Can't imagine our tennis World will be, without Roger Federer.

[@theresidetective1646]

yes sir. he is the most iconic tennis player perhaps ever. great character too for being so filthy rich and not sleeping around and making videos of beds filled with 100 dollar bills lol. role model 4sure.

[@leejaymarsh9021]

I know tennis will never be the same again when Federer retires . I get a feeling roger will players for ever. Nothing against the other players they are world class, but roger is out of this world the king and greatest tennis player ever xx

[@DrMrPersonGuy]

@Film Extra Djocovid only turned around their h2h when Federer hit his mid 30s, before that Federer had an 18-9 record against him. Djocovid is extremely lucky to play now when the younger players are weak, Federer is old, and the whole sport has been slowed and homogenized for baseliners.

[@Steve-fb6cs]

@@DrMrPersonGuy we are already witnessing what happens to Djocovid when young players find a good form in their rare days while Federer dealt with in form Nadal and Djokovic for major part of his career.

The man we didn't deserve, but the one we needed. What a human! Thank you Roger!

[@RaphaelPraymore]

The thing about Roger is, yeah he is the greatest tennis player ever (20 grand slams), but what is really inspiring to me, is the way he plays. No one looks as elegant and aesthetic on the court. Its one thing to be great, but its another thing to do it in a way of art. This is truly special.

03:25 I hope Kyrgios watches Roger's comment 'I don't think I wanted to be a wasted talent'

[@stacyaugust8241]

I remember after Roger beat Kyrgios at the Miami Open in 2017 a reporter at the press conference asked him if he'd spoken to Kyrgios about getting his shite together and Roger said he didn't think it was his place to do that, that if Nick wanted help or advice it was up to him to ask. Clearly Kyrgios doesn't care about wasting his talent as long as he's making enough money being mediocre. And even then I'm not sure money would sway him that much. He is, first and foremost, a hypocrite who says he hates tennis yet continues to play. No one is forcing him to be a tennis player. It's way past time for Kyrgios to shite or get off the pot.

[@wahn10]

Roger is, and always will be, the most beloved and admired tennis player in the history of the sport. We're blessed that he 'became' what he is today.

[@nelsonc6173]

The Greatest tennis player in my opinion. I've never seen a player move like, or make shots like him...as great as Nadal and Joker are, Fed is a pure dream to watch each and every time. His body and mind were created for tennis.

[@polatburakcan]

It’s just great content. It shows that Roger Federer is not just great tennis player, also great role model for whole world. You can always learn something from him. Maybe someone will surpass him in numbers one day but what he brought to this sport and us will never be forgotten. We’re lucky to have such a sportsman in our era.

[@hilmieki]

That is the reason he has to get the most grand slams. So stays as a role model to the next generations. The new generations need someone like Federer. Not Djokovic.

He is not only the GOAT regarding tennis but also regarding defining himself as a brand.

The greatest thing about Roger Federer is he's a nice guy and has stayed true to himself and his upbringing who just happens to be the greatest tennis player of all time. You really can't say that about a lot of superstars. People who've known him for 20-30 years always say he's exactly the same guy he's always been. Leaving aside his great talents and achievement the credit goes to his parents for raising a good person.

I started following your game when I was still as a teenager, and now as an adult I still watch your tennis, it's incredible. I admire you and your calmness during a tennis match, you are special. I look forward to your return, be healthy, be strong.

I think it is a bit too late for Nick. Not everybody can do the sacrifices top players did

[@Reuben_95]

@@taopaille-paille4992 the thing is with nick is he’s got so much talent and because he hasn’t been training properly he’s not going to be burnt out already. He’s still young and if he puts in the required effort I think he could win a few slams and make no 1. But wether he wants to put that effort in, and he’s been honest about that, is up to him.

[@taopaille-paille4992]

@@Reuben_95 That's the positive way to look at things. But if you look historically not ever a player had come to work hard and succeed late in his career. And in fact Wawrinka is not a counter example to this since he has always worked very hard since his teenage years, as he always says. The fact that he got success late is due to many factors that do not contradict the fact that Kyrgios will probably continue to have a decent career but will never make it to the top (unfortunately)

[@Reuben_95]

@@taopaille-paille4992 I know what you mean. Although there is a first for everything. I think nick has that kind of talent. When he’s up for it He can beat anyone, the skill and talent is there. It’s just the discipline and extra fitness, mental toughness to get through 7 best of five matches. Which he openly admitted at Wimbledon he just doesn’t have that yet, he hasn’t put in those hard yards of training.

@@thayumanavanlakshmikanthan5350 Nadal has won GS in each surface at least two times, while Roger and Djokovic have only won once on clay, therefore Rafa is more complete. And Nadal-Federer head to head is 24-16, who cares about the last matches? We need to count all of them

He'd go on to reach 7 GS finals in a row immediately after that, beating Novak multiple times in the meantime): -Where do you think Federer ranks in the elite history of the game? -He certainly belongs there. -2018: Federer still wins Grand Slams and reaches No1 in the world once more. -2021 (after two knee surgeries): "I'm looking forward to competing again with the greats of the game and have currently no plan to retire."

[@aftabkhan1961]

Few people transcend their chosen profession. In sport, IMO there are four global sporting icons that have done that; Ali, Pele, Maradona and Federer. Ali stands head and shoulders above all the others due to what he had to undergo living in an apartheid system and being in such a brutal sport. However, like Ali, Feds also has a mercurial personality and a unique level of eloquence about him which endears him to so many. I'm sure we'll see much more of him even after he hangs up his racquet.
