After losing one legend, let's all appreciate and cherish the ones that are still around.
Very well said... Some people forget...
@Darrow Au Andromedus Kobe.
@Darrow Au Andromedus Oh not a tennis legend, but a basketball one. Kobe.
@@radugavrilovits4803 I think people get too caught up in the debates and discussions and sometimes it turns into a negative such as hate. It's all so silly in the grand scheme of things. Would be nice if people were more into just appreciating the greatness that we are able to witness in our lifetimes.
So true man
He actually sweats now. In 2007 he could play a 5 hour match and look like he just he just woke up lol
He is human now in last decade he was superhuman
I mean that's like 13 years ago
What match?
Humidity is too high in Australia right now. That’s why he’s sweating now, nothing to do with age 😀. That’s also why the speed of the court is too slow this year.
Global warming 😂
The level of honesty. Respect
And grace.
Integrity brings graces, he did his best and God did the rest.
He is genuinely a class act.
Give me a break licking licking
Lindo
Hes a gift
“Let him finish me off in style...”
Smiles
Those few moments 1:33 - 2:46 OMG The look on his wife face! Priceless
Let him bust on my face
Only Federer can say that word that "I don't deserve it". A rare guy who respects his opponents
Oh, so you deny that Kyrgios respects opponents? xD How come? xDDD
Everyone in tennis respects opponents
@@vika0194 Not always or not everybody, or not always they show it ;-)
You are wrong. Serena said it last year in the US open and she was harassed for it. What a difference in treatment!!
@@doksh5740 Ahat are yoy taking about? I didn't get it :-(
Jim Courier, one of the best tennis journalists, knows how to ask questions.
Jamie Jobb former world number 1? 😂
Amen.
Jamie Jobb yeah,I dont like the other one
agreed, why do they let the american in, it's Australia here
Oh yes the best along with McEnroe
well done Federer you’re the Legend
He really has the heart of a true champion.....thats what edged you from the other champs....a unique...extraordinary...all the way...thank you ROGER... you are a true legend in tennis sport...
yeah, he gives us the whole deal for sympathy towards him
“It was stiff and tight and I just wanted to let him finish me off in style”
😜
That’s why he’s the goat
Roger Federer knows how to win with grace, lose with grace and Escape with grace. Today, he thereby epitomized the essence of the sporting nature in all of us.
Lol!!!! Dirty fed!
That's what he said 😂
I couldn't help but notice that old age(in tennis years) has caught up with him. He used to be able to thrive and not just survive matches. For players there seems to be a balance between their mental capability and physical capability. As you age, your physical capacity decreases but your mental capacity improves. What Federer calls "luck", is purely his mental ability to make the best use of his body and opponent's weakness to stay in the game.
Well done Roger 👍🏻 You are unknowingly teaching a lot to the younger generation.
Yea well that's only is the younger generation can pick up on it
Well said
or its just luck as he said. he was lucky, whats your point of not accepting it
You failed to philosophise on the role the opponent plays in any outcome; that is, nerves, self-belief issues, fitness, awe, blah blah blah
@@simonweingartner5783 Sure. I didn't say I don't accept it. This was just my interpretation.
Love how he can still joke about or make the interview a lot more relax
Roger's loss at Wimbledon hurt me. He DID deserve that one.
He can not beat Novak anymore its very sad to watch
@@joeplaneta905 he beat Djokovic in London later that year. And he was literally twice within one shot from winning Wimbledon in 2019. So he definitely Can (or could until November 2019)
Let's see how Federer's 2021 return goes.
@@lieviontennisandwrestling2814 injured, injured and injured. It’s so sad 😢
Absolutely.. losing it in 5 sets actually looks bad on Novak.
It took Novak that long to finish Roger off at 38 yrs of age, without breakpoints in earlier sets and needed an epic tiebreak to take Roger down.
This loss is more valuable than an easy victory. This should not have to be a sore for Roger’s fan.
You lose some and gain some. Losing 6-0 last set by hubie at Wimbledon hurts me, and never liked Hubie since then.
He does deserve it. He has had some tough losses the last couple of years. The clutch play he has shown this week has been incredible. He was unlucky in Wimbledon but Djokovic just played the big points better. On the big points today, Federer was an absolute wall and deserved everything he got
Matthew Maguire Very true. And sometimes in the past he has been accused of not really having that “do or die” mentality (which I’ve always felt is nonsense). This proves once more he is a fighter.
That Wimbledon finals was really unfortunate for him. But yeah, it’s true sometimes you also need a bit of luck to get through.
he doesnt deserve it
jobale jochum what makes you think that
@@estel6137 Because Tennys bet a million dollars that he would lose the match to Roger. How else will he get rich? Just kidding
Believe me Federer... You deserve many more titles.
@@doksh5740 If he deserved to lose, he wouldn't be the winner. However, he's still the winner. It's the official rule of any sport.
@@doksh5740 Federer is the greatest player...but no one can beat ageing.
@@humanfirst11 And who is arguing that?
@@humanfirst11 How do you know Federer is even human?
@@diegosotomiranda4107 no one is arguing that, and that is my point as well!
This morning I left at 0-1 in the tiebreak. I thought "well, even if he wins this set, Sandgren is gonna destroy him in the fifth" and now I'm watching this! Is this real? He played more than 1500 matches in his career and he never gave up. He always kept playing until the end. I almost feel like the word "legend" is not enough for him. It's an overused word which has lost it's significance.
Yes very true. He is so much more than just a legend
He’s a legendary legend.
He's king legend of legends..
Rafa fan but this made me cry!
Go Roger!
@White Samurai FEDERER IS ALWAYS THE N.1
@D D FEDERER THE GOAT 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Honestly Haven't ever seen anyone so humble as this So he should be given his due that's why Miracles happen to those that truly deserve it well done
"Roger Federer you are not like anyone I ever met" Jim said the obvious
Atif Diyal but he’s met Roger heaps
The man truly embrace that fact that he is getting old, you can surely see how much he cherished his time in the courts. Go FedEx
*This man is gold we have to preserve him*
He literally pulls people to Tennis no one can ever match him
Honest , inspiring yet A unique breed of tennis world . Kudos champion 👍👍
So humble and a great champion and human being!
but he deserved to win Wimbledon last year but wasnt lucky, thats how it goes.
wow, nice to see that so many people agree with me(edit).
@Kopliko Kot ???
@Kopliko Kot lol that's why he won 20 grand slams 😂😂
@Kopliko Kot what? Your comment doesn't make any sense.
Absolutely he should of won Wimbledon, I still can’t bring myself to watch it to this day...
Exactly I was gonna say that..
These two... right? Best tennis player in history with best after-match interviewer in history
True, better than Mac.
Seems like a super-nice guy.
indeed
Since he got old
he won sportsman of the year 5 times because of that
So humble and well deserved to win. even harder or softly he is still MY KING
Love that guy - he’s been squeaking by but he’s still standing - unlike Tsitsipas and most of the other young dudes
This guy deserves an oscar!!!!
I mean 7 match points saved or how many?? This guy is beyond epic!
What's with 7 match saved? Sorry don't know much about this.
Kurapika Nostrad his opponent was 1 point away from winning 7 times in this match but Federer won all of those points and then took the win. Normally it takes only 1 or 2 match points to win, let alone 7 to then lose. Pretty incredible by fed
@@gdtetra208 yes, you are right GD tetra, but what is more unique for Federer is that he has done this in many many occasions so that's why I said beyond epic.
If you compare Rafa against Federer, not because I want to take away credit from rafa but roger have done more remarkables comebacks than rafa.
TBH six points out of seven were on his serve.
@@spiderguy75 but still amazing, or??
“It was just stiff and tight... just let him finish me off in style” omg 😂
He does deserve everything. He is an inspiration to the whole world. He is 38 and still playing at the top level. It is a result of hard work and dedication to this sports. He deserves everything he wins 🤠💯💪👍
Beautiful words, Assad. 😊
I am a fan of Federer but I would not say he deserves to win just that he is Federer. If he plays well, then yes, but if he does not, then he deserves to lose.
@@doksh5740 I mean yes by Roger standards he played pretty bad, but that "pretty bad" was enough to beat a "pretty good" Sandgreen, so Roger still deserved this win obviously
@@doksh5740 Man look at his age and plus his dedication to this sports. He does everything to win and that's why he deserves to win such battles in which however he gets lucky sometimes. Just look how he came back from the defeat in the match against sandgren. That tells u everything about fedrer and he was so calm at that moment and he maintained the composure throughout the game. So...
What a pleasant personality!
Hope we see another fedal in the final
🐐🇨🇭🐐🇨🇭
A guy so huge in status yet humble, cmon it’s amazing.
Roger Federer: saves 7 match points and wins the match with an injury
Also Roger Federer: I don't deserve this
He's so humble. That's why he's one of the greatest in my book!!!
I love Djokovic most but I love Federer so much as well. Just great ambassador and human beings. Thank you
Roger utilise souvent le mot incroyable dans ses interviews en français . Aujourd'hui il a raison d'ajouter le mot miracle .
Saint Roger !
Je crois qu'après ce match on a l'ultime confirmation qu'il est vraiment divin ainsi que divinement accompagné/guidé dans sa passion 😊😊.
bons mots. Il est le roi de tennys
😊 , mais j'ai lu qu'il avait pris des anti-inflammatoires et ça c'est pas miraculeux pour la suite !
Love u Roger for your honesty and immense love and passion for the game of tennis..
One of the greatest sportsman, a true champion and a gentleman. Roger deserves everything he has achieved. A man to admire.
good to see Courier back doing the post match interviews!
What an incredible gentleman. We are lucky to be a witness of your greatness Roger!
really enjoyed this interview
It's so cool to see Federer just putting it all out there as long as he's able at the highest level, and having some fun doing it.
Always man enough to acknowledge what is good in his opponent. Small wonder that he is loved and respected by so many.
@Capt Fathom
Hopefully, they will learn from him.
This is y he is living & playing legend ♥️♥️♥️
There is nothing called 'luck' and 'miracle'. Its your focus dealing with adverse situations and execution of skills you earned in this long journey that helped you come out as winner.
GOAT
Yeah we’ll see against Djokovic😂😂😂😂
He didn’t say greatest current player, he said of all time. Federer in his prime out classes Djokovic tenfold
GOWE
@@stuewz will see mate... Don't b overconfident.. Rf will beat djoko 😎😎
Raz Khan scapegoat 😀😀
No classier man ever graced the tennis court like Roger Federer! Class personified! Thanks for all the great memories. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🙏🏼🎾🎾🎾
is refreshing hear the best players in tennis history .. byng so modest and honest..
Roger in tennis like Lee Chong wei in badminton and Messi make the sport feel like art.
lmao imagine beeing that good, having a hell of great career in tennis and he is still humble, now we all know why god had choosen him, roger you are the one, you re the best, wish you great luck against djoko
Just incredible player. Love him above all!!!
He is an amazingly hamble person and he definitely deserves it and lots more. I don't think there will be another like him ever..inside and outside the courts.
That's what separates great from the rest. Even on a bad day they do find a way to win.
He deserves this win. Tennis is not only skills and levels also mentality. He has been gone through too many this kinda situation and he knows how to deal with. He is true winner. If you cant control your emotions and mentality , no matter how good you play ,you cant win. Roger you are the real and always winner.
Unbelievable,great escape,hope to see him in the final match, congats Roger!
Just fantastic wow ur a fighter our King Roger u certainly work for this win awesome he had his chances.
Its unreal watching in hindsight how he dug deep during all those match points...I’ve seen so many of such points end in a backhand to the net but he kept going...
But nothing can soothe the pain of Wimbledon 2019...God it still hurts
Absolute legend, my all time favourite sportsman!
I miss the old days where he played 5 set matches and we didn't care because we knew he was young enough to recover now it's a tense waiting game to see if he will even play the semis
@V P calm down mate if he retired 5 years ago he'd have retired with 17 slams you knuckle head .......think before you speak
@V P hahahaha your a funny guy I'll leave you to believe your fantasy
Effort like no other, I didn’t want roger to win as I backed Sandgren but goes to show what a champion he really is .
Incredible effort.
So humble!! But you deserve it man!!
Humble , honest and a champion. That's a hell of a combination.
Humble, insidefull, brutally honest and interesting person.
Tennis will never recover when this man throughs his raqueta away. ¡ WILL NEVER BE THE SAME WITHOUT YOU, ROGER ! 😊😣
Just a class act! Great sportsman and gentleman!
Roger Fighter 💯
He’s going to have to bring something special for his next opponent...
Maybe fly home before it, Djoker will destroy him if he plays like today.
@@kanekane1265 show some respect towards federer please.
it is not always the game lets u win he was in top best form last year wimbeldom2019 but luck eluded him he failed but the lady luck is smiling on him respect natures wisdom if he has won two tough matches something his in offering may be he will win the tournament even though i doubt so but if luck is on his side then no joker no poker but remember he is a class apart and its not that he always depends on luck he has got his game too
@@JustFun-fe7ux I respect him as much as anybody else, but if he plays like he does right now, he is no match for Djokovic at all.
@@kanekane1265 i think the fly home comment was a bit too much but good if you have respect towards him👍🏻. There are a lot of big 3 fanboys that are hating against the other two... sadly.
Love this guy forever
Roger go and win A O
Would be nice but can't see it he's gonna be too tired to beat djokovic I don't know if he will even play the match
@@98TheJackInTheBox Who knows? Everything is possible! Will see ;-)
@@vicvic553 not when you've got the goat on the other side of the net tho
@@98TheJackInTheBox You're thinking of Djoko as a goat? xD
@@vicvic553 it's hard to argue otherwise and im actually a Federer fan but you look at the stats head to head and it shows djokovic is more clutch under pressure I hate to admit it tho
Roger we all love you and I believe in you❤️❤️ goooo Fed❤️
Such a humble gentleman he is!
Sandgren earned a lot of respect in the locker room to get 2 6-2 sets on Federer and 7 match points.
I love this man so much he is so 😭
The greatest.
@WARRIOR FIGHTER PAHLAWAN nadal cant win big at the ao tho
@WARRIOR FIGHTER PAHLAWAN Everyone has his favorite. Dont get salty.
Federer is GOWE
@WARRIOR FIGHTER PAHLAWAN at least say Novak, Rafa doesn't come close. A true champion must be great in all surfaces. Rafa wins more than half his titles in clay court
@@Phurngirathaana what does GOWE mean??
You deserved every bit of it old man, keep going!
What a man
Also, where is Djoker wife?
The ultimate, professional, sporting, gentleman ! Legend!
He's a legend....
Such an inspiration.
Humility at its best!
Pero que pedazo de hombre, como puede ser tan perfecto?
This guy is an hell of a sportsman and seems like a really nice person.
Fed the boss
Federer didnt get lucky, we got lucky to have him playing and to watch this great player
These and many more are the reasons why we adore and look up to you Federer! Even Sandgren won't want you apologizing for this win!!!
Une belle preuve d’honnêteté. Certains joueurs devraient s’en inspirer après certaines victoires
Ladies and gentlemen you just saw the BEST ON COURT TENNIS INTERVIEWER,it continues scoring aces in tennis ,Congratulations my friend you doing yr job very well thank you .
2:22 "I belive in miracles" i d pray for you roger!
What do you know.
A real person and not a super human.
I wish they all would be so genuine in interviews.
Unbelievable performance incredible terrific,
That's life, Roger. When something is handed to you, take it and you did - good for you and good luck all the way. You are, indeed, a good person!
2:28 that’s how real it is for his girls. I’m speechless at how down to court ( earth ) Federer is, to play like this still with everything he’s done . Is truly remarkable...a proper draw in n my opinion. Tested to the full...
An Act of class.
Federer's post match interviews itself too entertaining
Jim you beauty
After retirement there’s no question hel be in commentary box around world!!!
Who better than a 20 grand slam champ?
My favorite player. Talented, hard working, humble, and funny. I hope he retires soon though, still at his peak, still competitive.
Jim is the best person to do on Court Post match interview with Roger...Even Roger enjoys being interviewed by Jim. They make.a great combo
Didn’t know Bastian Schweinsteiger was an on court interviewer now
Are you an idiot?
Dominic Wolfgang you are an idiot
Nicht mal ansatzweise
Dominic Wolfgang 🤦♂️
Bastian has a good retirement option😂😂😂
At the end of the day, RF is still a human. Love the interview and thanks for sharing!
this is a very humble man
Son to 39 in the semif..where is the next gen??Medium talent they are..God bless you..Rog...🙌💥
Absolutely wrong, Roger is from another planet, he is the 🐐
The best of this match it was Mirka's reactions.
Dude is a class act! Calls it like it is!
