’t read it it’s so crazy
Closest to Isner
Except - it never won him a single GS. Which tells you, an incredible serve alone isnt getting you anywhere...
Dick Krybabios is ALWAYS the biggest a-hole on the tennis court 😂 plus with all the tacky gold chains he looks like some kind of Greek pimp with a bad attitude 😆
It's about 1.078e+9 slower than the speed of light =p
LoL they played it like a grand slam final!
This is the best match I’ve seen Kyrgios play!!!!!!! I love federa and Rafa but I will always back my Aussie
Rafa is a team player at heart. He loves Laver Cup.
No, he hates kyrgios
@@chambatips3619 No lo odia, no es tan importante...solo lo trata como el ser despreciable que es

Yeah extremely talented and naturally gifted but mentally he is very weak
If he had what it takes mentally he could’ve beat the shit out of everybody big 3 included
NK is super talented he just needs to be focused. Never seen anyone play like him before. Rocket.
Nick is not hitting the ball, he launches rockets 🚀. What a pleasure to watch him play!
@@ovld2023what are you 80 yrs old
federer giving me heart attacks in both tie-breakers
What a legend …FEDERER for ever
Nice editing! Never heard of the Laver Cup but this was top notch.
Thanks for the Captions of what the players say during the points 👍🏻
Best Exhibition Match EVER
Tsitsipas vs Nadal abudhabi is a war
Great commentary, production, and highlights brother !
Thanks man 🙏
What a brilliant match between 2 of my favorites. Thanks WivoRN!
That environment was electric

18:47 Rafa: we're closed tonight
23:37: your pal with u all the way through
Surprised Nick kept going for his backhand. Roger’s cross court backhand is killer
"You lost to Federer" takes some of the sting out of it. tavi.

Watching the USO finals of while watching this match lol
@@Sinn3r22this is more exciting than USO…..
14:47 what a great point
Muchas gracias !!! Qué partidos... Qué tiempos !!!
Jajaja ganar a kyrgios... No hay nada mejor jajaja qué mal perder tenía 😅😂😂🤣😂🤣🎾
what a match!
the black and white court against the red and blue clothes looks really badass
the whistle from nicks dad is so unique^^
Federer is the undisputed Grandseigneur of tennis. And Kyrgios is hell of talented, like probably nobody was.
Nadel is gonna make a great coach!
3x watching this historic classics tennis game
i didnt know, Fed , Nadal, even Nick, took the laver cup seriously, its not a exhib
First view on this channel. I do appreciate the colors. This might be a good thing because it's easier to view. I like the color contrast.
Glad you enjoyed it buddy
The thrill of Victory (28:44) and the agony of defeat (28:58)
7:00 my god what a SERVE
Goodday. Speak to me,I am nearer. Cobus🐳
Roger could probably come out of retirement tomorrow and make it to the semis of Wimbledon.
it was kyrgios’a game to win, and his to lose. He just happened to be playing with Federer.
Amazing quality
Glad you liked it ❤️
i miss roger very much
The Goat will ever be Federer and Nadal ❤
We love to see it!
I remember this match, Davis Cup, a true epic. Kurios was devasted when he lost and the Europeans won.
kyrgios was crazy good 🎉
the only Rivalry of Kyrgios is with himself, sadly
Kyrgios's such a beast!!
kyrgios at his finest. he went downturn since then.
Definitely one of the weirdest courts I’ve seen lacking any colour makes everything else so vibrant
yoooo the ending edit was dope af why did those bubbles pop out so early
the master looks old - but he is undisputably the greatest of all time. ... kudos to djokavich and nadal. love to see my old masters, Borg and Mcenroe hanging out with the kids.
After watching an entire season of Sinner's tennis, is mindblowing how slow the ball moves here
Welcome relief from US Open, watching Djokovic let Derek appear to win😅
Cant be a better ending for a Laver cup, can be?!
Rare footage of Nick actually trying
And not even %100 😅
Federer knows how to make men cry..
Nick 😢
It's official. Write it down. Kyrgios can't beat Federer on Federer's worst day.
'Think there's some tensity out there?' Excuse me, some what?!
without overstating: for me, the matches with NK are the most entertaining to watch within the whole tennis sport.
if he had a better mental strength, he would have been near to unbeatable.
Close but no cigar, Kyrgios.. 💪RF
legend!Alien!!
Is there something wrong with the image contrast on this video or am I tripping?
18:47 😂
ofc Fed is thegoat but Nick is so good lmao
24:27 McEnroe knew
This match felt like Daniel son fighting against Cobra Kai 😂
Surely Nick Kyrgios tears are a valuable commodity somewhere right?
Nk was way better than the GOAT that night . Hope if he won one Grand chelem in his carrer
What year was this?
2017
Kyrgios mostly a servebot. The rest of his game is by no means on the level of the topplayers.

Most people think Kyrgios is a great talent, but playing umorthodox tennis doesn't mean that you are incredibly talented.
In most cases it means that you don't have enough talent to win by "normal" tennis.
Perhaps Kyrios could hv been among the greats,if his temperament was inline with the game of tennis …sadly it’s not or he has allowed it to rule him 🥺
Kygs is at his best against the GOATs. Tennis is too easy for him otherwise.
Less crowd support to kyrgios, still played highest quality game and almost won it
gila seru banget.
Just realized bjorn borg is there too!
Kyrios played better!!
Tough loss
Ferderer: dont mess with the rules,
God Roger was so nervous throughout this match😅
Hey, maybe Nick will play LC again this year! Without Fed, he'll have a betterchance of winning😄.
Where has the colour gone from the background?
Idk it’s definitely one of the strangest courts I’ve seen makes everything else look really colourful
Nick was such a gifted player ! I wish he was more disciplined
Federer didn't win this match, he hung on until Kyrios lost.
Some focus under pressure, some pops. Kyrios is the latter. That’s part of sport.
Federer did what he had to ..didn't try to outhit kyrios who was playing well..he used his experience especially towards the end with percentage play..he knew unforced errors would make the difference
Don't you forget miami 2017 when federer defeated kyrgios
Kyrgios is not even in the same level as Federer. He doesn’t even have one grand slam title.
Sounds like a win to me
Can you send me the link to your intro tune
Of course, buddy! It's Naruto Rainy day remix by Ksolis on UA-cam
Kyrgios played amazing but he was getting too nervous or playing with pressure. He was leading 8-5 in the tie breaker 💀
One of those matches where Kyrgios goes 100% but stil loses
Yeah well he was against one of the best players to ever play the sport
Whoa the tennis court forgot that we have color
Kyrgios nightmare = Sinner
Adds are such a pain in the …
