Wimbledon 2009 men's final: Roger Federer vs. Andy Roddick 2nd set tie-breaker

[BrotherTree1]

damn it guys leave it alone. that volley is harder than it looks, and that hook forehand by fed to recover had so more liquid whip and nasty forespin on it. even blocking it back forward would have probably made it land long, or in the hitting range of federer. and a small tap dropshot would have pushed it wide as well. lets see you peeps in the general population, other than maybe federer, nadal and other freak tennis players out there, complete that point perfectly at that crucial moment.

[HortenseMueller]

Completely different perspective than on tv...thanks for sharing!

[modeste88]

A Volley that would haunt Roddick 4ever

[MrIanGardner]

damn roddicks serve is huge

[majestytd]

Nice camara, but that lady head is in the damn way.. Why didn't you tell her to move her big head??? jk......

[gargarensi]

jeesh Roddick man, this camera view makes that volley look even more routine

He didn't even have to do that much with the volley to win that rally anyways.

[danzilla97]

I think it was funny when I saw that sign, it said come on Andy Murray, but the day before he got knocked out, so the person who wrote it crossed out the Murray and put Roddick. Whoever done that, if you're reading this please reply! I find it funny! XD

[Crosby4hyg]

nice quality

[kusta345]

the backhand volley.... he will remember that all his life...

[tvp900]

We'll call it: So Close, But So Far

[TVBabolat]

Good to have a nice camera, Good work.

[kusta345]

i love this view!

[CJoMin]

I almost feel like Roddick got robbed. But I'm still a fan of Roger. So I'm glad Roger won. I just feel so... bad... for Roddick. Just that volley... Damn... That sucks. It's better to just lose than to get so close to winning and have it slip away right before you. So much more painful... Much love to both. Go Federer!

[AtCw593]

I feel the same way. I 'm glad fed won, I'm a fed fan. But the fact that it happened in this manner... ugh! I definitely have sympathy for Andy. I wish fed could have taken this from Nadal instead.

[m0squit0fac3]

@CJoMin well Roger Federer should feel it too..Del Potro vs. Federer...hawkeye took one grandslam away..

[Garro2]

We can never know what may have happened had Roddick won that 2nd set, the 3rd and 4th could have been very different.

[mariomarcano]

Had Federer lost that 2nd set, he´d definitely have lost the match in 4 sets! Nothing would have been different... he was going to win the 3rd set in a tiebreak... and then to be thrashed in the 4th set...and it would have been the end...

[maddymud]

question -- if Roddick wins the tie-break, does he win it all?

[rrpisti22]

exactly..

[khesim]

yeah

[Sasuke338901]

no it would not

[Ch3lseaFTW]

thanks for the vid, and its true, the volley will haunt him for his entire life, no way federer would come back from 2 sets down, glad he won though hehe

[mrcriollitas]

Thank you Daga for posting this vid. it was wonderful to see these few points from a different angle, as in real time. Doesnt everyone out there get a little emotional to see it as "within reach"?

Great camera though.

I cant stop thinking about those seats you got. thanks for sharing

[PettMB]

Love the HD.

[LaynezWorld]

The volley that roddick missed will haunt him forever. Nice vid though.

[liights]

i wish i was you and great video

[MrRippy99]

Great video! It's nice to get a different perspective on the match, rather than just the TV camera angle.

I was so nervous watching that tiebreak though. I wanted Federer to win the match, but thought Roddick was going to lead 2 sets to 0.
