The Swiss star pulled through a tough five-set battle against Frances Tiafoe in Round 1 and will be hoping for an easier contest this time around. Meanwhile, 2-time semifinalist Mikhail Youzhny is aiming to upset Federer and make the third round for his second consecutive year.

Люблю, обожаю Михаила Южного! Плакала, когда он объявил об окончании карьеры, что уходит из тенниса.

[@snoozezone3355]

Thank you so much!

[@Texmex0610]

2:25:25 worst overrule ever 😂

Not every five setter is a ‘classic’ or an ‘epic’ 🤦‍♂️

[@MedicalMomentsOfficial]

If Roger plays, it becomes epic .

Some 4 setters are actually better than some of the five setters

That umpress completely blew that overrule "out" call at 2:25:45 mark! Wasn't even marginal!

[@seytannavukat9205]

Federer coulda won this tournament if he was physically ready, seems like it got even worse round by round

[@TheRafaelBond]

what? He got much better as the rounds went on.

[@СергейПаглов]

Выложите уже весь турнир. Хотя бы за 2017 ну или другой год.

[@accretionescapee]

Yessss

[@jeffersonsilvaluciano7469]

waiting to see it

[@MrCWL]

I cannot imagine how badly Federer would have had to have played to let youzhny get this close

[@pettitlawncarelandscaping419]

Youzhny was a former top 10 player and 2 time US Open semifinalist. He was no slouch.

[@edkiely2712]

​@pettitlawncarelandscaping419 Exactly! Also, any player ranked in the top 50 can be a threat! Now, usually they have certain flaws, like a weak serve or backhand, which is why they're ranked where they are, however, they can still elevate their game on certain days where, if you're a top 10 player, and you're not bringing your own A-game- you will lose!

[@bullduzheriks6265]

Federer 👌

[@volodymyrnekhoda7017]

Южный в определенном смысле боец но скорее командный и его уровень никогда не дотягивал до уровня Федерера даже близко так что поражение было предопределено заранее

[@volodymyrnekhoda7017]

По ходу игры складывалось впечатление что Федереру просто скучно играть с Южным что сказывалось на невынужденных ошибках

[@magnetism693]

USO = Clay court in disguise.. Federer kept his 17-0 h2h vs Youzhny.

[@wallacegrommet9343]

What a stinker! Likes watching a senior league match😆

[@agasycedano2471]

Yessssss

[@tennisandogs]

why federer didn't manage to win the USO since 2008.

[@sapio0o]

I guess it has a lot to do with Rafa not winning AO since 2009. You don't win them all unless you are Djokovic.

[@Jordothecat98]

Because Novak is stronger mentally than roger. End of story

[@felixy23]

Because slow surface, it slowing down. Progressing each year. Looks like clay hardcourts to me

[@sapio0o]

@@felixy23 You can't slide on hard like on clay. No matter if it's as slow, hard is different than clay.

[@魚-c3d]

@@sapio0o but Rafa and Roger have won USO more than djokovic.

classic? Lolol

Definitely not a “classic”
