Not really , Federer had a "weak " backhand and was beaten many times by Nalbandian , but once he improved his " deffect " and Nalbandian got fat , he turned the status . When Nalbandian retired , i think their H2H was 15- 14 for Federer.
@@zachmason868 And how many Slams do they have? In 2015 those players were under 20 except Thiem. So Djokovic never had much competition. And now Medvedev, Tsitsipas and Zverev are in the middle of their 20s and still dont have a GS. Thiem is now 27 and has only one GS.
This video is incorrect!! It shows Nadal losing number one to Novak in July 2011 and then In the same year later Nadal is again no. one!! Novak lost no. 1 in 2012 not in 2011.
After that elbow injury he came and won further 7 Slam . This IS one of the biggest comback after getting injured and after 30 winning Slam which IS the most by aby tennis player after getting 30
Ohh you just wait! In a couple of years this won’t look nearly as impressive as having surpassed Borg’s entire slam tally of 11 titles only starting from his return to form from grass court chunk of the 2018 season! And these 7 that he did win already aren’t just ANY 7 tournaments either! He basically completed a freaking career grand slam again ALL WHILE IN HIS 30’s!!! Lool He already repeated entire slam tally of all time tennis greats like McEnroe and Wilander and the best thing? It’s far from being over! Veeery far!…
O único que nunca saiu do Top Ten desde 2005! Mais de 16 anos no Top Ten!!!!!! O único, junto com André Agassi a completar o "Golden Slam " ( ganhar todos os Grand Slam + o Ouro Olímpico). Para mim o maior de todos os tempos!!!!!
2 things come right to mind: 1) how much long Nadal has passed at number two; 2) Much respect to Murray. In this brutal era, won 3 majors, 2 olympic gold medals, 1 Davis Cup, 14 Masters and became No 1!
or maybe even more to Wawrinka. Unbelievable that he won 3 Slams on 3 different surfaces by having to beat these guys. If he had not played the best match of his life at 2015 RG, Novak would have then won a calendar slam. But he won the Grand Slam anyway, by holding the 4 in the same time.
That's one of the reasons it is so clear that the goat is Novak, then comes Nadal then comes Federer. But respect them all! They are the biggest Legends of the game we love so much.
@@mirkom4599 I think feds may be better than Nadal cuz of versatility..I mean nadal has 13 RG of his 20 slams 😅. But hands down Novak is the greatest ❤️❤️
For sure! Until Roddick, always had 2 or 3 in the top10, but now, after Federer and Nadal dominate in 2005/2006, we don't see any player that constantly made the top10
-PLEASE. He lost the final Slam (USO) easily. -He lost the semi-finals (NOT the final, mind you) at the year end finals. And the ATP still has him at #1? -Only a rats ass would have him at #1 right now. -He has won against others at slams and tournaments apart from The Other Two--one MUST consider the others' injuries. -The ATP has kept him at #1 just to spite Roger and Nadal. When idiots say 'the ATP doesn't like Novak,' you are as mindless as stupid does. Roger and Rafael are THE GOAT. But also Novak.
That 16950 by Djokovic is scary - holding 10/14 of the big tournaments at once! Same number as Rafa has won EVER (has not won WTF, Miami, Shanghai or Paris)
Further more All 14 elite tour level tournaments won 2 times or more! 11 of 14 won 3 times or more; 9 of 14 won 4 times or more and finally 7 of 14 which is still half of all yearly elite events won 5 times or more!! Lol Nobody will ever match that all-court anomaly!
If someone is curious which are the 7 elite tournaments, that Novak won 5 times or more they re following: 1.Australian Open - 9 (Fingers crossed for double digits!) 2.Miami Open - 6 (tied with Agassi! Hope he surpasses him with 7!) 3.Indian Wells - 5 (joint with Federer! Again hope he surpasses him as well!) 4.Wimbledon - 5 (This most definitely moves up at least one or two more!!) 5.Rome - 5 (to me that’s enough…wish he didn’t lose so many finals though…) 6.Paris (Bercy) - 5 (imho more than enough!) 7.Year-End Championships - 5 (May or may not surpass Federer! 50% chance!)
@@aarinhegde6083 Rafa won Cincinnati in 2013 so not sure what you're on about there. Famously it was the year he did the Montreal/Cincy double on the way to the US Open title.

More like 70’s and 80’s! In the 90’s only Edberg was winning grand slams and even he only got 3! Not much of dominating! 70’s were all about Borg, while 80’s culminated into Borg passing torch to Wilander first and Edberg soon after!
Thank you for the video. Great work. Sport achievements are and should be measured (thanks to Fisher we have statistics) and it is undoubtedly clear who is leading atm and who is on the way to become '' of all time''.
After Djokovic showed up in 2008, the so called 'GOAT' Federer won 5 Grand Slam titles from 2008 - 2017. Then when Djokovic had elbow problems, during his recovery and comeback period (2017-2018) Federer wins another 3 Grand Slams . After Djokovic came back in 2018 to dominate again, Federer has no Grand Slam titles 2018 -2021. Hmmm isnt that odd. Nadal is a far more worthy contender for the title of GOAT then Federer.
Absolutely you are right, also Federer Chokerer was best in weak era of tennis, respect for a real fighter on the court like Nadal but there can be only one Goat and that will be Novak Djokovic this year or next 2 doesn't matter. IDEMOOOO BRE NOVAK 19 AND COUNTING. NEXT WIMBLEDON LET'S GO
I love Nole and i think he Is the GOAT. But we have to consider 2 things. The only player Who had not a weak era in his prime Is Nadal. Federer had the weak era on his peak. Nole Is not anymore in his prime but he Is pretty near and Is playing in another weak era. So i'm really impressed that Nadal while playing peaking between the other two goats had so much sucess. For now on It only depends on how well Nole Will Age, because this era Is weak as fuck
@@koklol2837 yeah, surely also Nadal has a weak era, but the fact Is that he Is way more out of his prime, due to injury and also because he peaked faster than Nole. Nadal at 18 years old won his First slam
@@dataranking8014 1 second ago I'm a big fan of Djokovic, but even if he wins a Grand Slam this year, he's still one less than Rod Laver, who did it twice in 1962 and 1969. Rod Laver (who turned pro in 1963) would have won several more Grand Slams had it not been for the rule that prevented professionals from playing in the 4 major open tournaments.
Everybody just keeps hating Roger Federer so viciously in this comment section. I don't really understand why. Djokovic and Federer respect each other, they kept joking together at the Laver Cup. In the stadiums, Federer seems so popular, but on UA-cam, he just keeps getting more and more hate. Why? And if Federer had broken Sampras' records so quickly, and Djokovic broke Federer's records, what if the next tennis great breaks all the Djokovic records?
Novak Djokovic the goat...2nd is Federer. 3rd Nadal 20 gs for nadal and fed # but Fed spent more weeks at number one And player of the decade 19 gs for novak and weeks at number one 327 And player of the decade No contest novak Djokovic is the deal
Marcelo Rios was number one for two periods. March and August 1998. He took it from Sampras, he got it back, then it was Rios again and finally Sampras took it again. In the video it only appears once in number 1. Anyway, wonderful video. Great job.
Nadal fan here. I already think Novak is GOAT. I can see Novak at the top another 3 years. Rafa is too injury prone and on the decline and at his age he can't play consistently to mix it up with Novak.
Vilas, Clerc, Nalbandian, Coria, Gaudio, Puerta, Cañas, Mónaco, Del Potro, Schwartzman, Mancini, Jaite, Squillari, Pérez Roldan, Chela, Calleri, Acasuso, Mayer, de la Peña, Davín, Frana, Zaballeta, Delbonis, Berlocq, Pella, Zeballos, etc. 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷💪🏻💪🏻🙌🏻 Argentina has 225 atp titles, only in men's singles (if I count women's singles, men's, women's and mixed doubles and non-ATP competitions such as challengers, Olympic, South American and Pan American medals, Davis Cup, atp cup, etc. the amount would be much more enormous) . Argentina is thus the fifth country in the world with the most tennis titles in men's singles only below the United States, Spain, Australia and Sweden...surpassing countries like France, Germany, Switzerland, Russia, Greece, Great Britain, Canada, Japan, Italy, Croatia, Serbia, Czech Republic, Chile, Brazil, etc. Undoubtedly a world power and the best in Latin America in this sport 🇦🇷
wow thiem is there in top 10 since 2016 and has not left yet and fact that rafa never left top 10 even after having so much injuries is still beyond me
Do you know who spent the most weeks as world No. 1? Find out on our video "Most Weeks at Tennis Nº 1 | ATP Ranking History (1973-2021)": ua-cam.com/video/eV644MOBEAU/v-deo.html
It’s very clear that Djokovic is the GOAT. He’s consistently dominated the last 10 years, with Nadal and Federer competing against him. Federer dominated 4 years most, at a time when the players weren’t so good (save for an up and coming Nadal).
-PLEASE. He lost the final Slam (USO) easily. -He lost the semi-finals (NOT the final, mind you) at the year end finals.

Tied with Nadal in Masters Titles (36), 1 Grand Slam title behind Federer and Nadal record (and I guess he will win Wimbledon), most weeks at nº1, etc... He really is the goat
@@dataranking8014 highly underrated player. His career was short-lived but while it lasted his tennis was outstanding. Who knows what he would have done.
About fedex He consistently beat subpar competition, often even struggling against some of it. He really did not have any truly impressive slam victories because he always got extremely lucky breaks along the way. Let's take a look: 2003 Wimbledon: Beat his pigeon one-dimensional server Roddick in the SF, then freak'n Philippoussis in the final. A headcase from a prior era who had never made it beyond the QF before. 2004 Australian Open: Beat his pigeon pusher-Hewitt in the 4th round, headcase Nalbandian in the QF, clay court specialist Ferrero in the semis, and an exhausted Safin in the final. 2004 Wimbledon: Again, the two notable players he beat were Roddick and Hewitt, guys who simply weren't that good. One a one-dimensional hard server with terrible net approaches, poor returns, and mediocre movement. The other a finesse passing shot specialist who couldn't hurt you if you didn't serve-and-volley. Sebastien Grosjean in the SF was not a particularly tough semi. And Roddick might have beaten him if not for the rain delay. 2004 US Open: Old, congenital back injury Agassi who couldn't move was his QF opponent, and he took Federer to 5 tough sets. Tim Henman was the SF opponent - past his prime and a limited serve-and-volley player whose best surface was grass, not HC. And then it's good 'ole Hewitt in the final. 2005 Wimbledon: Once again, it's Hewitt and Roddick. His QF opponent was Fernando Gonzalez, who was not very good on grass. And Hewitt and Roddick were weaker in 05 than they were before. 2005 US Open: Headcase Nalbandian in the QF, good 'ole Hewitt in decline in the SF, and old, horrible back Agassi, who couldn't move, in the final, scaring him early in the match before the back became too much. 2006 Australian Open: Easiest draw in slam history, and Federer had tons of trouble with marginal opponents. He should have lost at least 3 of the matches he won. First he had to go 5 with Tommy Haas. Then generic counterpunch baseliner with mediocre movement and a below average serve in Davydenko gave him all he could handle in the QF, having multiple set points to go up 2 sets to 1. Then journeyman Kiefer took a set off him in the SF, and then Baghdatis was up a set and a break, nearly 2 breaks, on Federer in the final. Marcos Baghdatis, who struggled to stay in the Top 100 in subsequent seasons. And the fact that Baghdatis was able to go through Roddick and Nalbandian (and Ljubicic) tells you everything you need to know about the strength of Roddick and Nalbandian as competitors. They got ousted by a marginal Top 100 player in a Grand Slam. 2006 Wimbledon: Another ridiculously weak draw. Jonas Bjorkman at age 34 in the semi-final. It doesn't get much weaker than that. And he was a serve-and-volley throwback in an era where the slow conditions mean they get eaten alive with passing shots. Then he played Nadal in only his 4th ever grass court tournament in the final, and nearly lost. Nadal was serving for the 2nd set and would have gone up 2 sets to 1 had he not choked. And the opening set bagel was clearly Nadal's nerves getting to him as well. Mario Ancic, his QF opponent, may have been a good grass court prospect if it were 10 years earlier. He was another guy playing in the wrong era for his game, making him fodder. 2006 US Open: After the easiest first 4 rounds a player has ever played in Grand Slam history, he went on to play zero-tactics ball basher James Blake, generic baseliner with no serve, limited power, and mediocre movement Davydenko, and his old buddy, Andy Roddick. 2007 Australian Open: He played no-weapons Tommy Robredo in the QF, his old buddy Roddick in the lopsided SF, and fluke Grand Slam finalist Gonzo in the final...and nearly lost the first set. He played baby Djokovic in the 4th round...a guy who was nowhere near what he would become. 2007 Wimbledon: Got a walkover on Tommy Haas in the 4th round, then lost a set to post-chicken pox Juan Carlos Ferrero in the QF, who was a journeyman at that point. Then he played freak'n Richard Gasquet in the semi-final. Then in the final it was a rematch with Nadal that he got extremely lucky to pull out, winning 2 tiebreak sets and losing 2 sets cleanly. Nadal was injured towards the end of the match. Without that, Nadal probably wins and ends the streak one year earlier. 2007 US Open: Lost a set to Feliciano Lopez in the 4th round. Played old buddy Roddick yet again in the QF, then generic no serve, mediocre movement, no power Davydenko in the SF again, then young, inexperienced, developing Djokovic in the final, who nearly won the match in straight sets but blew multiple set points in the first 2 sets. Djokovic had beaten him in Montreal a couple tournaments earlier. 2008 US Open: Had to go 5 to beat Igor Andreev, a clay court specialist. Then beat qualifier journeyman Gilles Muller in the QF, then Djokovic in the SF (maybe his only semi-impressive victory in a Grand Slam), and an exhausted Murray in his first ever Grand Slam final. Djokovic was a fairly impressive win, but he wasn't the player he became in 2011, and he was coming off getting many in the crowd against him after his dispute with Andy Roddick, whom he beat the round before. 2009 French Open: Lucky that Soderling upset Nadal. Had major problems with Acasuso, dropped a set to Mathieu, was down 2 sets and nearly got broken to allow Tommy Haas to serve for the match in round 4, then was down 2 sets to 1 to Juan Martin Del Potro in the SF. Won the final over rookie slam finalist Soderling, who had never beaten him before. 2009 Wimbledon: Played servebot Ivo Karlovic in the QF, freak'n Tommy Haas in the SF, and nearly lost to his old buddy Roddick in the final. A blown volley in the 2nd set likely cost Roddick the match. 2010 Australian Open: Had to basically cheat with a bathroom break to break Davydenko's momentum (and help clear the late sun rays) when he was getting streamrolled in the QF. Then played an exhausted Tsonga in the SF after Tsonga had upset Djokovic. Then played Murray in the final, who was still a headcase at the time, trying to win his first Grand Slam. 2012 Wimbledon: Djokovic in 2012 was not the same player after his grandfather died. He played weak Youzhny, who has never beaten him in an ATP match to this day, in the QF, completing one of the easiest first 5 matches ever played in a slam. Then in the final, he capitalized on Murray's nervousness trying to win his first slam and become the first British man in a long time to win Wimbledon. Along the way, Federer went down 2 sets to 0 to journeyman Benneteau in the 3rd round, coming mere points away from losing in the 4th set tiebreak. So when you really look at it, there are asterisks everywhere. Federer won 17 slams but it honestly feels like he should have won 0. ZERO. None. Not even kidding. It's surreal that he's been able to win this many. But the reality of tennis was he was competing over and over again against the likes of Roddick and Hewitt, as well as Nalbandian and Davydenko. If you don't think highly of those 4 players (and I don't), you're not going to think highly of Federer. He beat pre-prime Djokovic and Nadal, and he took advantage of Murray's early struggles with mental toughness. In actuality, Federer is the guy who wins slams when the others falter. He's not the guy who beats others at their best. Others beat him at their best when they're right. Safin in 05 AO. Nadal in 08 Wimbledon, 05-07 and 11 FOs, 09 AO, 12 AO, and 14 AO. Djokovic in 14 Wimbledon, 08 AO, 11 AO, 10 USO, and 11 USO, 12 FO. Murray in 13 AO
Federer is definitely is one of the GOATs but he came into Tennis at a perfect time when the older generation was falling off and retiring. He had tough opponents but it wasn't till 2007/08 that he was being challenged consistently. Would have been very interesting to see if all of the Big 3 were closer in age how things would have played out. Novak has been dominant since his 2011 run. He's been demolishing guys and has an incredible record against everyone in the top 10. Will definitely go down as the 🐐.
The 3 goats Djokovic is the greatest hard court player ever Federer is the greatest grass court player ever and Nadal is the greatest clay court player ever end of!!!!!
@@marcoflores2594 I don’t think novak will overtake Federer Wimbledon record. I think Sampras is real goat on grass because he won when grass was very slick and lower bouncing compared to when big 3 played on at Wimbledon
Injuries are as important as anything in sports, if you cant handle Injuries that means u did something wrong or your body couldnt stand pressure that you put in. I would say like this, if Nadal had better team around him, he prolly would be much consistent

In a couple of years this won’t look nearly as impressive as having surpassed Borg’s entire slam tally of 11 titles only starting from his return to form from grass court chunk of the 2018 season! And these 7 that he did win already aren’t just ANY 7 tournaments either! He basically completed a freaking career grand slam again ALL WHILE IN HIS 30’s!!! Lool He already repeated entire slam tally of all time tennis greats like McEnroe and Wilander and the best thing? It’s far from being over! Veeery far!…
Novak Goatovic 😉
🐐
Funny
Nadal is the only player that has been into the Top 10 since 2005, just incredible 👑
El Toro 🐂
And he was injured twice in between!
O único que nunca saiu do Top Ten desde 2005! Mais de 16 anos no Top Ten!!!!!! O único, junto com André Agassi a completar o "Golden Slam " ( ganhar todos os Grand Slam + o Ouro Olímpico). Para mim o maior de todos os tempos!!!!!
2 things come right to mind: 1) how much long Nadal has passed at number two; 2) Much respect to Murray. In this brutal era, won 3 majors, 2 olympic gold medals, 1 Davis Cup, 14 Masters and became No 1!
or maybe even more to Wawrinka. Unbelievable that he won 3 Slams on 3 different surfaces by having to beat these guys. If he had not played the best match of his life at 2015 RG, Novak would have then won a calendar slam. But he won the Grand Slam anyway, by holding the 4 in the same time.
Nadal has spent 370 weeks at no.2 which is the most in history, and is almost 50% of the entire time since he first broke the top 10 😅
@@drra2308 been a while since anybody won a calendar slam.
I'm guessing the next big 3- tsitsipas, thiem and Medvedev might win
That's one of the reasons it is so clear that the goat is Novak, then comes Nadal then comes Federer.
But respect them all! They are the biggest Legends of the game we love so much.
@@mirkom4599 I think feds may be better than Nadal cuz of versatility..I mean nadal has 13 RG of his 20 slams 😅.

Federer is my favourite BUT Nole is the GOAT
You don't get the W for being the favourite
-PLEASE. He lost the final Slam (USO) easily.
-He lost the semi-finals (NOT the final, mind you) at the year end finals. And the ATP still has him at #1?
-Only a rats ass would have him at #1 right now.
-He has won against others at slams and tournaments apart from The Other Two--one MUST consider the others' injuries.
-The ATP has kept him at #1 just to spite Roger and Nadal. When idiots say 'the ATP doesn't like Novak,' you are as mindless as stupid does.
Roger and Rafael are THE GOAT. But also Novak.
That 16950 by Djokovic is scary - holding 10/14 of the big tournaments at once! Same number as Rafa has won EVER (has not won WTF, Miami, Shanghai or Paris)
Unbelievable, isn't it?
Further more All 14 elite tour level tournaments won 2 times or more! 11 of 14 won 3 times or more; 9 of 14 won 4 times or more and finally 7 of 14 which is still half of all yearly elite events won 5 times or more!! Lol Nobody will ever match that all-court anomaly!
If someone is curious which are the 7 elite tournaments, that Novak won 5 times or more they re following:
1.Australian Open - 9 (Fingers crossed for double digits!)
2.Miami Open - 6 (tied with Agassi! Hope he surpasses him with 7!)
3.Indian Wells - 5 (joint with Federer! Again hope he surpasses him as well!)
4.Wimbledon - 5 (This most definitely moves up at least one or two more!!)
5.Rome - 5 (to me that’s enough…wish he didn’t lose so many finals though…)
6.Paris (Bercy) - 5 (imho more than enough!)
7.Year-End Championships - 5 (May or may not surpass Federer! 50% chance!)

After Djokovic showed up in 2008, the so called 'GOAT' Federer won 5 Grand Slam titles from 2008 - 2017. Then when Djokovic had elbow problems, during his recovery and comeback period (2017-2018) Federer wins another 3 Grand Slams . After Djokovic came back in 2018 to dominate again, Federer has no Grand Slam titles 2018 -2021. Hmmm isnt that odd. Nadal is a far more worthy contender for the title of GOAT then Federer.
Agreed, and as a friend said in the comments here "Djokovic and Nadal have much more challenges to win a slam compared to Roger"
Absolutely you are right, also Federer Chokerer was best in weak era of tennis, respect for a real fighter on the court like Nadal but there can be only one Goat and that will be Novak Djokovic this year or next 2 doesn't matter.
IDEMOOOO BRE NOVAK 19 AND COUNTING.
NEXT WIMBLEDON LET'S GO
I love Nole and i think he Is the GOAT. But we have to consider 2 things. The only player Who had not a weak era in his prime Is Nadal. Federer had the weak era on his peak. Nole Is not anymore in his prime but he Is pretty near and Is playing in another weak era. So i'm really impressed that Nadal while playing peaking between the other two goats had so much sucess. For now on It only depends on how well Nole Will Age, because this era Is weak as fuck
@@mence5992 If Novak played in a weak era for some period of time, then so did Nadal. They are almost the same age.
@@koklol2837 yeah, surely also Nadal has a weak era, but the fact Is that he Is way more out of his prime, due to injury and also because he peaked faster than Nole. Nadal at 18 years old won his First slam
Nadal and Fed are really good and i am croatian but i still think Novak its best of all time.
I think that if he wins the calendar slam there will no longer be space for this goat conversation

I'm a big fan of Djokovic, but even if he wins a Grand Slam this year, he's still one less than Rod Laver, who did it twice in 1962 and 1969. Rod Laver (who turned pro in 1963) would have won several more Grand Slams had it not been for the rule that prevented professionals from playing in the 4 major open tournaments.
Djokovic Greatest of all time. 👑🎾🏆🇷🇸
The 🐐
Rafa
Everybody just keeps hating Roger Federer so viciously in this comment section. I don't really understand why. Djokovic and Federer respect each other, they kept joking together at the Laver Cup. In the stadiums, Federer seems so popular, but on UA-cam, he just keeps getting more and more hate. Why?
And if Federer had broken Sampras' records so quickly, and Djokovic broke Federer's records, what if the next tennis great breaks all the Djokovic records?
In the Stadium i want see the beauty ästethic side of Tennis so good as it can, in youtube i want to See the GOAT...

@@dataranking8014 yes he can. I love your videos
Marcelo Rios was number one for two periods. March and August 1998. He took it from Sampras, he got it back, then it was Rios again and finally Sampras took it again. In the video it only appears once in number 1. Anyway, wonderful video. Great job.

About fedex
He consistently beat subpar competition, often even struggling against some of it. He really did not have any truly impressive slam victories because he always got extremely lucky breaks along the way. Let's take a look:
2003 Wimbledon: Beat his pigeon one-dimensional server Roddick in the SF, then freak'n Philippoussis in the final. A headcase from a prior era who had never made it beyond the QF before.
2004 Australian Open: Beat his pigeon pusher-Hewitt in the 4th round, headcase Nalbandian in the QF, clay court specialist Ferrero in the semis, and an exhausted Safin in the final.
2004 Wimbledon: Again, the two notable players he beat were Roddick and Hewitt, guys who simply weren't that good. One a one-dimensional hard server with terrible net approaches, poor returns, and mediocre movement. The other a finesse passing shot specialist who couldn't hurt you if you didn't serve-and-volley. Sebastien Grosjean in the SF was not a particularly tough semi. And Roddick might have beaten him if not for the rain delay.
2004 US Open: Old, congenital back injury Agassi who couldn't move was his QF opponent, and he took Federer to 5 tough sets. Tim Henman was the SF opponent - past his prime and a limited serve-and-volley player whose best surface was grass, not HC. And then it's good 'ole Hewitt in the final.
2005 Wimbledon: Once again, it's Hewitt and Roddick. His QF opponent was Fernando Gonzalez, who was not very good on grass. And Hewitt and Roddick were weaker in 05 than they were before.
2005 US Open: Headcase Nalbandian in the QF, good 'ole Hewitt in decline in the SF, and old, horrible back Agassi, who couldn't move, in the final, scaring him early in the match before the back became too much.
2006 Australian Open: Easiest draw in slam history, and Federer had tons of trouble with marginal opponents. He should have lost at least 3 of the matches he won. First he had to go 5 with Tommy Haas. Then generic counterpunch baseliner with mediocre movement and a below average serve in Davydenko gave him all he could handle in the QF, having multiple set points to go up 2 sets to 1. Then journeyman Kiefer took a set off him in the SF, and then Baghdatis was up a set and a break, nearly 2 breaks, on Federer in the final. Marcos Baghdatis, who struggled to stay in the Top 100 in subsequent seasons. And the fact that Baghdatis was able to go through Roddick and Nalbandian (and Ljubicic) tells you everything you need to know about the strength of Roddick and Nalbandian as competitors. They got ousted by a marginal Top 100 player in a Grand Slam.
2006 Wimbledon: Another ridiculously weak draw. Jonas Bjorkman at age 34 in the semi-final. It doesn't get much weaker than that. And he was a serve-and-volley throwback in an era where the slow conditions mean they get eaten alive with passing shots. Then he played Nadal in only his 4th ever grass court tournament in the final, and nearly lost. Nadal was serving for the 2nd set and would have gone up 2 sets to 1 had he not choked. And the opening set bagel was clearly Nadal's nerves getting to him as well. Mario Ancic, his QF opponent, may have been a good grass court prospect if it were 10 years earlier. He was another guy playing in the wrong era for his game, making him fodder.
2006 US Open: After the easiest first 4 rounds a player has ever played in Grand Slam history, he went on to play zero-tactics ball basher James Blake, generic baseliner with no serve, limited power, and mediocre movement Davydenko, and his old buddy, Andy Roddick.
2007 Australian Open: He played no-weapons Tommy Robredo in the QF, his old buddy Roddick in the lopsided SF, and fluke Grand Slam finalist Gonzo in the final...and nearly lost the first set. He played baby Djokovic in the 4th round...a guy who was nowhere near what he would become.
2007 Wimbledon: Got a walkover on Tommy Haas in the 4th round, then lost a set to post-chicken pox Juan Carlos Ferrero in the QF, who was a journeyman at that point. Then he played freak'n Richard Gasquet in the semi-final. Then in the final it was a rematch with Nadal that he got extremely lucky to pull out, winning 2 tiebreak sets and losing 2 sets cleanly. Nadal was injured towards the end of the match. Without that, Nadal probably wins and ends the streak one year earlier.
2007 US Open: Lost a set to Feliciano Lopez in the 4th round. Played old buddy Roddick yet again in the QF, then generic no serve, mediocre movement, no power Davydenko in the SF again, then young, inexperienced, developing Djokovic in the final, who nearly won the match in straight sets but blew multiple set points in the first 2 sets. Djokovic had beaten him in Montreal a couple tournaments earlier.
2008 US Open: Had to go 5 to beat Igor Andreev, a clay court specialist. Then beat qualifier journeyman Gilles Muller in the QF, then Djokovic in the SF (maybe his only semi-impressive victory in a Grand Slam), and an exhausted Murray in his first ever Grand Slam final. Djokovic was a fairly impressive win, but he wasn't the player he became in 2011, and he was coming off getting many in the crowd against him after his dispute with Andy Roddick, whom he beat the round before.
2009 French Open: Lucky that Soderling upset Nadal. Had major problems with Acasuso, dropped a set to Mathieu, was down 2 sets and nearly got broken to allow Tommy Haas to serve for the match in round 4, then was down 2 sets to 1 to Juan Martin Del Potro in the SF. Won the final over rookie slam finalist Soderling, who had never beaten him before.
2009 Wimbledon: Played servebot Ivo Karlovic in the QF, freak'n Tommy Haas in the SF, and nearly lost to his old buddy Roddick in the final. A blown volley in the 2nd set likely cost Roddick the match.
2010 Australian Open: Had to basically cheat with a bathroom break to break Davydenko's momentum (and help clear the late sun rays) when he was getting streamrolled in the QF. Then played an exhausted Tsonga in the SF after Tsonga had upset Djokovic. Then played Murray in the final, who was still a headcase at the time, trying to win his first Grand Slam.
2012 Wimbledon: Djokovic in 2012 was not the same player after his grandfather died. He played weak Youzhny, who has never beaten him in an ATP match to this day, in the QF, completing one of the easiest first 5 matches ever played in a slam. Then in the final, he capitalized on Murray's nervousness trying to win his first slam and become the first British man in a long time to win Wimbledon. Along the way, Federer went down 2 sets to 0 to journeyman Benneteau in the 3rd round, coming mere points away from losing in the 4th set tiebreak.
So when you really look at it, there are asterisks everywhere. Federer won 17 slams but it honestly feels like he should have won 0. ZERO. None. Not even kidding. It's surreal that he's been able to win this many. But the reality of tennis was he was competing over and over again against the likes of Roddick and Hewitt, as well as Nalbandian and Davydenko. If you don't think highly of those 4 players (and I don't), you're not going to think highly of Federer. He beat pre-prime Djokovic and Nadal, and he took advantage of Murray's early struggles with mental toughness.
In actuality, Federer is the guy who wins slams when the others falter. He's not the guy who beats others at their best. Others beat him at their best when they're right. Safin in 05 AO. Nadal in 08 Wimbledon, 05-07 and 11 FOs, 09 AO, 12 AO, and 14 AO. Djokovic in 14 Wimbledon, 08 AO, 11 AO, 10 USO, and 11 USO, 12 FO. Murray in 13 AO
😂😂😂😂
Federer is definitely is one of the GOATs but he came into Tennis at a perfect time when the older generation was falling off and retiring. He had tough opponents but it wasn't till 2007/08 that he was being challenged consistently. Would have been very interesting to see if all of the Big 3 were closer in age how things would have played out. Novak has been dominant since his 2011 run. He's been demolishing guys and has an incredible record against everyone in the top 10. Will definitely go down as the 🐐.
