"Whether or not he [Djokovic] has the potential to do what Federer's done, nobody's quite sure" 🤯
By the end of his career, Djokovic will have done BETTER. He's coming closer and closer. I can't wait for the glorious day when both Nole and Rafa will overtake Federer, forever.
@@krafthund Keep dreaming. 20>17, 6>5
krafthund
Keep sleeping ‘coz once you wake up, your dream will be shattered.
I think what Federer has done so far, in this late stages of his career, is quite incredible: winning slams or reaching slam finals (he came SO close to winning Wimbledon last year) at 35-36 and further is special. In my opinion, it's not given that Djokovic can sustain, in the next two or three years, the high level at which he nowadays plays...we will see.
@@krafthund Cry serbtard
Djokovic was able to save 3 match points in this match, he already showed his intentions for the future
@@tanmayagnihotri2999 chutiye har jagah novak ko gali de raha.teri aukaat kya hai saale djokovic ke saamne. free ka net mil gaya hai bas.gali dena sabko ata udd mat zyada!
I counted 3. One on Djoko serve and then 2 on Fed serve
He saved 3. Pay attention.
@@Nicotine46 yup corrected it, thanks
Exactly ! Insane ! The head of Federer at the end : shit, this one will fucked me up soon too !
Noticeable fact : Djokovic in this tournament the only player took a set from Federer before reaching final against Nadal .. No one from clay spechialists did that who are older than him
I can see that the crowd treated Novak much better when he was a lower ranked player than when he is number 1 today
Because he behaved correctly.
@@Wawruto is by behaving correctly means being docile ,subservient and diffidence then am so glad Novak corrected that part quickly
@@Wawrutohe always behaved correctly, reason he received hate is because he said he wanted the number 1 spot and answered in US crowd to Roddick that said previously that Djokovic was always injured etc, then when Djokovic answered to that in front of the US crowd they started to boo him and media made Djokovic look like a bad guy then he never was, if by behaving bad you mean breaking racquet or being kicked of Australia then they told him he was allowed to go and had a valid Visa, then it's up to you, he always showed respect and cares for the other, see how Shapovalov Zverev Leconte Medvedev Wawrinka Murray peak about him, did Nadal or Federer gave a fuck about Peng Shuai when she disappeared ? No, only Novak gave a shit, who gave a shit about helping the lower ranked on the tour ? Djokovic, while Nadal and Federer especially were against giving them more money, but it's okay, find your own informations on what Novak has done for the tour instead of just focusing on Federer's elegance and Nadal always hiding everywhere
@@Wawrutofuck that
He didn't pile up as much crap yet 😂
Djokovic showed his mental toughness and class right at that age....didn’t get bothered that he was playing the world number 1 and goes on to take a set off Federer!
Djokovic at 18, nothing less than phenomenal.
A problem was that nadal wasn’t much older, and was so unique for his age, that at the time Djokovic and Murray didn’t so incredible. Looking back ofcourse they were also unique
I'm a Roger fan and I hadn't seen this match before. Seeing Novak here, there's no doubt about what a player he has become today. Thank you for the highlights.
Yes its clear for every one Novak is goat
@@novakgoatovicno one will ever be on Federers level.
@@novakgoatovicYou just have to shove those comments up our ass at any time right? Stfu for once nobody started a GOAT convo here. Novak fans have been unbareable for years now and it is sad for Novak because people can not like him as much as they should because you guys.
@@chiragsood4668there are 2 thats better than him, yes
@@NamTran-xc2ipWell in terms of GS, yes. But I highly doubt Rafa's claim to second best
This is called HardwOrk, commitment,passion. In 2006 he was No one, no ranking. Within few years, in 2011 No1.. 🙏🙏🙏
Watching Federer walking out at the start, I couldn't help but think he has absolutely no idea how many times this man is going to break his heart. Novak looks super confident though, like he is in his element, with zero nerves facing the world number one and with a strong belief that he will become world number one someday.
The amount of times djokovic has saved match points against Federer! INSANE
2006 was Fed's best year. Amazing how Djokovic took Fed to 3 sets on this match. Also shows how physically strong 18 yo Djokovic was. This was a great match.
Nah… 2017 was Fed’s Best.
@@jaassilbecause Novak was injured
@@athletes6724 So I can argu that all the years that Roger was injured, Djoko did not play well?
I call this the fan fallacy.
@@jaassil Federer last beat Djokovic in a slam in 2012, 5 years before 2017, 10 years before he retired.
@@athletes6724he played the whole season. I don't think it would have mattered anyway. Even 2019 version of Roger overplayed Nole in Wimbledon. Only prime or near Peak Djokovic could have defeated 2017 Federer.
Notice how gracious Novak is at the net even after he loses. He's the best "loser" out of the big3, always congradulate his opponent with a smile.
Yes, but the worst loser when the match is still on.
@Quentin1163 he does it so that he doesn't release pent up rage by disrespecting the opponent. Which both Nadal and Fed have done a few times each
@@Wawrutogo hate somewhere else you punk
@@Wawruto Federer was a notorious sore loser. Nadal rarely used compliment the guy who beats him without mentioning something about the weather conditions, his foot, etc.

Thinking that way too. I was wondering what SCG is instead of being SRB
@@crrisliu1463 It was state union between two republics until Montenegro decided to leave in 2006. This match was in april and Montenegro left the Union just a month later on 21th of May.
What this shows, and thanks for sharing btw, is that Nole already had the shots as an 18 yo, to hang with the best, but the physicality of the game meant that over time against the top players, he would eventually fade... I find Rogers’s reaction at the end of the match quite telling; he already knew this was a worthy challenger who would be tough to beat in the years ahead
I am a rare fan who loves both of these guys. Of course, was a huge Fed fan early. Then Djoker. I am always conflicted who to root for when they play big matches like Wimbledon finals. But I have to say, Djokovic has always been more respectful to Roger than Roger has to Novak. You can see it in the handshakes still.....
God, I really hope you're not rare in appreciating good players, whoever they are!
Roger always had quite arrogance about him. But I find it an endearing quality. Big 3 are still great when compared to the hubris of football
@@sakshamsanwaria7486 his worst quality and its coming from a die hard fan. I get to be salty at those match points or to be salty against maybe some player that bad mouthed you etc, but Novak was always good towards Fed, and at 18 he deserved better handshake
For almost a decade and a half, the rivalry between Roger Federer vs Novak Djokovic has been taking the sport of tennis to another level. The ‘Fedkovic’ battles have left numerous tennis fans spellbound. It is believed that Roger has one of the most versatile forehands and shot making in the history of the sport also his serves are equally admirable.
Novak doesn’t possess any of those but his exceptional command over the return of serves, his elasticity and his unprecedented defense on the tennis court neutralizes Federer’s high-quality attacking style tennis. Djokovic’s clean groundstrokes from both the wings certainly give a tough time to Federer to select his shots and smash a winner etc.
Roger Federer has been the platinum standard of tennis excellence for quite some time now. His movements and techniques are simply notches higher than the rest of ATP professionals. Still, that won't stop the Maestro from adding a new weapon to his arsenal.
To stay at the top of any sport, you have to try new things, push your limits, and always look to improve.
Novak is not the greatest of all time yet,but if you are young kid and want to have a solid playing style he is one of the best example to follow in order to develop an aggressive baseline game which is the dominant force in this era of tennis.
This 3 GOATS of tennis have taken this sport to another level.
Roger has better technique, on the other hand Novak has better strategy. Novak is beating Roger because he is smarter.
@@4lugan you may add consistency in the rallies also.
@@4lugan Smarter is not the good word in my opinion. Roger can mixt his game way more than Novak. It's more a question of game style in my opinion. Roger has to take more risks because he is inferior in baseline rallies due to his backhand consistency (in term of pace and shot depth) and we are in the era of strong baseliners. That's why Rafa and Novak have a strong h2h against roger but once again it is only my opinion :)
@@iBearD14 Federers first strike tennis is more risky and he makes more UE of course.
Thanks Tennis TV 😃!!!
We can see during the handshake that Roger was already mad whereas Novak even if he lost had the smile and people keep saying Federer is the most fair-play player on the tour....
He’s smiling in the thumbnail so how can u say he’s mad. Go hate somewhere else
I think he is kind of right, you can feel it. But Roger was arogant beast that time. I kind of like it. Big it's not a secret that Roger is not fun of Djokovic. And it's ok.
Djoko have always been more gracious in defeat than Roger…
@@martinsks.a8434101%. 👍👍👍
Stefan Edberg's behaviors were far better than the Big 3 members combined.

Wow he really did took a set out of the legend Roger in their very first meeting as a qualifier! And the crowd were very pro djokovic. Back then I would know I'd stan the right person. Also 18 year old Novak is damn handsome 😍

David Nalbandian of Argentina would have been on that list somewhere. His shoulder injury forced him to retire. He beat all of the big 3.
@@joey22306 nope
@@joey22306Best joke of the decade
Federer's face at the end of the match was like: "This kid is gonna cause me a whole lot of trouble in a near future... I better start winning as many slams as possible ASAP..."
Fast forward 2 years and Federer captured 5 Slams + 2 ATP Finals before Djoko stole the swiss his first Slam at AO 2008... the rest is history.
RF: Whats up with all those nephews??? First Rafa, now this guy...I better build some solid headstart!!!

Federer fans always complain when Djokovic beat Federer that Djokovic is 6 years younger than Federer.
They forget Federer has lots advantage before Djokovic become his prim time.
Djoker is player great here. Already a top 5 material
The last good generation of players, a lot of them prodigies. No social media, no show offs, nothing.
The likes of Nadal, Djokovic, Murray, Berdych, Wawrinka, Del Potro, Baghdatis, Gasquet, Cilic.
Look at Djokovic's hunger, his desire to win, kids from today can't even defeat a 38 yo Federer.
@eoe123321 Him, Tsitsipas and Zverev are the perfect example of the current generation of players.
Just spoiled brats with money or supported by media and people with it.
Spot on, tennis is in a worse state than ever before.
Bunch of overrated pricks.
But hey, nevermind as long as social media works.
The last decade has somewhat been like this. As social media started becoming more popular, players got relaxed and didnt care about the win like they used to. Weak era😔
@@ferguson7128 Dud cmon even today the young tennis players are insane, you should see the speed at which they hit the ball I bet u would not even win a point against them
@@aayushjhaveri1300 I´m not a pro so what´s your point?
Either they deliver push festivals or brainless ball bashing.
But they never deliver when it matters, they´re overrated.
People always say Federer had a weak era whereas Djokovic has it much easier now AND the ATP and ITF help him with the court conditions.
Federer looks so old even with 24 yrs.
Yeah but at 40 he still looks about the same lol
@@duncan3932 Nadal looks like Federer's dad's age now.
Federer won major slams during the period when his opponents were ageing Agassi, Sampras, Safin, Henmen, Davydenko and then similar aged players like Roddick.
He stopped winning rapidly once Nadal & Djokovic came in their prime.
Safin hewitt roddick where the same Generation as Federer and hé still dominatet while djokovic and nadal hit their prime After Federer turned 30.
Federer still won 8 slams after 2007 anyway and exited his prime or peak since 2014 (2013 was awful year so not counting that)
18yr old Novak to 24tr old Fed. 'Well played, good luck'. Feds response nothing. Than Novak gets to gets to be called arrogant? One excuse for Fed is that he surely felt that this guy will be beating him really soon.
Look His lose against Nadal in indian wells 2004, he was salty af, people forget how cocky and bratty Federer was in those years, Nadal, Djokovic, Murray, del potro and the next gen of that Time started to humbling him Big time
@@diegosotomiranda4107Federer still won a lot even after 2007 but yes he did face more competition until prime ended after 2012
Two different playing styles, but both amazing to watch...who would have guessed that Djokovic would go on to win 17 slams and possibly more? I don't think people even thought 20 slams was possible with Federer - the record of 14 slams held by Sampras felt untouchable at that point in time!
I am now reading your comment and Djokovic has already won 24 slams. That’s insane!!!
The signs were there. THis is prime Federer right? Young raw talent Djok nearly beat him. Fed would have crumbled if it went to 5-4 in the 3rd
Actually he didn't use to crumble during those times. It rarely used to happen
Imagine being today world no.1 with 24 years...
Djokovic was 24 too when he was number 1
Nadal was 22 as Number 1
@@HIMYMTR ok no one can be good at the start like rafa iam THE BIGGEST DJOKOVIC FAN but i mean even if nadal was no 1 at 22 that doesnt mean djoko is worse than rafa

Great effort from Novak, he played a very good match and took off a set against Fed who was at the prime of his prime!
I have been a Federer fanboy since childhood but you gotta admit - Novak's groundstrokes here itself is clearly more superior than Rogers'. Roger has more variety with the slice and superior net game but it was a weird feeling watching the highlights where it seemed like Roger was the one more likely to make a mistake.
Djokovics groundstrokes aren’t superior than Federers. Nowadays he has more margin because he has a better movement than Federer .
Novak is hitting higher risk less top spin shots here. If you see from court view, you will see how much more top spin Roger generates making returns more difficult. Also Roger was already beginning to develop his forehand into a loopier one like Nadal to beat him in the french open, which kinda hurt his game against everyone else.
Someone come get their nephew... God tennis fans can be so annoying
Beginning of the biggest rivalry of 2010-2020!! And what a great match too!

"What you can, I can do it better" - a silent resolute made in the GOAT Djoko's mind that day.
Well literally that's not the case. It's more of taking advantage of his core strengths. Both are on a player level are nearly same. Nole is better at handling things.
A treasure in the library of tennis tv!
I'm a huge Fed fan but in the end what we see is a humble Djokovic and a stuck up Roger :) I like Djoko, people give him too much hate just because he came between Rog and Rafa
Who says Roger is "stuck up?" I don't think any of them are. None of them like to lose but hey that's why they are where they are
How did you reach the conclusion that he is stuck up? Just because he doesn't utter a word at the net.
We really have to appreciate and respect what Federer , Nadal and Djokovic had done so far in their careers. IMHO i admire Djokovic more compared to Federer and Nadal, the way Djokovic has done against Federer and Nadal is extremely unbelievable. Here are some incredible stats.

Fed had said in an interview long ago that he did nothing against Agassi when they first met. Novak takes a set from Fed 6-2. Wow. It's so much fun watching their careers play out among the Big 3. 20-19-17 so far.

Back when players used to wear buggy t-shirts, Djokovic with Wilson racket and Fed actually efficient at converting match points against Djokovic.
Oh and not to mention Djokovic being actually not bad at the net.
Novak Đoković, The Greatest tennis player who ever played the game 🐐🐐🐐🌎🌎👑👑👑🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸🎾🎾🎾🎾❤️❤️❤️❤️
Main characteristics of their games:
Federer: The most agressive player in history! Always going forward and taking the ball really early, subsequently giving the opponent no steady time and and hitting a higher amount of winners than any other player. Just look at the statistics.
Djokovic: Although you can't see variation on his game or many winners, he's a player that is very consistent shot by shot, always trying to hit deeper balls in order to make life difficut for the opponent, mainly with the backhand, forcing him to make the mistake. Furthermore, he doesn't give up real easy, huh?!
Federer the most aggressive player in history? I guess you never watched a tennis match played before 2000.
@@MrPernell27 Of course he is! Every player that has faced Roger knows that he doesn't give you any steady time, mainly because he takes the ball real early and break the rhythm really fast. Even Agassi that is considered one of the most aggressive players, due to his similar style, has said that against Roger you can never know when he's gonna try to hit a winner because he's so unpredictable and can hit it from anywhere.

nice stats , thanks , many people forgot that Novak is six years younger. The best way to look at their achivments is like you do, compare their acomlishment by age.
They didn't play each other at the Australian Open 2010, Djokovic lost to Tsonga in the quarters. Maybe you mean Australian Open 2011
The thing is Djokovic is 6 years younger. Federer had to fight not only with his generation but against a prodigy like Nadal who was in his absolute physical prime since 2005, and the next generation who were also prodigies like Berdych, Gasquet, Murray, Djokovic, Del Potro.
Djokovic in his prime only had an old Federer and Nadal as contenders, while the next generation was crap.
@@travisbickle5279 oh, the matches Federer played against Novak until AO 2010 and Novak's matches against Roger until AO 2016. The way you wrote made it sound like a specific match between Novak and Roger in AO 2010, since they played in the 2016 AO it was confusing
@@masters.1000 Of course 😂 Gasquet or Berdych are a "prodigy", while Novak's opposers like Kyrgios, Tsitsipas or Thiem are shitty players. That's laughable. The one who won the biggest part of his GS against rubbish players is Federer, not Djokovic.
13:16 So this "thing" about Fed losing a match point when serving 40 - 15 started in their first ever meeting.
Well he lost one at 40-0 in this one as well. That doesn't mean anything. You don't always win a match on your first MP.
I really love watching Fedkovic matches... The time when I was watching the most tennis was when Nadal was out and all the finals were fought by Federer and Djokovic
Pasu Pathy he said nadal was out
I see. Their shotmaking is of the greatest quality. Not a pusher contest. 2014 to 2016 was Federer Djokovic rivalry ofcourse with Djoker in his prime
we want the full match in tennis tv!!!😍 PLZ!
Just 7 years ago in 1999 (when Federer was already playing pro level) Djokovic was fleeing for NATO bombs in Belgrade...
What a difference in childhood.
2 of the most incredible players we will ever have the privilege of witnessing...I am guessing Federer and Djokovic can win more than 20 slams each!
Look at Novak, He's not awestruck like most young players who faced Federer in those days, Nadal too. The next gen need to learn from that.
After this match Federer would not have imagined that he will be 0-3 in Wimbledon finals against this man

Should really be 2-1 up though. 4-4 in the final set in 2014 and he misses an easy smash into the net when he was going for the break and then of course he only won 1 other point afterwards.
Federer vs Djokovic age in theese Finals:
33 vs 27, 34 vs 28 and 38 vs 32...
Try to reverse the factors and you will get results in favor of Roger. It is already unbelievable that Federer had great chances of winning in 2 Finals out of the 3 played at Wimbledon against a champion like the serbian in the middle of his career.
Oh, people! Why all this hatred and fanatism on the comments by both sides of the aisle?! Appreciate the rivalry, because one day in the future we'll all want this to come back! If you like one more than the other, fine, but at the end of the day nobody really cares!
Only Nole's side of the aisle.
Nole had already then these special things which made him great champin in the future; also his rivalery with roger in this first match seems their most importante meetings (but this time nole had three matchballs to save, later only two:)
young Djokovic was so handsome
Not happy to see even in this match fed didn't converted his match points by taking risk or by attacking tennis he waited for Djokovic's error I guess that's where 40-15 hell started
He tried to win at the volley in Wim 19 !
@italkcrab complete lie, he was nowhere close to being tired as he continue to play another 5 games and entire tie break showing zero signs of cardio issues, the only player that looked tired was Novak
Simon Cowell federer did look tired. He is old asf, ofc he must have been tired.
@@devinotero1798 Did you see him run in that 12-12 TB?He wasnt tired.
Aleksa Milosevic just because someone fights for a point does not mean they are necessarily tired. When i play tennis i can be exhausted but still run miles. However it will affect the quality of shots and increase errors
Very underrated match in their rivalry
a very young novak takes off set from a primer a peak federer like here in dubai 2007 at the best of 3, he fights ver y well. not in GS AO 2007 and us open federer won comfotably in 3 straight sets
Roger was winning the head to head until around 2015.
Then novack was winning the head to head.
Now at 38 at the Nitto ATP finals in London. Federer won.

@@adeebkhan7498 Fed was injured at the AO though.
Don't think Roger will ever again beat Novak at the Grand Slam, (last time Wimbledon 2012) but at least he gave Đoković couple of painful defeats (Novak obviously made Roger suffer more over the years, especially in their 5 set thrillers at the US Open and Wimbledon)
@@Nicotine46 he didn't just lose at AO coz he was injured or old..he lost coz he was not the better player..that is also the same reason why he has not beaten novak in 5 set matches(slams) for the past 8 years.

1:01 that question is close to being answered...
After every match of Federer vs Djokovic some of their fans start making literally non sense excuses about their age like really!! It's not Rogers fault that he is older than Djokovic and neither Djokovic's that Federer is still not retired and playing at such a high level. Just love the rivalry between the two and stop giving these bullshit excuses who is better and who's not!!!
Federer is the best ever that's a fact!
You are not welcome among the brainless Noletards mate😞
Please don't fill the comment section with hatred towards any of big 3 members.

Yes his net game has remained inconsistent his entire career. Its sad. This and his overhead smash stop me from declaring him the outright GOAT
He just changed the tactics, reduced the amount of of volleys and smashes because he know the winning combination is from the baseline. I watched him in doubles and he is good volley player but smash is below the average.
@@QueArgh what about Federer Shaky bh? Specially in crucial points?
@@diegosotomiranda4107 Federer lol. He's not even in the equation.
Nadal Vs Djok.
I give it to Djok, but this year's French Open could settle it
18 year old Djokovic is better then all the current next gen players combined.
Haha, 20 year Novak definitely, 18 year old Novak was pretty green (even told at the Roland Garros 2006 that Rafa isn't so special and that he can beat Rafa there, well he had to wait for almost 10 years to do that)
@@gregorsamsa555 you may want look up for his actual quote because that's not what he said.
@@sergiosarmiento4371 "I could win today" sounds even better! And what Brad Gilbert said after that...
@@gregorsamsa555 he didn't say Rafa isn't so special, he said he is not unbeatable (which is true) but he even said he was the best.
What he said, with too much confidence I agree, was that he(Djokovic) can play against him like equals and has the potential to beat him.
@@sergiosarmiento4371 Of all things that he said then what stood most "I think I was in control" it just makes no sense. Was Novak in control in last year's Wimbledon final? Not at all, just like he wasn't in this match. But hell, he was barely 19, experience and wisdom comes with age... Novak is good, Novak is great, but damn, he had to wait to start beating Rafa and Roger in the biggest matches
Federer as early as 2004 ( here in 2006 ) has a weight in his shoulders to deliver week in and week out. He was already been tagged to be the GOAT this early. Not taking away from the other 2, but they dont have the expectation and pressure Federer had when he's on top back then. Roger did very well considering those circumstances, he could have won more if not for those mental burdens...
He could also have completed the calendar slam several times but he was denied by Nadal in RG or the golden slam in 2004, before Nadal reached the level of 2005 onwards that we all know.
Lol Freddy struggling against baby Novak
Same way Djokovic struggled against post prime 2014-2020 Federer
I don't think so it's struggle. He won comfortably
This Djoker has a negative h2h against Roddick
novak is always true sportsman in his wins and losses humble and kind, im a fed fan, good for him god granted him glory
Do you think Roger deserves that glory since he is very cocky?
@@sakshamsanwaria7486 Roger never cocky. Probably the best acted tennis player.
For the Novak fans who complain that Djokovic never gets crowd support, he was getting a good amount of crowd support before 2008 (when he went at Roddick at the US Open).
What did he do to Roddick? That he lost all crowd support?
Tired of hearing Djokovic fans whine about him not getting crowd support. Everything for them is a conspiracy against Novak.
Nah the Roddick incident hurt him but the Fedal retards when full butthurt after he started stealing their pie in 2011.
It has nothing to do with Roddick and everything to do with the Federer fans mad because Djokovic stole his thunder.
Yeah when the serbian was not yet a big threat for Federer/Djokovic in the GOAT debate. Things have started to change since 2011
back when the crowd supported Djokovic...
Yes, as he was losing, when he began to beat him more often, he was no longer so good.
@@bakimc4722 Also Novak when he started to beat Rafa (especially 2011) and Roger became very wild on court, cocky, later even started to have some words with fans while playing. So it's logical in some way why he is not so beloved...
@@gregorsamsa555 the only reason, it's because Djokovic's became a huge shadow for Nadal and Federer in the GOAT debate. It's nothing to do with his personality....just a fake pretext to hate the serbian champion.
Many fedtards fanboys are so salty toward Djokovic 🤦♂️
@@mickaellandry9726 people would have still supported him if it weren’t his parents with those remarks on his 2 rivals and now both of them have extremely toxic fan bases I see.
@@__jan6113The guy you replied to is one of them
This is pretty much prime federer, federer hit his peak at pretty close to age 23 I’d say, he could hit through anyone’s defence, even Novak’s.
A teenagers novak btw, and Still.gave him lot of trouble, the same Murray, they started to expose Federer baseline consistency specially on bh, and hitting deep, theres analysis how the next gen of that era commanded by Nadal and Murray/Djokovic started to beat and hice masdive trouble to Roger game by being More consistently deep in their baseline game, Federer was used to shorter baseline Rivals, even top players like agassi, Safin, hewitt It roddick, thats why for Federer was Easy to dictate the point against them, with this other 3 he needed longer rallies cause he didnt have Mich Time or space to dictate every moment, he has to run and use variety a lot More, look how less creative His game was between 2004-2006 compared to 2007-2012, before 2007 he only needed His serve, and His fh most of the times to end quickly, this new guys started tonreturn those winners and Federer had to improved His overall game and strategy to match their consistency
@@diegosotomiranda4107I am happy to see that he overcame the hurdle of Murray and Rafa eventually
You see Djokovic had nothing to loose there so he just went in
At that time,Djokovic is just Lajovic to audience
Federer never had a nice word for Djokovic at the net.
Win or lose.
Well he didn't have a nice word for anyone at the net. Also, here defeating Nole was just routine.
By the way this was the only match Federer lost set in the entire tournament before the final vs Nadal.And he played Ferrer and Gonzales.
Young Novak was much more aggressive.
Aggressive in behaviour too in young age
2006 to 2009, his tennis was more entertaining for sure. He went big
2011 was the most entertaining. His shot making was at its peak and his defense was as well. After that he became defensive
@@aranyaism yes 2011 was his last great aggressive year
@@Aman-nk5uqMaybe that's why he was at risk of getting defeated by Roger
Federer new he could feel it .....and wasnt happy about it .....and on top of that losing a set to qualifyer .
Every comment is littered with saying who’s the the best and who is number 1 and blah blah blah. Just comment on the match itself instead of thinking who is the true GOAT 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
Im a huge djoko fan but i greatly admire the exploits of federer.at age 24, he is the world number 1 and he has 37 titles under his name!i dont think any of the next gen ATP players can ever achieve that.well none of them at the moment....
Federer's FH in 2006 was a beast of a stroke.. He lost a lot of steam in the 2010s..
14:26 lucky kids......
Roger and the GOAT
Ele ia mais pra rede quando jovem, confiava nos voleios. Hoje em dia quase não se vê djoko na rede. Mas não faz falta. Djokovic o maior de todos!
Federer had no idea what was coming..
Nole was a beast even in his very young phase (18 years old here, born 22 May 1987), against prime Federer. Great match in three sets.
This match was already like a final for Nole. It was the 1st round against Federer, the finalist who lost 6-2, 6-7(2-7), 6-3, 7-6(7-5) VS Nadal (23 April 2006). (Thanks, Wikipedia.)
In 2013 Djoker defeated Nadal at Monte-Carlo in the final, score: 6-2, 7-6(7-1).
Two absolute legends for sure. Peak to peak, they gave us that 2011 RG match which outshone any match nadal ever had at that point
This is the greatest rivalry, shotmaking wise
Solution to win with Djokovic to Federer is when winning not let 40-15 in the last game. Unfortunately it cannot be utulized anymore cause Federer retired.
23 Grand Slams baby!!
Can’t see the tennis ball 🎾
Little did they know...
Djokovic's father hates Federer. He attacked him in some interview in 2006. The cold handshake of Federer is maybe a reaction to that
@0:25 foreshadowing and talking about Djokovic even though they were talking about Federer at the time
He never wins the point when he’s serving 40-15 match point against him 🙄
"Whether or not he [Djokovic] has the potential to do what Federer's done, nobody's quite sure" . ------------------------------------
At the time of the question Federer has amassed 7 Slams + 10 Masters + 2 WTF titles.
Djokovic will be 33 y.o. by the end of May and despite the Corona-quarantine that probably cost him a couple of titles and about ten more weeks at no1 between AO and RG, with his 17 slams + 9 slam finals and 56 big titles he is already the most successful player by that age:
Djokovic 17 GS + 9 GS finals + 11 semis, 5 WTF, 34 Masters, 5 y.e. no.1, 282_Weeks, Titles_79_(56 big titles)
33 y.o. Fedal:
Federer_ 17 GS + 8 GS finals + 10 semis, 6 WTF, 21 Masters, 5 y.e. no.1, 302_Weeks, Titles_79_(44 big titles)
Nadal____17 GS + 8 GS finals + 5 semis , 0 WTF, 34 Masters, 4 y.e. no.1, 196_Weeks, Titles_81_(51 big titles)
Federer prize money that cca 22, 000,000 $, Djokovic 323,000 $..then 14 year after Djokovic have 143,000,00$ and Federer 129,000,000 $. Not crucial but interesting fact for that 18 to Djokovic🎾🇷🇸👍
as a nadal fan, I love watching federer vs djokovic matches - great, top-tier level tennis, but no stress because my fav is not playing
Haha I can relate! As a fedfan it’s all just too painful watching his matches. Djoker Nadal matches are just fun as you can enjoy the brilliance of tennis
I agree. As a Djokovic fan, it somehow stresses me when he losses, which seems like an unhealthy mindset.
