@adrenilenepotato hewitt and roddick, safin was in top 3 for a reason. Put Djokovic or Nadal on 2004-2005 courts with lighter balls they won't dominate like today. Wimbledon is certainly out for them.

@adrenilenepotato What? His forehand and backhand were less dependable here? On what planet are you on? This is Federer at his very best. His backhand and forehand were never more dependable from 2004-2007.
The court looks so beautiful in all green but now, like the surfaces, look all the same.

his forehand and backhand look more powerful,but they are a lot less dependable,great match from fed but hewitt at his best will get crushed by the top 4

Fed is the man, wish he still had the PONYTAIL!

@SubtleNirvana i was thinking the same thing

2004 Roger vs 2011 Roger - WWW

I felt courts are much faster in this video compared to the courts of US open since 2008.Am i the only one who thinks this way?

@harlito90 no so you got to say also de Edberg of 91´or the Sampras of 90´ or the McEnroe of 84´ . The level of greatness achieved here by Federer is unparalled in the history of tennis

His strokes does seem more powerful but the Federer now has much more versatility and experience. It's more fun to see Roger play now then before with all his tweeners and amazing shots. Not to mention the haircut and apparel is far more appealing.
Federer looks like a more consistent player here. I know this is 7 years ago. Can't expect a player to keep up this pace for that long.
His backhands are more powerful and aggressive now that I look at it.
its the circle of life my friends
Sampras had his Agassi
Federer has his Nadal
Nadal has his Djokavic
Djovo is going to be number 1 soon. I am a die hard Federer and tennis fan.

2004 is the year where roger came out hitting hard, not smashing racquets and mentally strong. Nobody would have thought hewitt will be replaced by federer whom he had losing h2h with. Thats very huge transformation out of nowhere, similar to djokovic today.
