[@scottwarren4998]

he is not the goat though, sad to say, but hes the 3rd best in the whole history. Rafa is #1 atm with 22 slams and Djoko is #2 with 21 slams.

[@pdcdesign9632]

@@scottwarren4998 Yes, Fed is not as good as those two. Nadal was consistently beating Roger during Fed's prime so that males Rafa an even bigger legend. Djoker beat Fed at Wimbledon on 3 different finals. So who's better on grass?

[@germanslice]

On the backhand Roger hits the ball flat with power. He does use his finish to spin the ball but he uses the racquet's edge to generate all of that pace and that finish combined with the racquet's edge generates the spin and precision on the ball so he can aim anywhere in the court. He likes to flatten out the ball. I just recently made the change to using more of the racquet edge to allow me drive flat with pace so there's no trouble with generating flat pace when using the racquet's edge. So I'm just waiting for all the spin to return back after making the change to switching from hitting from the middle of the racquet to using more of the racquet's edge.... But what I like about Roger's Backhand is that he just always goes for the shot using that inside edge. He is vicious with that Flare Finish on the ball.. You been on the receiving end of his pronation drives. These balls are different to the normal player drives..Efffortless power and pace coming off the ball. He can slice the ball just inches over the netcord with pronation to also surprise his opponents. What you call the saber slice. And its because its using the racquet's edge for pronation thats why it slices the ball so flat and low and nasty like that. I do that type of slice as well and it allows you to skim the ball inches over the net. but not as good as Roger can do it.... Or he can use the high flat slice backhand off your serve as a return to just flatten your serve all out and that makes him dangerous. He just draws the racquet back and pushes it all out into the ball and unfolds the racquet and hes hitting the ball using the racquet's edge,... There's no big excessive swinging with him.

[@scottwarren4998]

@@pdcdesign9632 Also, Djokovic leads like 12-6 vs federer in slam-matches just like nadal, check the facts. Yes, and djokovic did better vs nadal than federer did vs nadal, in fact much better.

I can't imagine, federer is so nice outside the court and in interviews, but man he is brutal in the court. He is not holding anything back, not even a smile. He is ripping those shots full force for a clean kill and it was just practice LoL . He is totally expressionless whether he is making errors or winners. I also read a few articles back in 2009 or something that some players said they become frightened mid match just by seeing the focus radiating from his eyes. He hunts the ball like a Tiger, a smallest opportunity and he kills it instantly. He is expressionless, you can't tell whether you made a dent in him even if you break his serve or win the set, he never shows dissappointment or anger or excitement till the match is over. I think that's so Classy, he's like Batman of tennis.

He's almost scary in a way, I mean you're obviously a very talented player yourself, you'd probably mop up the court with someone like me, but maaaaaan, Roger is just something different.

"Greatest player in terms of ability and skill to ever hold a tennis racquet" - well said. Not many people know that Federer won his first 17 majors with an outdated tennis racquet from the the 1980/90's era. His racquet was essentially the same Wilson racquet as his idol Sampras and Edberg but with a different paint job as noted by Jim Courier who used the same racquet. That racquet was undersized, underpowered and had a small sweet spot compared to large, powerful and ultra light "wide body" racquets used by Nadal, Novak and the majority of the top 10 players of his era.

[@stephanesurprenant60]

He was insane. Now, imagine what it would have been like if this was 25 year old Federer... People forget how damn hard he was hitting during that 5 years stretch he spent at the no 1 spot, but if you watch footage from that period you routinely see him hit insane angles out of nowhere and push people like 10-12 feer behind the baseline. At 25, he gets to that ball a fraction of second earlier and he takes a way bigger cuts. He used to stand further away, to stay in that rally and it was just too much for almost everyone on the tour. Just watch him hit court level back when the USO had that green surface and Roger had his pony tail. He wasn't playing the same game back then.

Wow!!! I stumbled upon this video and it's absolutely amazing. I've loved this game since I was 13. It's similar to chess. Stephan Edberg hitting the balls on the other side blew my mind. Make more of this. 👍👍

Man I wish someday I could hit with Roger Federer.

Wow, you are hitting with Federer and with Edberg on your team. I used to love the way Edberg played growing up, watching his epic battles with Becker etc.. And Federer, absolute legend ! But also to say that you are brilliant yourself, to be giving as good as you got vs the legend himself, awesome!!
