Federer made Hewitt look like a junior player in this match.
@NevxrBackDown6 жыл бұрын
I mean Hewitt dominated Federer at the start of their rivalry winning 7 of their first 8 encounters but as time passed & Hewitt aged (plus his hip surgery in 2006 which he was never the same after) & Federer entered his prime, Federer dominated winning 16 of their 18 last encounters. Hewitt when he was younger was like Nadal, just pure athleticism plus he had great shot selection, the best lob in the world & an uncanny ability to return serves + shots. There's a reason why he's the worlds youngest #1 player.

hewitt well past his prime here. once fed improved his athleticism it was game over for hewitt. thats all he had over him and by 2010 he was well past it due to injuries. also his serve cost him alot. would have had more success if he had a decent serve. the flat ball of hewitt is perfect for federers strike range.

End of an Era. Thank you Maéstro, a.k.a. Roger Federer for all the memories. It was an honour witnessing your grace, elegance, flamboyance. There will never be another athlete, another Champion, another #Legend like you. You are simply the very best!🙏🏻🏆❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ You made us all fall in love with this sport. You made us believe that no matter how hard life knocks us down, we must never give up and keep Believeing. It was a privilege watching you, right from my childhood days,almost 2 decades ago till now. You are an icon in not only tennis, but also the Sporting Universe as a whole. We all realise what you had to go through the past 3 years with 3 back to back arthroscopic surgeries on the knee. The only thing I am happy about now is that you will be relieved of the physical stress that a tennis athlete has to endure in order to play at the highest level. Needless to say that it breaks my heart to even imagine that you will never be seen again in the ATP Circuit after next week. 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔Tennis will never be the same again without you, Rog! This is the saddest day of Tennis till now. 🙏🏻💔 You revolutionized the sport in astronomical proportions Roger. Your Legacy shall live on forever. 🙏🏻❤️ Tennis will never be the same again without you. 🙏🏻💔 Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❣️❤ 2017... What a dream year it was!! 🙏🏻❤️ Now only the memories remain for us to cherish. Here are some of the feats achieved by Roger Federer. 1. Record 237 Consecutive weeks as World Number 1(from February 2004 to July 2008) and a total of 310 weeks as World #1. 2. Record 65 consecutive Grass Court wins from 2003 to 2008 3. Record 19 ATP Titles on grass. 3. Record 5 consecutive Wimbledon Titles(2003-2007), a record shared with Bjon Borg. 4. 20 Grand Slam Titles, the 3rd Highest after Rafa Nadal(22) and Novak Djokovic (21). 5. Record 8 Wimbledon Titles. 6. 6 Australian Open Titles, the 2nd highest after Novak Djokovic(9). 7. Record 5 US Open Titles, shared with Pete Sampras and Jimmy Connors 8. 1 Roland Garros Title, where he had lost 4 of those Finals against Rafa Nadal, the winner of 14 Roland Garros Titles and is yet to lose a Roland Garros Final. 9. Record 23 Consecutive Grand Slam semi final appearances from 2005 Roland Garros to 2010 Australian Open, which also features a record 10 consecutive Grand Slam Finals from 2005 Wimbledon to 2007 US Open, followed by yet another 8 consecutive Grand Slam Finals from 2008 Roland Garros to 2010 Australian Open. 10. Record 369 Grand Slam match wins from 429 matches(86% wins), including 105 wins and 14 losses at Wimbledon(88%), 102 wins and 15 losses at Australian Open(87%), 89 wins and 14 losses at US Open(86%), 73 wins and 17 losses at Roland Garros(81%). 11.103 ATP Titles including 1251 ATP match wins out of 1500 matches, only 2nd to Connors's 107 ATP Titles and 1274 match wins. 12. Oldest ever World Number 1 in 2018( 36 years, 10 months). 13. Recovered to win from a 2 sets to 0 deficit on 10 occassions. Rafa has done that 4 tines and Novak 7 times. 14. Olympics Gold Medalist(doubles) with Stan Wawrinka at the 2008 Beijing Olymlics and Olympics Silver Medalist(singles) at the 2012 London Olympics. 15. Davis Cup Champion( 2014). 16. 0 match retirements. Needless to say that the Legacy of this Great Man is beyond any numbers. He revolutionized the sport in astronomical levels with his fluid style of play, that made this Challenging sport seem like a walk in the park. He is in every sense THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. He now leaves behind an INFINITE LEGACY, and a void that can never ever be fulfilled. The Legacy built on a foundation of a combination of God-gifted talent, hard work, dedication and enormous sacrifice. Thank you Roger Federer for everything you gave to the Sport, thank you for the sheer joy, encouragement, motivation, belief that you gave us over the years. There will never ever be another Champion like you. 💯❣️❤️

He won a few masters titles and such. He has a better resume, IMO than a lot of the top 10. How many of them from Murray, Ferrer, Tsonga, Berdych etc have won a slam? Or won a Master Cup Title twice? He has nothing to be ashamed of, and I hope he can walk away with his head held high.

I will admit Hewitt has gone past his peak but some of the plays, point construction and skill displayed by Federer is unparalleled. Just hear the commentators, you will not hear them using the same word for Nadal or Djoker or Murray or any other player and that's because most of them played professional tennis and know how hard it is to pull these kinds of shots off, let alone make them look easy. Hardly anyone apart from Federer has the skill to construct the points. Dull, Djoker and Murray use either brute force for winners or wait for errors from opponents. Fans like us only watch videos and yes quite a few of us may even have played tennis but not at the same level so take it from experts when they say it was incredible or unbelievable or "how does he do that" or "That is not possible"...

Fans of Nadal, Djoker and Murray will mention their records etc. But think about it this way. Ask the question to yourself. When you play any sport let alone Tennis, wouldn't you enjoy the win more if you did it in style or with great piece of skill as opposed to winning it ugly? Yes winning is winning but every player knows that there is extra enjoyment when you hit winners with skill instead of just blast the ball. Not only Federer puts a great entertainment on for the spectators, he himself enjoys the tennis the way he plays. There is difference between playing because you have hunger to win and playing because you enjoy it very much. This is where Federer is on a level of his own above everyone else irrespective of if he will be considered GOAT. How many people can say "I enjoy watching Nadal or Djoker or Murray" as opposed to "I enjoy watching Federer play"?
@MrHappyNappy9 жыл бұрын
Yup! That's why Roger is the most skillful player, effortless and classy! Nadal has a unique power based technique though, but requires lots of physical muscle power! And running speed too! Djokovic uses his speed in running! There's a lot more to it such as agility, athleticism, stamina, anticipation, timing..etc.. But ones mentioned before are their main weapons!
@skyseeker97359 жыл бұрын
You think hitting the ball over 4000 rpm doesn't take skill? Djokovic, murray and nadal have skills as well as athleticism in their game. You casual fans don't understand the skills you need to produce what these guys can do. If it doesn't take skill then how come you guys can do it? Plus entertainment and enjoyment for different players is an opinion. Some people like you like to watch federer doin ballad dancing and some ppl prefer watching djokovic, nadal and murray play.
@DhavalBrahmbhatt26279 жыл бұрын
Well, if you talk about skills, the only skill Nadal has is the ability to hit ball at 4000 rpms on clay and I am in awe of Nadal for that, no question. Athleticism is not skill and Federer is as good an athlete as any one else on tour except Nadal who over does it. Let's see if either of Nadal, Djokovic and Murray reaches 1000 tour wins. Compared to Federer, Nadal, Murray and Djokovik do nothing but ball bashing. Its well known in tennis world and you hear it from tennis experts time and again. Talking about skills, there is no one more skilful than Federer, again a fact that is well documented and agreed by tennis experts and not just you or me. I was merely saying that when you watch a tennis player play, everything comes to gather on court and it is a lot better with Federer than anyone else.
@skyseeker97359 жыл бұрын
Dhaval Brahmbhatt Well in terms of skill, borg and sampras are very skilful especially borg. Borg was able to dominant wimbledon and french open at 2 different surfaces. You really lack any tennis knowledge, djokovic, murray and nadal can not ball bashers, a ball basher is like berdych. Those 3 are counterpunchers but have the ability to hit winners from anywhere on the court, great footwork and the ability to defend. Novak and murray have one of the best backhands of all time while nadal's forehand is one of the best in history along with federer. Yes, federer is more skilled than those 3 but it doesn't mean those 3 aren't skilled at all. If you're saying their style doesn't take any skill then how come you can't do it? then how come nadal, djoker and murray are able to finish in the top 5 so consistently for many years? Tennis experts doesn't mean jack shit, it's their opinion just like everyone else. Agassi and McEnroe said nadal is greater than federer so does that mean they are right? I don't believe nadal is better than federer even though I'm not a ''tennis expert''.

Hewitt's slow groundies making Federer look good here. Federer had all the time he needed and when he has time, you're done. Every shot, even stretching out wide, is just another opportunity for Federer to hit a winner. In war they talk about the fire control computer for the big guns ... Fed is always effortlessly calculating and he fires the perfect shot, seemingly every time in this match. His skills are so solid that he has an option for a winner no matter the scenario. Just abundant shots on call from flick of the wrist backhand to crushing forehand down the line to drop shot to putting it behind the other player or just out of his reach. So locked in. Hewitt just left him with too much time to execute. And 9.5 years later Federer's reaction time isn't quite as good. This kind of display probably isn't in the cards--plus, the other players are better now.

the courts were so much faster back in the days. Its a shame that all are about the same right now, except for indoors. even wimbledon seems like like roland garros.

i feel like if i played Federer i would be swearing and cursing after every other point " Yo what the fuck?!?!!" " Are you fucking shiting me?!?!?"

Federer did play very well during that FO match but I do think quicker courts will help him beat his top competitors.

@3timeMVPNash I actually think Nadal is a pressure player. Hewitt is a defensive baseline player.

Hewitt had too little aggression to have been competitive in this game, 3:33 was the best example. If Hewitt didn't even hit down the line with that weak ball from Roger, he could only count on Roger's unforced errors, which didn't happen as often back then, especially against players one or tow tiers below, like Hewitt.

This Federer just vanished. Today it's a shackle of him. Still haunting the Top players but nonetheless not as sublime as he used to be

Hewitt was just N1 in 2001 and 2002 because Guga was injured, that's a fact

Hewitt played well, but he had almost no power. He needs to whack the ball a bit more.

the aussie commentator made sure that, despite the one-sided nature of the match, hewitt always looked in it.
