I’ve been watching tennis since Borg was starting out and I have never seen a match with such power behind every shot. Despite the occasional insane Roger drop shot (including one on a service return) they both were hitting incredibly hard and deep. What separated Federer from Blake was his ability to place the shots exactly where he wanted them, regardless of how powerfully hit, and his total and complete mastery of the geometry of a tennis court. Roger is GOAT imho, no question.

Hi Stewart, I have been watching tennis since Sampras era, Sampras, Federer, Nadal & Djokovic all had / have their dominance years however the brand of tennis Roger has played has never been seen before. During his years of dominance he would simply toy & embarrass the opponent irrespective how good he is playing. His style of all court, attacking yet beautiful to eyes game is the reason he would always be fan favorite irrespective of the stats.

I think that was part of the problem for Blake. The harder and flatter you hit, the better Federer likes it. He can deflect back all the pace and use it against you. The players Federer struggles against tend to be people who can really grind him down and make him work. Great retrievers who can get the ball up high on federer's backhand, push him back with topspin and blunt his game.

@@zeddeka Federer is one of the best players ever when it comes to injecting pace. What he struggles with is not when his opponents don't give him pace, what he struggles with is: A) Having his forehand side attacked with sharp angles (since 2012,2013) B) High bouncing top spin balls to his backhand. Not because they don't have pace, but because he has to hit them above his waist, which is very awkward for him. C) Opponents who can neutralize his slice Nadal did A, B and C. Djokovic did A and C.

Sadly, I think Blake's game really played into Federer's hands. Federer loves hard, flat hitting. He can deflect all the power back at his opponents. The people who really tend to bother him are those who don't try and overpower him, as Blake did here, but who "blunt" his game. That means getting the ball up high with topspin, pushing Federer back and making him struggle to generate his own pace, being able to scramble and run everything down, and basically grind Federer down. It's a shame for both Blake and Roddick that they didn't have those dimensions to their games. It was brute force from them and it tended to play right into Federer's hands.

Like a lot of people, I had no idea who Roger was when Agassi played him in the final, and when Roger went “beast mode” on Agassi to win the match, I was glued to every match Roger played. He may not hold the records anymore…but, he’ll always be the GOAT to me. I’d rather watch Federer lose, than the “other” guys win. Nothing against Novak, and Rafa…they’re just not anywhere NEARLY as exciting to watch play. Although, as of late, I’ve been cheering on Novak, because I’m fed-up with watching the sh!t he’s been forced to take. But, I digress…

@@rishimanda2191 That's not what you do when you're in the heat of a battle. Blake thought Federer would think, "He just won the set, but he's more concerned about me. What a great guy" And then get all soft. If you look at Federer, you can see he was a little annoyed by that, being that he was walking, obviously not in pain. I could see if he got up, was wincing in pain, and had a limp. But Federer was doing none of that. Blake tried the fake, overly concerned move, but Fed wasn't buying it.

The difference here seemed to be backhands- Blake hit a heavy topspin ball but despite that didn't get the offensive short angles or ability to flatten it out for winners as Federer did. Taking so many shots inside out meant he had to cover a lot of ground and that's a risky proposition against Federer with superb control from both sides.

One of the reasons for Federer's slight decline after 2007 is the progressive loss of effectiveness of his forehand, which has become much more loaded with topspin, slower and less offensive. Furthermore, he began to use the inside-out forehand less and less, a shot with which he won many rallies in his best years.

You need real talent and skill to win on fast courts. On slow ones like today's courts, it's more a case of testing one's patience rather than skill and these tend to favour muscle game sloggers like nadal and djoker. I bet none of them can even match 20% of the level of tennis that Fed produced on those fast courts back in the day.

Like watching a caveman play chess with a Superior Being. Blake's flexibility, movement, and overestimation of his athleticism always seemed an impediment to me. It seemed like I looked away for a second, turned back around and he was already doing Seniors stuff... with the same sleeveless tops.
