  • Rodger Federer - the only man in tennis that suffers from wheel spin.

  • 3:20 until I could see Nadal win a point... though the score was 3 to 2. A bit biased, isn´t it?

  • @cutariechu Yeah, I often think things like that, but they are highlights, so it's not who won the point, but how interesting the point is. Maybe Federer hit a bunch of balls out until 3:20..

  • Nadal scared by Federer backhand in this match.

  • Federer is like Aragorn.

  • Thumbs up if you want Federer to win his SEVENTH World Tour Finals next year to overtake... himself? =D

  • @FederersL1ama No one cares about WTF, Id prefer he overtake himself in Grand Slam's as Nadal and Djok are looking to overtake him the rate they are going

  • @erkinchik Lawl.

  • @TennisAnnalyst He will win it

  • SAMPRAS AND AGASSI LOOK BETTER HITTING HARD! THESE GUYS LOOK OLD! NOT RAFA'S BEST AT ALL!

  • Whilst there may be an argument to be made that Nadal was still tired from the Murray match, he can't really have much of an excuse for tonight's result. I'm not having the stomach bug cop-out for one second.

  • @9891sasha

    even being tired after the SF match with murray isnt a good enough excuse

    federer defeated murray in easy straight sets

    nadal simply wasnt good enough to end the SF match earlier

    its a tournament, not a single match

    beating 1 player in the final isnt everything, its how you get there and perform in the final

  • hate to say it as a federer fan but a clearly tired and hurting nadal still managed to take off a set against roger indoors, im not to optimistic on his chances against rafa this year, considering he has declined even more then last year.

  • @hassan787 Nadal's stamina is a poor excuse.. Nadal didn't play since winning Tokyo a few months earlier while Federer was playing every single week prior to the World Tour Finals. Not to mention, these matches pale in comparison to Grand Slam ones.

    Either way, even if Nadal's stamina had much to do with that match, Federer had a slight lapse of concentration in that game where he got broken while Nadal had some great returns to shorten points. Federer still has a great chance this year.

  • @hassan787 Man you were spot on ! He had so much trouble destroying Nadal in every way this time. He played better this year than last year's final.

  • I'm just in love with federer (even with the fact that I'm a guy :P) but you can't hate Nadal, they are both gentlemens and very good friends, I like Rafa too, but I love roger :P

  • Hope Federer can repeat this feat of his again :) And renew the Roger Rafa rivalry :)

  • @TheFedererNadallover HE did repeat!!!! And he smashed Nadal 6-3, 6-0. It's the Return of the King!!!!!!

  • @SavagePersonified90 Yes!! Nadal got ROGERED!!!

  • @SavagePersonified90 Fed indoors is a hard match up for Nadal just like the reverse on clay. Nadal's groundies were landing short allowing Roger to attack. Same in 2011 indoor match.

  • Will i see Nole taking this trophy this year???!!!

  • FUCKING NADAL!!! WHOS IS BETTER??? WHO BEAT YOU???.. THE KING FEDERER!!!!!.. (oF COURSE)

  • Nadal dislike this video xD

  • Tennis courts are rectangular FFS. This is the worst view possible besides the high aerial view.

  • roger Hopefully will come out on top in 2011 so then he can have something to cheer about at the end of the year. he hasnt had a great year. BUT ROGER WILL ALWAYS BE THE GOAT AND I WILL BE PROUD TO BE HIS FAN WHEN HE RETIRES. :) Thumbs up if you Agree

  • Best backhand from Fed

  • nadal wearing a watch for matches...?

  • @kltl28 Allways :) ooh dear sponsors.

  • thumbs up if you think this federer is the best of all times

  • Great match from both players, too bad they don't make World Tour Final matches in best of 5 sets.

  • Fitting song for Nadal at the end, "Teach me, I know i'm not a hopeless case"

  • I loved how at this match Federer produced some stunning backhand winners! I felt like I was watching the Fed from 2005-2007 again! Unfortunately his backhand has been the weakest part of his game most lately.

    COME ON ROG, YOU STILL GOT IT MAN!

  • Federer - God mode ON.. PeRFect

  • okay I know there's nothing to do with the tennis if you listen carefully Coldplay's 'fix you' comes in at about 13:02. great match nonetheless.

  • @JonathanIppy good song? 

  • @ArjunJethwa great song. one of my favourites.

  • @JonathanIppy yeah for sure

  • federer in godmode

  • Better than all the rest...♪♪♪

  • The Swiss peRFection!

  • i just came to see the 2:05 backhand !! classy :p

  • @bassem008 check out the 5:07 backhand too! :)

  • federer is the best !!!!

  • now that's a moment of glory worth fighting for

  • !!!! federerمعلم أخاي

  • amazing tennis tnx 4 god that i live and see so good tennis

  • I think the red and gray color scheme is Roger's best colors.

  • Federers Rückhand kam einfach geil! 2:05 Früher Treffpunkt, einfach geil.. :)

  • i respect federer like no other player but i just can NOT stop laughing at 6:44.

  • you got to love the backhand in this vid, so 2007

  • And fed keeps teaching some skills to nadal

  • they should have had morgan freeman do the introduction...he makes anything sound more interesting

  • @Ralzaly yeah sure like the misteries of the universe.... comon man this is sport not science.....Pfff What a.....

  • @cristdinho it was a joke. its called a sense of humor

  • haha cheeky smile from nadal at the end, great match from Fed #1

  • When would Nadal ever win this one? Great and legendary tennis players have won this at least once.

  • @tennis2heart When hes retiring..... They would let him win it jajaja

  • You may think that some of Roger's impossible shots were accidents, but I think they were instincts.

  • yeah they are turning slower and slower...lame...players like nadal with just some speed and physical condition will rule and technical players will suck pffffffff

  • @r4v3n58 Scrub yourself u dont know anything about tennis....That´s for sure...

  • Federer put the God-mod on !!! then he is unstoppable !!!

  • Great match!

  • FINALLY some guy that pronounce correct RAFAEL NADAL

  • get someeeee!!!!

  • It always moves me whenever I see Roger win a major tournament, i'm always almost in tears, for some reason I'm happy seeing him win :) More power Roger! Hope to see you win another grand slam.

  • @tennis2heart same here.....hope he wins 2 more slams and shuts all those Rafa fans who think Rafa is the best ever when he's clearly not.....go Roger

  • That was orgasmic tennis :o

  • bRAVO QUELLE BELLE VICTOIRE

  • ROGER, there is no player who can beat you when you play this way.

  • Fuck this. Im the next Naderer

  • nobody beats federer <3

  • @Lehtinen1996

    Except of course for Nadal and Djokovic, who are doing it pretty often.

  • 2:23-2:53 best point!!!

  • what is the second song that starts at 0:42 ? pls tell me :D

  • @TheSupremeLeader1

    hahaha :D:D

  • @TheSupremeLeader1 its called suitcase calling by the polyphonic spree. i thought it was a good song too!

  • @TheSupremeLeader1 /watch?v=JbEtgc5DLOY :) If you go to the end of the clip you'll recognise it (around 7 min mark).

  • it'd be interesting to analyze the H2H between these two and see how many times the no.1 seed has and how many times no.2 has. With all of Nadal's victories against Fed, plus the fact that i think a few victories for Federer have come when he's been no.2, it'd be damning

  • This is Roger in his prime - UNSTOPABLE !! and can someone please tell me the 2 songs in the start of the video?

  • cool shirt from fed

  • Vintage Rog - threw a few surprises Nadal's way and played as well as he has for a good while. Some beautiful attacking tennis.

    @tacticalmarine: no doubt Djokovic has put down a marker for the season, but you have to understand that surface is everything. It was impossible for the attacking players to hit through the court this year at AO with the fuzzy balls and cool night conditions. Djokovic was able to run everything down....to be the Nadal of 2009 AO.

  • @tannoy123 I completely agree. I wish they'd stop slowing down the surfaces. Especially Wimbledon - it has lost a lot of it's tradition. Last year neither player serve volleyed once! What does that tell you?

  • Prime Fed in this match right here.

  • Right now Novak is the player to beat looks unbeatable!!!!

  • 0:25... i keep watching those 3 forehands over and over!! they go perfectly with the background music

  • nadal's movement clearly wasn't at its peak, but federer still did play great

  • Even if Federer had played like this against Djokovic in AO 2011, it would likely be a 5-set match easily. Even then I'm not sure who would win. I'm a fed fan but Djokovic was just on fire all the way through the 3 sets. It's one of the few times I believe Federer really was outplayed and not that Federer lost due to his own errors.

  • @tacticalmarine i disagree ..... u mean to say that when Fed was serving for the 2nd set .. Djok hit 4 clean winners? No .. it was Fed's unforced .

    And in the 3rd . i hardly saw Fed hit 5 winners . and make 'n' no. of UE of the BH .. !

    If it were 05-06 or maybe even 07 .. Fed would have reigned supreme !

  • @Jaishankar100

    Part of the reason why Fed was hitting so many unforced errors wasn't because he was playing bad, it's because rallies were so long and Djokovic in the end was more consistent than Federer in the big points. The reason why the rallies were so long was because Djokovic was defense was just too good. I watched the whole match and I'm not trying to bash Federer because I'm a fed fan, I'm just saying that Djokovic just brought out Federer's weak points now that he is getting older.

  • @tacticalmarine the weak points of old federer is lack of stamina and explosiveness which contribute to unforced errors and a rubbish backhand. One hand backhand is more fragile than anything when u age. I guess all this will happen to nadal soon. This match is like 24 yrs old nadal vs 24 yrs old federer when the backhand and serve is restored back. Federer will only turn 24 one tournament per year.

  • @youziness I agree with you except for the one tournament thing. In 2010 I'd say he was "24" as you say for both the Australian Open and this tournament. Unfortunately, in 2011, it seems as though he was 24 for a tournament already. Unfortunately, that tournament was Roland Garros and that 24 year-old, in-form, Djokovic-beating Roger ran into the greatest clay court player ever once again.

  • @dwilliams02 are u sure? A 24yo federer rallies aggressive and hard, moves well with <20 unforced errors. Djokovic was beaten by aces which shouldn't happen on clay or did he respect federer too much by calling his aces and clapping? I remember federer could hardly rally continously in RG 2011, only the serve worked throughout his draw. He was losing those rallies to djokovic too. It wasn't his 24yo form and nadal wasn't impressive either. Past RG finals they played much better. Videos r here.

  • @youziness Hmmm. Idk watching the semi match against Djokovic it seemed like he was rallying far better than I've seen him since this match. I mean like, maybe he wasn't at his absolute best, but just because he was losing some rallies to Djokovic doesn't mean that he wasn't playing very well. Novak is pretty sick this year. It's not always just about if Federer plays well or not, Djokovic and Nadal are both much tougher than anybody he had to face back in 2003-2005.

  • @dwilliams02 u could be right in 2003-2005. But it looks like federer backhand and rallies decline a lot, losing to people he didnt lose before. Him beating nadal at WTF and djokovic at RG convinced me thats the case. When the backhand worked he still beats everyone. Back then the bh worked more consistently allowing him to dominate. I am not convinced today djokovic and nadal going back to federer prime can stop him. Nadal was already there anyway.

  • @youziness True, but today's Nadal is a far more difficult match-up than the Nadal of 2005. Also, I'd have to disagree about the backhand. Federer himself has said that his backhand is better now than it was earlier in his career. I think after his quarter-final win against Monfils (Or maybe it was after a different match) at Roland Garros this year he said in a post-match interview that he "can't believe how good [his] backhand has gotten over the years."

  • @dwilliams02 u have to be kidding and didn't watch tennis if any aspect of his game is better than the past. Nowadays his bh cannot take more than 5 rallies. Nadal has only declined since 05-08, his running dropped but he is trying to be aggressive to cover up. You never know this could benefit federer in his prime when there are less retrieving and shorter points. Djokovic could punish him using his own game against him tells this. When nadal needing to ace or hit big he cannot come up with it.

  • @youziness I don't know man. His movement is definitely not as good as it was but seriously, look it up. Federer himself said in an interview recently that he thinks his backhand has gotten better. That's all I'm saying. Look it up. I just checked, it was after his win over Wawrinka in the fourth round. There you go. I do agree that his backhand in matches like against Blake in '06 was the best it's ever been. But Roger himself said it and I feel like he'd know better than anyone else.

  • @dwilliams02 he lost many weapons there cus of the poor movement n flexibility nowadays. Motivation is problem for the slack conditioning. I don't trust his interviews where he looked overly happy losing nowadays, guess its alright for not caring at 30. Back then the BH hits thru the court almost similar shot and power like FH which caused dilemma for his opponents. Throw in the big serve and strong mental game in big points(except nadal on clay).

  • @youziness And I just don't really agree that Nadal has declined since 05-08. He's learned to tone down his 100% effort on every point, but he still goes all-out in Grand Slams. The Nadal of 05-07 could have never dreamed of winning the U.S. Open. No chance. Consider that until the last year or so his serve topped out at like 110 and at the Open last year he clocked one in at 135. Just because Djokovic can beat him doesn't mean he's declining, it could just mean that Novak is rising.

  • @dwilliams02 so rafa/nole is better in ur opinion. Fed pioneered the modern all court example for the tour to follow. Pioneering gives most reward, so he deserved to be on top his era where there was another level of competition of players below him. Its the best way to beat the competition. Rafa/novak follows after fed, w/o him their game would not be so good. Today is possible to beat them by utilising all his weapons, age is more of issue for fed, both of them have yet to master more variety.

  • @dwilliams02 Oh Novak is most certainly rising. Agreed

  • @youziness How can u say the guy has declined when he last year won three slams and was in the WTF final?? before he couldnt even reach the US final and last year he won convincingly ! + he swept the clay court season and won the clay slam... better watch some more tennis mate !

  • @telmolicious watch more tennis ok? His footwork and fitness has declined. He still win dosen't mean he is still as good, only time is not up yet. Like federer wasn't good for most of 2007 but his time wasn't up. Somebody like Novak won't beat him at his own game if he was at his best fitness. This season he drop many more sets to nobodys.

  • @dwilliams02 yo watch this video watch?v=R3YHeL04r5I There is no more counter argument by nadal fans about his green wimbledon clay titles. 90s grass was even faster. Sure, he deserved to win it legit because all england club set the rules to slow down grass+heavier balls. I am sure federer wasn't expecting his serve can be returned easily in 2008 final contributing to 1st 2 set losses, whereas 06 07 nadal struggled to return. Although 07 wimby surface already looked slower than 06.

  • @youziness federer's serve was just as effective in the 2008 wimbledon final against nadal as the two previous years...just sayin

  • @youziness Yeah for sure. Nadal would've never won Wimbledon pre-2007 and would've never even made the final pre-2006. He said in a quote recently that Wimbledon these days plays like clay. That's just ridiculous. Add to that what you said about the heavier balls and it's easy to see that Wimbledon has most certainly changed for the worst. I think it's not so much that Nadal is an all-court player now as that the courts themselves have changed to suit him. It's a shame that they've changed.

  • @dwilliams02 Wimbledon has the same grass since 2002 youn idiot . It's just that Rafa was too strong for your hero . Nadal also has made and will keep making your hero cry like a bitch . Jealous and bitter fagderer fan always says that , maybe because Rafa pwns him 17-8 and 6-2 at the slam finals and don't forget the comedy match at RG 2008 , and after that you say he isn't an ' all court player ' .

  • @ibanezatleti Dude. Check your facts. Every one knows that Wimbledon's grass is different. Nadal may be too strong for Federer now, but at least don't make shit up. Also, stop being an ass. It's Rafa fans like you that make the rest look bad. Here's some advice, how about taking after your guy's lead a little bit and mirroring some of Nadal's humbleness and class. I didn't say Nadal wasn't an all-court player, I said that it wasn't "so much" that he is. There's a difference. Stop being an ass.

  • @dwilliams02 I understand your ignorance . Stop being a homo who lives in the US , it's due to your whore mom who gets fucked by Niggers and Mexican beaners .

  • @ibanezatleti lol I guess you'd know ignorance with comments like that.

  • @ibanezatleti I always forget that YouTube has invented this wonderful thing where I can block the assholes who do nothing but spew offensive slurs without even presenting an argument for their opinions. It's great to come on this website and get a nice self-esteem boost due to seeing the kind of trashy idiots that exist in the world. Fact: The grass is slower. Fact: Nadal does have Federer's number. Fact: You're a moron. Feel free to spew more hate speech at me, I won't see it! Woohoo! :-D

  • @dwilliams02 So stupid. Nadal? Got raped by Djokovic 5 times in a row. He is number 2. Never good as Federer. Everybody know that even Nadal...

  • @DuchDoby I agree that Nadal isn't as good of a player in terms of achievements and overall skill as Federer in his prime, but it's pretty undeniable that head-to-head, Rafa's got his number. His game just matches up perfectly, which is why I think their head-to-head is overexaggerated. Rafa's high-kicking lefty forehand is what hurts him against Djokovic/Davydenko and others with good 2-handed backhands because it tends to sit up sometimes. But against Roger and his single-hand, it's deadly.

  • @dwilliams02 Agree. I just hate rafa fans whitch says that Rafa is better player because H2H its so stupid.

  • @youziness yeah you say they became slower when Rafa started spanking your hero's butt . Fagderer played well enough to get to the final winning 6 matches and healthy as fuck with no sort of excuses , Nadal was injured in the 2007 final and still took fagderer to 5 sets , that was a big choke . Rafa's a nightmare for Fagderer on any surface

  • If only Federer had played like this against Djokovic at the AO in 2011...

  • What are the two songs at the begining?

  • @RogerFena12345 the first is by massive attack. The second is the last part of /watch?v=JbEtgc5DLOY. Suitcase calling. around the 7 min mark

  • Nadal's face: TAKE THAT BITCH!

  • Tennis will never die, despite Roger being the best.

    The game itself is so beautiful. And anyone who appreciates the game will always keep Tennis alive. Not everyone can be great, but sometimes it's great to just appreciate playing the game.

  • i believe that the biggest difference between roger and rafa is that when roger was world number one, players had to think twice before hitting a shot to roger federer..i mean federer was a genius, hard to beat and very consistent.. nadal is an amazing player but he is not consistent like roger was when he was the world number 1.

  • at the end of the day excuses or not he was tired,anyone could see that.plus this is no grand slam where rafa has beaten fed in their last 3 matches(all finals on all surfaces) and is 6-2 carrer.if they were to play in the australian open final i would back rafa 99% as he has raped fed in most of their matches and morew importantly mentally.this new aggressive fed is super but can he do it over 5 sets against rafa on a bouncy hard court in melbourne? i dont think he can

  • Play and the image quality are the super-highest!

  • @KonstantinNikolov really? I thought the Murray/Nadal match was JUST a bit better.

  • @ruaridh2k7 Only a bit?

  • i dont care how good Sampras was back in his day

    or how great Nadal will be in the future

    Tennis without Federer is not even worth watching, its the technique more than the winners that matter, the charm off court than the on court vamos's, the ease of movement rather than the knee-drilling slides, the multi-languages than the single language spoken in interviews, and more important, the role model than the robotic personalities

    Tennis dies the day Federer hangs his racquet

  • @foul01 I care. Nadal will always be better!

  • @foul01 Something is only the best until something better comes along.

  • @foul01 I agree - when Federer hangs up his racquet it will be a very dark day.

  • tennis is such an art when it gets to this level - especially played by roger

  • Two of my favorite songs at the ceremony - U2 beautiful day and Coldplay fix you!

  • AMAZING HIGHLIGHTS! WELL DONE FOR UPLOADING THIS MATCH!

  • Roger is the classic greatest ever. love Roger

  • @federerbestclass sampras the greatest

  • فيدرر سحق نادال المتغطرس

  • فيدرر البطل الوحيد نادال لايعجبني

  • the first minute was pretty cool

  • that's one hell of an ashtray

  • @The8arber You give him the tour finals? He earned it asshole.

  • @The8arber the last ball was in, in fact even inside the line

  • @The8arber What a sore loser. Federer was playing his best in the 3rd set so don't freaking say Nadal gave the game away.

  • @The8arber MAN ROGER IS THE BEST DON'T MAKE EXUSES ;)

  • @The8arber Silly boy :)

  • @The8arber so, federer said "Im gonna rape rafa today at the wtf because I miss doing that since I beat him at the wimby 2006, 2007, at the US Open, (oh wait, rafa didn t get to the finals at the us open right??? how's that if federer won that 5 times....HAHAHAHA YOU JUST GOT RAPED BY YOUR OWN ARGUMENT HERE!!!!

  • @ullorbrolly Why Nadal couldn't reach the finals of the US open? Well, he lost in the semis or in the quarters till 2010. I don't understand your argument ("how's that if federer won that 5 times"?? he never played Federer in the US open)... @alywen Well, actually, this was my desired result. :) ..... cunt. :))

  • @The8arber Hahahahaha! only a child would think that! Did you not get your desired result that night oh poor poor you and going back to the aussie open crying? nadal cried when he lost wimbledon 2007 what you gunan say about that then? ummm? Your going to reply with big swear words are you now mr cry baby boo hoo!

  • Roger's Backhand is BACK!

  • he was just great best match of the year federer is just awesome and untouchable noyhing else to say

  • Anyone knows the song playing at the beginning of the video?

  • Wow. Mark Petchey doing double work! Working as a commentator during the match and as a presenter for the awards ceremony, lol!

  • i know i'm going to get so much shit for this

    but when the commentator said "inspirational couple of points there...from the world no.2"

    my first reaction was "wait, i thought federer won the point? what did nadal do?"

  • @foul01

    Federer is the world no.2.

  • this match is the epitome of effortless tennis by federer

    the strokes are simply elegant

  • best match of the year btw really nice highlights!!!

  • @KonstantinNikolov Best match of the tournament was nadal v murray. I think nadal got tired from playing murray, it was a hell of a good match, rollercoaster from start to end. Then nadal has to do this the day after. I wanted federer to win but the last set was too one sided.

  • @KonstantinNikolov grand slams shouldnt rank that much higher than WTF.... not talking about points but prestige... everybodys talking about slams and masters... but something that really separates nadal and fed is the number of WTF won.... if u add them to Rogers masters tally he has 22 ... suck on that one Rafa!!

  • nice highlights :)
