I played a doubles with my wife once... we nearly divorced afterwords...
Lmao
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
You should have covered the court like Nadal or Murray, and never let the ball bounce twice. lol
ROFL 😭😭😭😭
Yes! 5:07
7:24 when Lleyton realised there are two games going on in the same court..
😂😂😂 yep
We’ve conquered all of Europeee
great comment.
Yeah!!!
Superb 😂😂
I don't think I've seen Federer all smiley and giggly after a losing a match. Aaah young love....🥰
Because he knew he would win something bigger than any match
@@viksinha5410 bro imagine they played mixed doubles together in da Basel club champs
Roger was so distracted playing with mirka hahaha. So adorable!
yes yes... ahhaha... very very young fella right.. it happen, also nervy too ...ahahha..
wat a guy he turned out to be huh..jus waw
Maybe he couldnt see the net?
Wouldn’t you, she is good looking?
Roger has never smiled this much in a tennis match... he's super relaxed; having too much fun and obviously very much enamoured by his future wife; and he can't concentrate ...interview: "Well done on a good effort today" LOL Roger was laughing that they lost, it's hilarious, this is the Federer no one ever sees in tourneys today. Big thanks for the upload WivoRN!
Lots of smiles on both sides. Wonderful to watch.
@MUFC what is soccer?
@MUFC soccer will stay most popular in the world overall but it definitely won't overtake the US, idk if you live here but not many people are crazy for soccer.
resulting t 2 pairs of twins to Federer,good looking couple and their 4 kids
The double take at 0:26.
It looks like the first date.. They played well,smile after every ball... Love is in the air
This will forever be known as the biggest win of Roger Federer's career
Her biggest win you mean. He's the one with the net worth of 100 mil plus
@@LizardCane why are you even bringing money up? They both won. Its obvious how much they love each other regardless of money
@@lauraabigail2427 Although it isn't obvious now is it, we don't really know their personal lives.. as well as we don't know how much of a factor money/status plays.
I bet it definitely does play a role and I'd also say this is Roger's biggest loss..
@@erikstigter7897 🤮🤮 regarding your comment
@@peterhammer4644 Yes, it is hard to use real words to communicate.
I don't know which fact unsettled you, as I'm confident you respect everyone right to one's own opinion.. and I've only stated fact and a personal opinion.
Let's just say that I'm not very impressed by your response.
Now I understand why Roger and Rafa get along so well. They both are extremely shy and fell in love with beautiful, humble, and nurturing women at young ages. That's very good luck!
In other words, beta males. LOL (vaccine queens)
shy people are the most down to earth people
7.22 to 7.31 Lleyton's reactions epic😂 he probably would have been the first persons to notice the romance between Mr.&Mrs. Federer❣️
Haha that is so nice, Roger should thank Hewitt for being there witnessing.
I noticed it too..
7:23 Why are they taking so long to serve?
7:28 Oh, I see why.
LoL😂😂
Never knew Mirka was a tennis player at one time. That would explain, why she loves to watch so much, and not so much as a fan, she seems pretty serious all the time. :)
me too
It's nice to see that she would give up on her career to help support her future husband's career a hundred percent. And also I read somewhere her decision to retire early was also that she suffered with multiple injuries very early on in her career and that's why her body gave up on her so instead she chose to travel with him and be by his side. That says a lot about her character as the unsaid force behind Roger.
@@AshutoshSingh-sp4jq Yeah, I was always impressed that she was always in the stands, watching with attention.
She is really good.
I saw Federer’s eHollywood story. I guess when they met he was hotheaded and it was her who got him on the straight and narrow so to speak.
7:28 lleyton realised the opponents are going to be married.. His smile 😅👍
Haha yeah, it was obvious Federer was kinda flirting
You mean partners?
I like how their love story begins, its just ...I cant see the ball
😂😂
Best coment ever
😂
HAHAHAHAHA WTF! 😂🤣😂😂🤣🤣
😆😆😆
Roger looks enjoying the game not because it’s tennis but because he’s with Mirka.
How beautiful Mirka was back then. She still is. They are such a lovely couple and so good together.
7:28 Lleyton knows 😄 and I love that Roger and Mirka virtually have the same hairdo and headband look.
Mirka retired not long after due to a foot injury but became Roger's no.1 fan as his career took off.
Federer clearly focus on his girlfriend more than the match
I had not known that Roger's wife also played tennis.. beautiful story here. So much love
she dated federer when he was no one....n federer still with her when he has everything.....behind a man success, there stands a great woman!!!
He credits her a lot of his success for sure :)
@@yourlarkivist true
He'd already won juniors' wimbledon in 1998, he wasn't exactly "nobody".
@@Lightn0x of coz but his name not so big at that time, for sure he's prodigy n a great future in front of him
It has been confirmed that his wife cheated on him, as his 2 'daughters' are not biologically his...
The only game of tennis where you could score and be in love at the same time.
Underrated comment
they lost bc they were busy flirting with each other
Roger wanted her to smack a different ball that night .’ )
😁
@@masteroogway3040 hahaha
You can tell by feds body language he's like "hey hey wassup girl?" Lol.
They weren't thinking about tennis))
they lost the match but won each other😍
Who's here, looking back on the heyday of Roger Federer now that he's retired
Only ur mom
They both look lovely and they can not stop smiling. Now they are watching this game and saying, oh damn it, how fast it is passed... wish them my best :)
Federer may have lost this game, but he won the game of life :D
You can tell Roger’s smile & body language that he’s really in love. Absolutely mesmerized with Mirka. 😊
She was so innocent in The interview after match with her lack confidence in speaking English .. adorable 😍
This has to be put in context! Roger Federer was barely 18 and Mirka was a few years older. They met at the 2000 Olympics and they obviously developed a serious Chemistry going forward..Great story and two times identical twins later going forward!
Federer is 22 in this
I think he shouldve married someone younger than him, not older.
@@dionmonteiro02 20, this is 2002 hopman cup, it was a traditional warm-up event for the Australian Open.
@@biancahotca3244 it's his choice and he is happy about it so yours opinion doesn't matter
Fed is one blessed man with Mirka and their children. The beautiful thing is he understands it completely which so many men do not in today's society.
It wouldn't be unlikely if we see an all Federer final in the Men's & Women's Singles, and Mixed Doubles in the near future.
Cosmoevents21st:
same can be said about some women in terms of appreciating their husband, if you want to deal in broad strokes. i reject reverse-sexism!
@@trents3515 Absolutely. I can't tell you how many times I saw women who had great loving spouses throw it all away.
@@cosmoevents21st56 :
that's refreshing.
Lel only men?
Love those two! Roger and Mirka a gift from God to each other!
7:35 Even Hewitt can't see the ball. What chance do us viewers have?
damn they are the cutest couple and how she support him was priceless
So miss the Hopman Cup in Perth. It was killed off by Tennis Australia, and was a more leisurely and fun way for players to adjust to the dreadful heat of the Australian summer. One of the last matches had Serena Williams serving to Roger Federer, it was incredible. And the diamond-encrusted tennis ball trophies were so sweet.
Even today, people still call Mirka a gold digger....
I really don't understand tennis trolls 😅 ignorance on new levels
Yes. Roger was a newby when she met the older Mirka. No goldigging going on
these trolls are jealous..obviously
@@happytraveller2122 Plus: If you've seen some of his interviews, etc., you inevitably come to the conclusion that Roger Federer is by no means so stupid that he would still be with Mirka even after 21 years if they didn't understand and love each other = if only she were a gold digger.
@@HC3053suevus I dotn think a gold digger would bear 2 sets of twins.
@@rasher331 You never know for sure, especially as an outsider, but after 22 years together, the two still seem to get along quite well and I didn't mean and write anything else with my comment above.
I only know Ms. Federer-Vavrinec from this video and from Wikipedia, but according to that she is apparently a very likeable (and pretty) person (like Mr. Federer), and at the age of 18 back then Roger Federer was just as little a big earner as his later wife, so that the gold digger status can probably be ruled out for both of them, but according to this video the two were simply totally in love with each other (and probably or hopefully still get along very well with each other today).
It is of course also a very nice coincidence that the two got two twin daughters in 2009 and two twin sons in 2014.
Haven't seen these just now I'm a big fan of Roger Federer and so amazed that they had played together with his wife mirka before💝an avid fan here from DAVAO City,Philippines
Lleyton’s face at 7:28 is priceless.
And Rogers face at 7:32….❤️ in the air
Hewitt knows! 😂 did Federer know that he knows? 😁
Roger n Mirka can't have enough of one another. Unfathomable joy everytime they go close to each other to high-five or chat. Just can't contain their smile. So cute🥰
@@nomad4273 he's like... can we pls keep the lovie-dovies chat out of the court n continue our game. 😁
Hello Agata, greetings from Switzerland to Poland. :) Yes, Roger and Mirka have already enchanted the fans back then, even Leyton. ^^ When I see Roger play, I am proud to be Swiss. Hopp Schwiiz!
He’s so cute with his support. Who would’ve thought what was to come!
Both are made for each other. May God bless this beautiful couple❤️❤️🙏🙏
The Swiss couple look cute together. I think the husband could be big one day.
I think the wife could be big one day. Actually, twice! With twins!!
LooooL 😂👌👌
She is not Swiss & he is half South African.
Exemplary - Role Models to be emulated ...
Tennis is Truly a "LOVE Match Game"
Lol! Me too! 😊
I see beautiful love in both of their eyes so this is really a beginning of sweet love story 💓💓
I started to like Roger even more after watching this he just smile and laugha
Although Fed lost, we can see both player try to cover for each other and even losing a point ended with a smile
I could see beautiful smiles from Roger.
I thought Roger was kinda touchy feely then read that they were already dating when this match took place.
They were so cute and you could see they were in love.
I am having the biggest AWWW moment. Mirka has a cool backhand.
Can anyone actually see the ball? was this filmed with a microwave?? 🤣
You're being generous, this was obviously filmed with a potato
UFO-Grade camera... They are big ass washing machine....
😂😂😂
It was played in Perth, it probably felt like inside a microwave.
Niyas Madappattu Alikutty Yes, crazy humidity / temperatures during Hopman Cups in Perth. HC was a great lead up to Aussie Summer of Tennis leading into AO 🏆
Doubles partners now with their own two pairs of twin offspring pairs. That's probably unprecedented in human history
👇 this is how many of us love Roger
What exactly is lovable about him there? Pretty stupid and unexperienced. As Mirka said, she would have liked him to be a little bit more experienced at that time.
Don't insult Roger. Only 72? You should be ashamed of yourself
Mirka is the biggest winner with 20 GS Trophies at her home now !
At 6:17 fedrer blushing so much ...i hv never ever seen him like this on tennis court.
They look identical when they are fixing their strings.
They began dating much earlier than the time of that match, they actually met at Sydney Olympics 2000.
That match was in 2002.
That old chap, the commentator, he probably knows what's going on behind the scenes and asks her about it sneekingly at 15:10 😂
Damn this is kinda fascinating
I know right???
WivoRN Productions absolutely. One of those historical moments in tennis
Is this Hopman Cup 2002?
@@owenbenjaminshapiro6285 yes
Federer was just a directionless RAW TALENT. Mirka gave him the CONFIDENCE, the death of his coach Carter brought plenty of FIRE in him and the problems created by Nadal made him SUSTAIN so long. Federer should ever be thankful to these three and he is!!
Nadal made Federer doubt himself. He was invincible before Nadal.
Has Roger said all this or are you just spitballing ?
@@binkyxz3 "It is only after Carter's death, I began to really work hard" - Federer. "Without Rafa I wouldn't have won as many Slams" - Federer. And Mirka has been to almost all Roger Federer matches. If that isn't confidence, then what is it then, my friend?
@@Sathishkumar-pm8tu Are those quotes from a book? If so what's the title?
@@binkyxz3 Those are from his interviews. I read those long back and recollected only from my memory. If you "Google search" those quotes, you will find the same or almost same from other sources. Then you can believe those are true.
0:25
Rogy : ooh Nice one
Roger and Mirka lost but they were surprisingly very happy during and after the match. Aaahh, what love can do....
After teaming up with Miroslava, Federer be like:
become over the moon after getting your lover as a teammate in the final year project at college.❤️❤️❤️
Federer playing tennis with his wife, intro with Rafa's opening teaser,
you sure did put a lot of thought into this!!
This channel uses that intro for every video, but yeah, that irony is not lost on me
Wow! I Love their Love... Federer and Mirka! Beautiful! More Love and Forever...! :)
If wife'supports him One day he could be good player
She's so pretty❤
Love is in the air!
Ah the beauty of Mixed Doubles tennis! Such strategies and tactics! Endless variations!
Great pair .. love both of them
Very nice team Mirka and Roger!🇨🇭🇨🇭🇨🇭
Wow…. Did not know Mirka herself was a tennis player.. that’s the reason she was so involved in all Federer games…. And Federer was so happy… clearly falling in love….
Martina Navratilova’s Dad coached Mirka.
RIP Hopman Cup 😭 Here's hoping Roger revives this incredible tournament format in some way to honor his time in Perth.
No wonder she is always animated in the box..
Now that’s an inspiring, great story.
They are a lovely couple with beautiful children. 🥰🥰🥰
Great to see Federa & his wife playing 👏👏👏👏👏💙❤️
The most convincing love-game Federer has played thus far.
They lost the match but found their's..
If I had a quid for every pixel in this video, I'd have 75p
Never knew she played tennis 🎾 I'm gob smacked really to see where it all started. Great video a true gem 💎 of tennis trivia.
There was much more to win than a match for Federer here! 🙂 Nice..
Esos 2 son un éxito completo... fuera de las canchas. Clearly
you know this match is nothing but funny at home for them. All four kids probably have a field day laughing at mom and dad so young and "in love" lol
Rodger is so smiley
They are both from Swiss, I think they know each other from a long long time ago. They are already in relation before this match.
He said that they met each other the first time in the Olympics
Just too adorbs inc Lleyton's reaction hahahaha
Omg she can jam!!! Fed you are a very very lucky man 😎
Perfect pair
So cute together
Nadal should also do this with his wife.
He is the only member of Big 4 whose wife doesn't even play for fun!
I don't think Xisca plays tennis tho...
His wife never played tennis.
Oh boy you stalker
I thought nadal was gay
@@damienheller-chen582 He is, him and kyrgios have been getting it on since that acapulco match. Guess tension was too high.
Made for each other.
never knew Mirka was this good
She was certainly good:)
“हार कर जीतने वाले को बाजीगर कहते हैं”
~ Roger Federer
Both are great pair
Thumb nail pic: he's happy to look at her face n she's happy to look at his. Aah Roger like the pretty girl next door look 😊
This is a Federer video, not a Djokovic one. I respect both players but the fact that the fans of both players have to go at it in comment sections where the footage is clearly highlighting Federer, not Djokovic or vice-versa is sickening and really puts a bad image on our role models.
On a whole it's usually amazing to hear fans go at each other when the 2 players they're dueling about are probably out to dinner and drinks somewhere together.
NubOnSteroid this is a Federer video read the title
Damon Wayans what has Djokovic being a goat got to do with a video about Federer playing tennis with his wife
@Damon Wayans you just proved OCs point.
@Damon Wayans greatest jerk of all time. Tied with McEnroe
Much love ❤
damn that video quality back n the day
First date is memorable, oh those good old days.
Roger couldn't wait for the match to be over.. wonder why??? 🤣🤣🤣😍😍
They had such a wonderful cameras back in 1950s
She's absolutely adorable. !!
Ah Roger, met the love of his life at the age of 18.
