i broke down yesterday, it was so tough to see. When rafa cried, It got me. I cried just because i will never see my idol again. Thanks ROger. Ever the best, GOAT if we want. For my, nobody can be before him
His backhand shot (single handed) is flawless. Its special. Its the trademark of Roger.
That is what he should be remembered for, his open chested backhand. A unique weapon indeed.
It ended up being his weakness but without a doubt the best looking shot in history
@@kevinchang5082 It ended up as his strength
@@AbhijeetSingh-ed3lw his one handler looked great but unfortunately it’s actually a weak shot
His forehand was his hest shot.
His last dance today at the laver cup was truly heartwarming.
Federer’s 5 consecutive US Open title is so underrated. To win it for 5 years in a row is almost an impossible feat to achieve
My 20 year old grew up playing junior tennis. He had a national ranking and played college tennis. Tomorrow will be his first day without Federer. He was in tears watching Federer's last match. Thank you Roger for it all.
Truely one of the all-time greats!
He did so much for the sport.
Glad to have been there for his entire career. What a priviledge.
That match was surreal to watch. Happy he and Nadal managed to make it a close affair. What an emotional ending that was. Nadal breaking down almost got to me.
such a melancholic feeling after that match finished
Federer and Nadal should have won the match
@@Ben6164 Federer choked as usual in that match
Crazy to think Roger never won the USO again after doing so five times in a row, and crazier to think that he and Nadal never met there.
5 times in a row... which is anyway an all times record, and 6 finals in a row adding 2009.
But yes, crazy, I agree.
An enigma!
2009 in 5 sets too ^^ so.. but he was closely invincible between 2004 and 2008
He would have won it in 2017 if he hadn't injured himself prior to the tournament.
@@mickedeut Of course.
During this era, he established 2 of the most impressive records of tennis' history, the series of victories against the world top 10 without losing even a single match.
He didn't lose during 2 and 1/2 years against any of the best 10 players on the planet (well, the 9 other, as he can't play against himself), making an incredible huge series of 24 victories. Then, the second best series of history is 17 victories without losing eve 1 game, and this series has bee made by... Federer, again.
The 2nd best player has a record which is "only" the half of Fed's 1st series, 12, and it's not RN nor ND, but Sampras (or Agassi, a lil doubt).
Then, RN & ND have records around 9-10. They never won more than 9-10 times in a row Vs the top 10, while Fed did win 17 times, and even 24 times back to back.
Oki Bruce i guessed you were a huge fed fan
The mighty "Fed", gave us 23 years of tennis at its best. He was one of a kind. The young guns have the job in front of them to match his lasting legacy.
We all are very lucky to have watched Roger at his peak. He was and will be way above every one else, in a own league of himself. The greatest ever. Miss you Roger.
We will miss you Roger 😢
Looking back his prime that let me know how perfect he was, I thought tennis is a easy sport by his moves on the court.
Proud to be youRFan Roger❤️❤️🇨🇭🐐
You wouldn't miss tennis as much as tennis would miss you. Farewell, ROGER.
Roger Federer is the greatest Tennis Player the world.We will miss him. Thanks.
He is a legend..
Thank you Roger ❤️. Your best moments are yet to come so look forward to your future.
That ain’t true. I’m a few months from 40. Even though I have more money and land than I’ve ever had, I have a feeling it’s all down hill from here. Nothing better than youth. I have a feeling that’s part of the reason why Nadal was crying as well. Despite his success this year, and despite the fact that he could probably return to just the clay court season and thrive, he knows his days are numbered.
We were lucky to see him play live n highlights! Thanks Roger and those positively concerned!! Great!!
Pffff, can't stop crying!
The ceremony of retirement was the most moving thing I saw in my life... and I lived a lot, as i'm the age of my great compatriot Roger Federer.
Nadal cried almost as much as Roger. Mirka, Lynette and Robert, and the 4 kids of Roger, all the family cried a lot too of course.
I saw Tsitsipas crying, Ruud a bit, Berrettini too, Taylor Fritz also, and even ND cracked up in the end; and many spectators obviously. Easier to count the people who didn't cry at all.
because someone in 02 Arena was cutting onions thats the reason!
Meanwhile....
Andy Murray: wanders around casually, cracking jokes trying to cheer the other players up, to no avail
Cameron Norrie: "what am I doing here?" 😂
@@mickedeut Now THAT must be the reason!
Thanks a lot for the help!
😁😭😜
He may not be the GOAT for many. But, he will always be people's champion for sure. the forever irreplaceable - one and only - Roger Federer!!
Roger the One Forever
💗 He kept that pinky promise to that kid also 👍💗 He
We will miss him very much Roger!!!😢😔🎾❤️
Thank you Goat
RF 🇨🇭 ❤️
The US Open account could have specified while remembering his 5 titles there, that he won them in a row, which is one of his countless records, 5 titles back to back at the US open.
Brasil loves you roger❤️🇧🇷
ALWAYS enjoyed watching him play; watching tennis will NEVER be the same anymore.
Well done Roger you were a great champion. It’s fascinating that despite all the Roger-Rafa rivalry, they never played each other in the US open and remain great friends.
MAGICAL AND BRILLIANT HE WAS
Roger Federer ik kan er geen genoeg van krijgen wat een topper super wauw
I remember one of the most greatest amazing matches of this legend to watch how he not only inspired himself also the entire croud by returning from to sets behind he came through out of nowhere. It was phenomenal and warm to watch. An inspiration in tennis history. Such a great amazing legend lots a thanks Roger. A privilege to watch such an amazing legend❤️😃
My king, I love Federer, Bangladesh.
Really looking forward to all the RF tribute videos/movies that will start pouring in now 😀
Simply the greatest
Surely one of the greatest of all time if not the greatest
the 2010 and 2011 Semis were heartbreaking
Great video and tribute to the big man. Thank you USTA!!
The best US Open player ever
❤🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆❤
Thank you Roger.
We will miss you....♥️🎾
The KING 👑 Roger 🇨🇭🎾❣️
Seeing him play was a surriel experience. What a player he is!I still remember 2012 Wimbledon final, he was playing against home grown kid Murray but people was supporting Roger.
That’s what set him apart from the rest. No matter the tournament, whether or not the opponent was home grown, Fed was always the favorite. Where else do you see that? In ANY sport. I also loved the fact that he never grunted, didn’t grind like the rest of them, rarely ever broke a sweat, and that beautiful single handed backhand (even though it was his weakness).
💙🇨🇭🇨🇭💛 偉大なるキャリアの終止符 Roger Federer from 🇯🇵 UNIQLO❤️❤️💙💛
Living Legend....................................
Roger is my hero
🐐
RForever❤😢❤😢❤🎉🎉
love him❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😭
Legend of tennes
6 consecutive finals, 5 consecutive championships won. This is TRUE GOAT. He toyed with prime Novak and others.
🐐🐐
It's truly amazing that the last US Open title he's won was back in 2008, and after that, no one (yet) as EVER defended their US Open title.
Crazy.
Thank you Roger. Welcome to the beautiful Algarve. Let's play 👍😘🌞😍
Federer deserved at least 3 more US Open.
Behind Lynette (Roger's mother, sitting in the front row, between Mirka - Roger's girlfriend since they met at the Olympic Games of Sydney, 22 years ago, both being part of the swiss tennis team there, his wife since 2009 and mother of their 2 pairs of twins - and Tony Godsick - Federer's agent) at 6:24, I recognize a basketball player, but don't remember his name.
Anyway, love his reaction, he's totally amazed by the GO.A.T. of sport, and deservebly.
Thank you Roger for beautiful tennis!
The best
legend....
He is the KING ROGER 👑👍😘🌞🤗💯
Only got to see him once live in the Australian Open & the only word that i can use watching him play was "Magician"-Simply a Magician! He & Rafael are are a class above anyone else & i am not talking about tennis skills.
Forget all of Roger's amazing feats for a second...
To win ONE GS is unbelievable in it's self...
But to win The US Open 5 year's on the trot and to win Wimbledon 5 year's on the trot and it could of been been 6 but for possibly the greatest match in history against Rafa it would of been...
Roger has set records will never ever be reached never mind beaten in this or any other lifetime !!!
Yo recuerdo a Federer cuando practicamente debuto como profecional, era aun un jovencito, pero como Nadal y el serbio, y hoy Alcaraz dejaron ya en su primer macht bien sentado que tenian pasta de compeones. Roger Federer!! Gracias por los partidos que nos diste comom un principe que fuistes. Chau!!!
It is beyond me how Roger never won the US Open after 08....
Roger won djokovic ( thrashed him neck & crop) very easily us open in year 2007,2008 & 2009, but djoko won with great difficulty against an aged Roger federer( all 5 sets) in year 2010, 2011& 2015. Federer should have easily won US open in year 2010,2011, 2015, as he was clearly a much better player in these 3 matches
@@mahalakshmid8613 Stop the madness. 2011 he should've won the SF, yes. 2015 should've been five sets, and he still would have had work to do. BP conversion rate strikes again.
best ever
No one can match his dominance, not even jokovich, when he is on weak, no one can beat him, true legend
6,0 at rg against Nadal..
Or you think RG is golf ⛳??
The king👑👑 Roger
Many players play amazing...but to reach the ,,full package,, of Federer Style...ita may be almost, if not impossible!
The Fed-Express will never end
It will always remembered.
7:42, Youzhny, one of the favorite victims of the Maestro.
17 victories to 0 for RF against him; same number against David Ferrer, although Roger played him many times when Ferrer was world n°3 and n°4; but David never beat Goliath in this case.
Then, the 19-2 vs Davydenko, the 21-3 against Roddick and the 23-3 Vs. Wawrinka r his other great results in the H2Hs.
Injury held this man at some point
The us open,was the surprising grand slam of dominated in the early 2000s , and not winning it for over 10 years he would of been 25+ grand slam.and the french open is understandable , with the greatest clay court player of all time in rafa
wow
@5:45 : Please ensure the kid turns out to be Pro. We want to see Federer play once again
He played with federer
Interesting!
Goat
'09,'10,'11,'15 will hurt forever. Should have won one more USO at least.
Does anyone know the music name in the beginning?
05:39 Alcaraz?? ^^
Can’t believe that the last time Federer won a US open title was in 2008. 😢
Both of my favourites retired in one year. Hopefully Nadal doesn’t retire soon.
90s belongs to Sampras, 2000s belongs to Federer and History belongs to Djokovic
And some people are saying alcaraz can defeat 2004-2009 federer
Backhand one hand
It's too bad Roger couldn't have retired at the U.S. Open instead of that nauseating hyped week of Serena!
😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
best tennis player but the media won't give him credit because he is not black. If he was Black, they would put pictures of him all over the media. Praise him, call him the GOAT. Put him on the beast athlete of the era list. This is really sad. He is the greatest.
Yea media doesnt give him ANY, not even a little credit. Of course because Roger isnt black. Disgusting how Tiafoe was the center of attention the last couple days, obviously only cuz he is black… You got it
🤍
My mother would slap me if I called Federer "Rog"
Nadal has 22 Grand Slams!
Second!
After 2008 no uso ... Well after 2008 he won only 8ish slams in a span of 13 years..
His slam tally dried ....
Let's see 3wimbledons, one rg, 3 oz, no uso...
Very dry spell...
He’s only 20😂
He should switch to pickleball and dominate that
First
when federer retire,, i'm stop watching tennis
His last uso win marked the end of a weak era. Two important match are missing 2010 sf AND 2011 sf i wonder why?😂😂😂
So 2008 was still a weak era?? When nadal and doko were slam champs ??😂 also who did fed beat in 2008 uso semis ? Hmm🤔
@@samarthadhikari4830 2008 saw Fed dethroned by Nadal at the end of the weak era.
@@fg92626 fed was infact just two points from victory in wimby 2008. So had he won weak era wud hv lasted till AO 2010??! What a joke🤡 face it…feds consistency from 2003 to 2009 was remarkable with 04 - 06 being absolute peak. 08-09 his confidence took a hit against everyone esp in non majors.
@@samarthadhikari4830 Already 2009 AO final was too strong for Fed
@@fg92626 2009 Madrid was too strong for nadal . Their levels were pretty even in 08-09 (except rg) at this point with feds confidence taking a hit on big stages.
Nadal and Djokovic are better than this weak era champ. Don't @ me you n words
What a weird comment
The only player in history to take this long to retire, all the while milking every last drop of his endorsements. Then he gets a king's farewell to rake in even more eyeballs. Shameless.
