Federer was really the Rolls Royce of tennis. Everything he does, from serve till the winner he looks like a hawk gliding smoothly yet extremely swiftly towards its prey. You could argue that Rafa has a better reach or that Djoker is more aggressive but no one brings the class to the court which he had. The elegance that he possessed is unmatched.

[@fuzziepandas]

Djoker is NOT more aggressive. Federer was the most aggressive of this generation. But he made it look effortless which didn't make it look aggressive. Look how early he takes the ball. Djoker is so much further back, almost a pusher.

[@felixyatin8086]

He fought against top backhand players and still won in several rallys. James Blake, Gasquet, Wawrinka, etc. His backhand is the best, drop shot, volley, overhead smash, ball precision, strength, pure artistry, beautiful to watch. He's the complete package for goat category.

[@Hypocrisy.Allergic]

He literally got owned by prime Nadal because Nadal played on Rogers backhand which is one the worst in the top 20😂. Dafuq is wrong With people nowadays. Can t u see the obvious? Rogers backhand is his worst shot. Drop shots yes he is good. Forehand very good. Voleys superb. Serve very good. Backhand garbage. Straight up Nadal made a career because of it

[@ferguson7128]

It amazes me that over the last few years on some quite important occasions his backhand hasn´t been the problem, but his forehand has.

[@frenchfryegr6898]

Ferguson they have to swing ridiculously hard to put enough spin on the ball to keep it in at this pace. As Federer ages,he’s just losing a little bit of that control, but that’s all it takes for the ball to go way long by they swing so hard

[@DjokovicIsOurLordAndSaviour]

@@frenchfryegr6898 That's just as true on his backhand though. If anything it's more physically taxing on your backhand.

[@hymansahak181]

Ferguson I agree. Everybody talks about the two championship points at Wimbledon Federer squandered but he later had a break point with a very easy sitting forehand to break Novak again and serve for the match. He messed it up. That angered me more than the two championship points.

[@VinodKumar-wo3tx]

Federer makes subtle changes in his grip whenever he needs to switch between forehands and backhands. Lately, because he is slowing down, he hasnt been getting enough time to change grip when going for his forehands. Thats why he has been hitting out often with his forehands.

[@srinitaaigaura]

@@VinodKumar-wo3tx That and I think Fed's forehand is too dependent on his footwork. In his prime he used to be one step ahead of the ball all the time. Now a days he's often late. And he does struggle with deep low balls. But honestly he hits too many errors on the forehand now. It's an eyesore.

[@Jonathan-mp3ju]

The one. The man. The GOAT!

[@JiraiyaSama86]

Perhaps the reason why his backhand seems more resilient than many other one handers is both its versatility and adaptability. Aside from the variety of shots he hits with it, look at how many of these were abbreviated backhands. So many other one handers seem to just try to power through, and don’t put enough emphasis on placement. It’s probably why I prefer Federer’s one hander over all the other one handers. In terms of competitive versatility, his, in my opinion, is currently the best.

Novak even lucked out this year again at the AO by a choking Thiem and taking MTO's again breaking his opponents rhythm (remember AO against Murray 2015) 😂

[@nawshercse98]

It does not matter, even if you are big fan of Nadal or Novak, but one handed backhand is one of most graceful to watch. Nadal or Novak probably has strong backhand but you cannot compare their backhand winner with one hander graceful one handed backhand winner like Federer, Gasquet, Stan.

[@theacechip]

I feel hat these backhand shots are a result of years of continuous practice of not just the stroke, but the penetration, variety of angles, covering all corners of the court. Fed is one player who has used almost the entire opponents court in his shot making. Most other players rarely go for the lines and angles, even someone like Djokovic doesnt do it very often. Most are content with speed and spin and the occasional volley/drop shot.

[@luvsk8r]

[@dewman7477]

There's a misconception that Federer backhand was bad. Not on low bouncing courts. Federer main issue in his career was the high bouncing backhand he faced when playing Nadal high topspin forehand. When Federer fixes that (off clay), it's hard for anyone to beat him. 2017 Federer was short lived with that backhand on the rise for only three tournaments at AO, IW, Miami, and Shanghai. He has shown flashes of that backhand in his peak but couldn't maintain it his whole career. That's why he struggled on clay and high bouncing courts on hard courts because of this.

[@fabricedurand3831]

Le meilleur sportif de tous les temps pour moi, une légende ce Roger

[@10slover62]

What is absolutely key to Fed's success on his backhand (as well as his forehand) is the way he can hit balls on the rise, right off (or in front of) the baseline. It takes time away from his opponents and does not allow them to "cheat" to one side or the other. That is why many of his opponents state that Fed is the most difficult to play against. They often say that he "constantly pressures you, all the time." No one else in the world can consistently hit balls (and winners!) on the rise like Fed can. No one. His timing and strength are simply incredible.

[@georgeofthejungle6095]

[@davidevaschetto4938]

Roger is the genius but wawrinka is the best one handed backhand and nole the best two handed backhand

[@aleksandarkurcic9811]

I completly agree!

[@gabrielvergarasanmartin5233]

It depends on the environment though. Wawrinka has a huge swing that doesn't work particularly well on fast conditions and low bouncing surfaces, while Federer can just take the ball early and hit it better, impact cleanly. Djokovic backhand is the best anywhere.

[@edlockley2420]
