Unlike their 2012, and 2009 encounter, and even an older Federer in 2017, the main problem is that so many shots are so short. That break in the 3rd set was due to his shots landing consistently deep, otherwise all match he was getting bullied by playing such short shots. Definitely a good match by Nadal, but Federer was very tentative.
Dissentry so😆 back him out of play.
Always exciting when the two greatest go at it. Rafa had a bit more energy and a lot of spring in his step for this one!
@@oscardiaz9170 And you're his obsessed fanboy bitch
@@oscardiaz9170 how can your father have less GS than his sons?
Yes, its always exciting when Djokovic and Nadal play each other
With bigger racket also he couldn't defeat Nadal also
The problem is not racket but the weak backhand actually and nothing else for sure
He mastered his backhand and started defeating Nadal on hard courts(Outdoors) actually in 2017
He is not losing because of rackets he losing because of his backhand mostly he is constantly targeting fed backhand most of the time actually
Federer is dominating Nadal on indoors since 2004
2015 Basel was expected for sure Nadal would lose to Federer.
2017 Federer became stronger and powerful player than Nadal at the age of 35 years for sure.
You mean the second and the third going at it?
You can really tell that Federer is really not confident in hitting his BH, compared to 2017 to present day.
Excuses. Federer was already using in this match the new bigger racquet. Nadal dominates Federer 3-1 at the AO. The only differences in the 2017 AO final were:
(1) In 2017 Nadal was 30 years old and slower than in 2009-2014. While Federer was even older, his game is more offensive and depending on shot-making, while Nadal's game is more physically demanding and requires his peak speed to reach defensive balls.
(2) Nadal was tired in the AO 2017 final, as he had played a 5 hours semifinal with Dimitrov and had one less day to rest before the final. Nadal.hksmelf confirmed in the post-match interview that he was tired.
Yeah, his BH shanked a lot. He got much better in 2017 though, beating an in form Rafa 4 times if I'm not mistaken
@@ketan6182Excuses. Federer was using the same exact racquet size for the backhand in the AO 2014 but he couldn't get pass Nadal cause Nadal was playing at his peak in AO 2014. Nadal was 1) younger, 2) faster, and non-tired in the AO 2012 and AO 2014. In the AO 2009 he won despite being tired cause he was in his physical prime. Nadal wasn't that "in form" in the AO 2017 final. He played a nearly 5 tours semifinal with Dimitrov and had one day less to rest than Federer, so he was kinda tired not to mention that he was 30 and so less fast. Nadal absolutely needs his peak speed as his style is more defensive than Federer's one. Nadal was 30 years old the whole 2017 and so not at his physical prime, also Federer skipped clay strategically to avoid losing to Nadal and lost to Delpo before losing to Nadal at the USO 2017 so his stats are inflated in that sense. Federer was using the same Big racquet in the AO 2014 than in the AO 2017 but he couldn't defeat a really in form Nadal. Anyway, Nadal domiantes Federer 3-1 at the AO.
@@jameswalker6864 I love how you start your list of excuses for Nadal with a one-word sentence: Excuses.
Your honesty is...different.
@@jameswalker6864 you yourself write essay with excuse and here you're calling other people's comment as excuse
No one was better at taking Federer out of his comfort zone than Nadal. Far too often he has Federer on a string moving him from side to side behind the baseline. He hammers his forehand to break down Roger's backhand, if he slices Nadal almost always runs around to hit a forehand and he uses his powerful 2 handed backhand to stretch Federer to the forehand. Federer often came to the net in bad positions and Nadal easily passed him.
Whenever I watch nadal beat federer I always go back to AO 2017 to feel happy 😊
I really don't get why people like so much Roger next to Rafa... I see modesty in both of them. I don't feel happy about Roger beating Rafa in AO 2017 personnally. Because Rafa came from way more far than Roger. Nadal was injured during 3 straight years and all. You know the story. To me it's sad. You can prefer a player next to another one but it's not necessary to disrespect the player who play against the one you like more.
Without his injuries, Rafa would have already the grand slam record since a long time now. Before 2017, Federer was Nadal's little bitch for one full decade.
Mr.Marlonito nadals been injured his whole life. what is your point?
Beauty. Why do people prefer the attractive to the unattractive? That's why people always prefer roger. (talking tennis aesthetics not physical stuff)
+Aaron Mychal Ruiz true

Man, looking at this match compared to the one last month, Federer's backhand here was non existent
you gotta remember Federer was just coming out of a slump 2013 and he change raquets also
Nadal is not the same player though. Don't get me wrong, Fed has probably improved, but Nadal has declined big time. He's way slower, can't take long rallies no more, has 10x weaker serve and not even need to mention the mental part.
NLLeFa I agree nadal can't play defense like he use to and now he can no longer go after the federer backhand like he did early on in the rivalry
Navid Namini
It was in their 2009 meeting at the same venue, though! But it didn't serve Federer any good. Nadal was a beast then.
NLLeFa age slows everyone down. federer as well. sympathize with federer keeping up with these freaks

Bro why only 1 video do upload more if you get the time
the fact when nadal at that time still a bit younger ,(27 yrs) federer (33) couldn't match nadal who later won 2 grandslams french open and us open in 2017 and back to # 1 again
Azmi Ganie and couldn't beat him once this year..
xex but he's still 23-15 after all...
@@zakariadjouzi7570 but 23-15 it's like 60% victory for rafa and 40% for not like in 2014 23-10 70% for rafa and 30% for federer + the fact they played most of their matches on clay and federer is leading in grass + hardcourts so I think Federer winning the last 5 matches is a turning point of the rivalry
@@angerisdiscipline3913 not really since it's still 23-15 so there's no turning points for real, and Federer only led in hard in 2017 and he's only leading there 11-9 while he's only leading in grass 2-1 while Nadal is leading on clay 13-2 against Federer and when it matters the most in Grand Slams Nadal is leading there too 9-3 including 5-0 in RG & 3-1 in the AO while they never faced each other in the USO & Federer is only leading 2-1 in Wimbledon so Rafael Nadal defenitely dominated Federer mostly during their rivalry over their entire career since 15 years ago mostly !!!
@@zakariadjouzi7570 Federer is better in Grass and Hard and Rafa is better on clay as simple as that . you are saying what is relevant is 9-3 in slams (wich 5 of them are in the french open where rafa is unbeatable) you are true but at the same time I have to say 5-1 in Wtf are also very important , but I have an explanation to why federer struggled against rafa in slams in his prime and why in 2017 all of a sudden he was flying against him and destroyed him.
It's mental : All of these players are very very good the margin between who wins in matches like wimbledon 2007-2008 ROme 2006 Ao 2009 is very slim . So I do think what matters is the mental strenght : from 2008-2014 federer always had the pressure of the GOAT of the number one of the calendar grand slam + all the loses in clay so in that period rafa had the edge no doubt.
But in 2017 Federer didn't play for 6 months didn't win a slam for 5 years , he had no pressure compared to other years so he was able to get a win against rafa , and an other , and an other one , and ect ... so that's the way the rivalry turned around it's mental I do think now it's rafa who has mental barriers against roger
Federer tried to take it early here too but the court speed was slower and Nadal was hitting deadly down the line
Taylor Pack I can’t be the only one who thinks Nadal is afraid of the Fed FH. When they go toe to toe on that wing, Fed will come out on top. When Nadal is timing it up the line its a sign he’s in form, a strange “problem” to have when it’s considered his stronger side. Fed has never had such a problem.
@@naveed210 to beat Federer you gotta run him around the court and make him take chances to cause errors.
Excuses like always 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Fed learned how he made Roddick feel over and over and over again. Brutal stuff.

Actually it is 5-0 at Roland Garros. You probably forgot 2005 SF
Its 3-3 off clay, nadal's best surface so its not terrible for Fed. I think he could have won RG 2006 final though.
@@incredibleXMan It's 4-3 off clay for Nadal. 3-1 at AO for Nadal and 1-2 at Wimbledon for Federer.
@@lonewolf6327 yes
@@incredibleXMan Federer doesn't even lead his so called favorite surfaces against Nadal, Nadal is 4-3 outside clay in grand slams vs Federer, and with the last French Open beat down it's 10-3 for Nadal.
Furthermore of the 3 Nadal loses to Federer two have been in 5 sets one of which Nadal was a break up in the 5th set (Australain Open) the only none five set Federer ever won was their first Wimbledon match when Nadal had just turned 20 years old and that was still a pretty competitive 4 set match (two tiebreaks) that could have gone to a fifth set, this match up is just Nadal being all over Federer.
Guio oui luio aba.
Roger is always a great player nadal always used Rogers backhand that too single hand less power had it been double Roger could have been invincible he takes less time to finish off service game not grunting wins singlehandedly when many are monsters with double hand and taking much time for service grunting cool style of play by Roger with different varieties not found in any other players makes him different but winning single handedly many fans too than other players
Everything is fair in winning if he is targeting backhand he should improve his backhand for sure not losing these many times to Nadal
funny, all these AO titles Federer has and Nadal only the one- yet their H2H at AO is awful against Fed....
AO's courts typically were very slow prior to 2017. All Rafa had to do to beat Roger there was play some top spin forehand to that one handed backhand and Roger would shank eventually. Also, their 2009 and 2012 meetings were actually pretty close. I know their 2012 meeting may look like a one sided beatdown on paper, but it was a competitive match from start to finish.
@@MrPatrickbuit "All Rafa had to do to beat Roger there was play some top spin forehand to that one handed backhand " Lol typical delusional fed fan, attributing Nadal's success to courts being slow even though he barely lost that 2017 final to Federer.
Nadal reached 5 finals here, 2 loses where he was a break up in a fifth set against both Federer in 2017 and Djokovic in 2012, and one lose due to injury vs Wawrinka in 2014, Nadal was better than Federer in those years that's the only explanation, in fact Nadal is better than Federer in direct match up on any tournament where Federer doesn't get half of his points from fucking service winners, if it becomes a baseline battle Nadal has an 80 % chance of winning, pure and simple, Federer can only win in very special circumstances vs Nadal.
Gherbi Hicham I never said anything about either player being better but ok. Also, the fact that Nadal loses to Fed as soon as the courts are fast really just proves my point, not yours. Whether it be in 5 sets or not, at the end of the day Fed won. And being “up a break” at 3-1 in a set means literally nothing. That was not a choke at all. Nadal is definitely a better baseliner than Fed, but just because you prefer that as a playing style doesn’t make Federer’s serve cheap. The guy is the same height as Rafa yet he has one of the best service games in the game. His serve is one of the most impressive serves in tennis history.
The slow courts aren’t the issue here. Rafa’s matchup versus Fed is. Just look at the Fed vs Nole and Nadal vs Nole matchup. In that scenario, Nole has a two handed backhand which makes the biggest difference in the world. Fed has beaten prime Nole twice on every surface except grass and has a 31% winrate against prime Nole (2011 onwards.) Nadal has only beaten nole twice off clay and has a 26% winrate against prime Nole, but realistically it’s extremely low on every surface except clay, where it’s 66%. You can say “but Nadal was in bad form in 2015,” but has Nadal been able to beat Nole on a hardcourt since then? No he hasn’t.
The slow courts are not the reason Fed can’t beat Rafa consistently, but they definitely play a role, because Fed has a one handed backhand. It has nothing to do with the *quality* of Fed’s backhand, but everything to do with the *stylistic feature* of his backhand.
@@MrPatrickbuit Why even bother explaining tennis to these delusional Federer haters, they'll never understand why Federer has 20 major titles, to them everything he's accomplished is one giant conspiracy against Nadal and Djokovic.
@@mattheweberly123 Honestly Nadal and Djokovic are already more accomplished players than Federer, but Nadal's H2H versus Fed is an unfair way to measure it.

Back when Rafa was at a good level so Federer couldn't really do anything. Let alone when he was in his very prime. Miss those days. Now he's good on clay only, which is great, but Roger will never play on this surface again so he has some chance to get close on the head to head record.
Should I remind you of this year's final dude ? Both were on good level
in terms of play
Federer had a nonexistent backhand. With the way Federer plays this year, he could beat Nadal at any tournament, (maybe not in the french open)..
😶Nllefa should you be reminded who won US. slam2017. not a clay court
Siiiike!
ChrisByBacon Nadal was also significantly slower in 2017, and speed is more important for Nadal's game than Federer's one, as Nadal is far more physical. Not to mention that Nadal was a bit tired after the 5 horas semifinal with Dimitrov. So no, 2017 Federer would not beat any version of Nadal outside clay.
KING NADAL👑
KING STAN
GOAT ROGER
How slow is this court or the balls or whatever 😱
That ridiculous rally at 7:19 I don’t think Federer would have lost between 2017-19 lmao
nope..federer hard to beat nadal..nadal can play so hard ..only novak can coz novak dont make to much error n great defend..n also nadal mental strong than federer n also strong body ..if they fight nadal ko federer
I don't think 2013-2014 Nadal would have lost between 2017 and 2019 to Federer. 2017-2019 Nadal is slower than in 2013-2014, and Nadal's game is more physical than Federer's one, so he needs that extra speed to reach defensive balls.
@@jameswalker6864 Funny how Fed fans think Federer actually got better in 2017 when in fact it was Nadal who got so much slower, Any Federer would have lost to 2013- early 2014 on hard courts, he was just that good.
@@gherbihicham8506 no friggin way...2013-14 Nadal only dominates fed coz that was feds worst year. 2009 to 2012 Nadal was just as good or even better than 2013-14 Nadal and both Nadal Nd fed had some close quality harcourt matches during that period like AO2009, 12 Nd a few beatdowns from both like WTF2011, Miami2011, IW2012 etc. The rivalry on hard courts was pretty even then and it depended on the surface a lot. My point is IW2017 fed surpasses any level he showed prior to that, even 2004-2007. So definitely any incarnation of Nadal loses to IW 2017 fed on hard and grass court. There was simply no weakness to exploit in his game.
Poor fed bigger rackets not saving him from Djokovic also 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nadal and Djokovic using bigger rackets since they are teenagers to dominate tennis world actually and they succeeded also
This Federer changed his racket into bigger racket in 2014🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and lost 4 grandslam finals to Djokovic for sure.
If he had use smaller racket he would definitely play better against Djokovic at grandslams for sure
Nadal pushed Federer to 5 sets in Australian open 2017 finals when he lost speed,Strength,Stamina after turning age 30 also and Federer was using Bigger racket only that time.
Rafael Nadal is just great grass court player but still he played best in first 2 sets against Federer also
Later Federer dominated Nadal in 3rd set and 4th by putting pressure on him beginning actually in 2019 Wimbledon
It's all about focus,Confidence,Training and mental strength actually not about rackets for sure
This year Federer change his racquet size
It must suck for Federer that not only Nadal is a better tennis player than him but he’s also more attractive. The full package.
Aww, liked your own comment I see😂😂😂
Ketan Kunkalikar not really, but now I did 😘
The least memorable of their four AO matches
In memorability order it goes: 2009, 2017, 2012, 2014.
In terms of quality of tennis I agree that AO 09 was the best, but I understand "memorable" in a more historical way. AO 2017 was more relevant for the history of tennis
Is the first final in GS between them since RG 2011, with their respective comebacks and probably it would be the last big final of Federer vs Nadal.
Where's that amazing rally on second set 5:3 15:30 ??? o.O
by the AO 2017 final
What was the deal with Federer hitting do many forehands long?
It's painful to watch how slow the court is.
Credit to Rafa in this match, banging very hard and consistent from the baseline, bullying Fed who was making quite a few forced and unforced errors..
In other words
"Credit to Rafa but I'm going to take away that credit now"
Not taking credit away from him..
What's the point of this comment, Federer compared to Djodal makes way more errors since the dawn of time
I don't know, do you have the statistics on that to prove it? Probably not..
@@NamTran-xc2ip That's because Federer plays much more aggressive tennis than Novak and Nadal. But In this match his unforced errors were unusually high. he hit like 3 drive volleys into the net.
Baby life.
no comparaison with 2017 federer who was taking the ball so early and just bombing those backhands from every where
Yassine Diez Nadal 2017 was not as good as Nadal 2014. Speed kills and Nadal was a 2 steps slower in 17.

Federer never beaten Nadal in 3 sets in a grandslam in any of his only 4 wins. all are tight encounters except the last one at the wimdledon 2018 when was 4 sets. He just beaten baby Djokovic in early encounters in straight sets. Imagine if all 3 played at same age, Federer may not won any grandslams against these giants Rafa/Djokovic
@@sathishr7842 Federer had a great record against Djokovic before 2013. I would say both Djokovic and Federer in their primes are even and their primes never really overlapped except the closest in 2011-2012. However the age difference is 6 years so it’s normal to not having it overlapping peaks. Nadal on clay peaked very early and even earlier on hard courts and grass in 2008/2010. Djokovic would have prime earlier if not for gluten intolerance but I would say Federer matches up better game wise than he does with Nadal. Both have better mentality than Federer but I think if Federer had to earn his slams early on I think he would be forced to develop mental strength early in his career. My thoughts
Only due to Federer I love tennis
Blue clay
3 years later Federer would turn the tables.
Looking back on this match, I have little doubt in my mind 2017-18 Federer would have beaten Nadal. Federer did some things well, but often his finishing ability really let him down and he hit way too many routine balls long or into the net (perhaps partly due to getting used to the new racquet, which he's very well adjusted to now). He allowed too many very long rallies, which always favoured Rafa because his loopy balls have much more margin on them than Federer's, so they often ended with a Federer error. I'm watching this match imagining how 2017-18 Roger would have handled the balls coming over the net at him from Rafa. Rafa was very beatable in first set and a half, he only really stepped it up in the second half of the match because of the scoreline momentum and confidence he was gaining (largely due to Roger's failings). This new Roger would have taken time away from Rafa by standing further into the court and taking the balls earlier. He would have also been mentally stronger, with much more self-belief against his rival, which he clearly lacked here (you can see Nadal is still in his mind) - not enough positivity from Federer, too much negativity. Seeing what Roger has done recently helped me see these failings of Roger in this match - at the time I thought he played reasonably well and that it was completely down to Rafa playing too well. But looking back I see things very differently.
FedX Very good analysis, though I would say long rallies don't just favor Nadal because of the margin on his top spin shots, but also because Federer can't generate as much power above his hip on his backhandas a player with a two handed backhand could. Federer also sliced way too much back then. And when Roger slices, it's almost always to Rafa's forehand, which is laggy and isn't bothered by backspin at all.
In the end Rafa was set to dominate this H2H from day one, but 2017 Roger (especially the AO - Miami variant) could have made this rivalry a lot less one sided.
Nadal was much better here than in 2017, Federer had to fight back from 5th set lead against Nadal to win the match, LMAO what makes you think he can beat Nadal here? Even with all of the things he got in his favor(improved backhand, good serve etc..) in 2017, he barely even won the match, the Nadal of 2014-2012 definitely wins against any version of Federer on this court.
@@MrPatrickbuit Rafa dominated Federer right from the start at the age of 18 when he defeated in Miami on a Hardcourt.had rafa been the same age as Federer he would have dominated him even more.at 18 Nadal was far from his prime.
Jeffrey Kaufmann You say that, but Federer’s winrate over Nadal didn’t decrease over the years. Even when Federer was getting older and Nadal entered his physical prime, Federer maintained roughly the same win/loss ratio against Rafa. In fact, Federer has actually improved the H2H severely in the last few years, even though it’s Nadal who should have been having the advantage of being younger for almost a decade now.
Most of the matches Federer lost to Nadal were from *2005 - 2008 and 2013.*
We all know Nadal beats Roger, but the question is *why.* It’s not because he’s that much better. If he were, Roger wouldn’t be having a 34% winrate against prime Nole while Rafa only has a 25% winrate. And that’s while Federer and Nole met up the most when Federer was old too (33/34.)
Then again, you’re probably the kind of person who says that Federer entered his prime at 34 and he could only beat Rafa and Nole while they were injured. There’s no use in arguing with you, because you’ve closed your mind from the beginning.
Fun fact: This is the last win of Nadal over Federer in a grand slam outside of clay.

Mom's spaghetti so your saying peak fed on grass would loose to nadal no thank you maybe on hard and clay but prime fed on grass is unbeatable I could only see Sampras coming close
Yeah... You might be right. But in my opinion, the Nadal that I saw winning Wimbledon in 2008 and 2010 is at least close to being(or maybe even just as good) as any Federer that I've seen winning in London.

@@deception9848 what does that have to do with this OP comment
Lot being said and Proved that Federer is only 3rd best player. Nadal and Djokovic are far better than him. Nadal and Djokovic are still playing due to the reason that they want to prove that they are always better than federer and his 20 numbers in GS. Hope they both get close to 25 grandslams. Federer's 10 of 20 was easily breezed thru the weak era. Long live real kings Nadal Djokovic!!
Federer's backhand is the worst ever
Maybe it was Nadal's last ever win against Federer.
hopy51 maybe because Federer won't play clay tournaments anymore:p
Marc-Antoine Brosseau if only nadal would make it past grass chumps. we would see more fed nadal
yeah..
Marc-Antoine Brosseau You really believe Nadal can only beat Federer on clay now? lol. They are very evenly matched on hard court. Head to head on hard court is 10-9 to Federer. So by the end of last year, Nadal was actually leading 9-7 on hard court...
vicky mooney no, I think Federer did not play on clay this year only to not loose against nadal but i don't want to start a debate on that:)
why does Nadal put so much spin on the ball? - that only gives more time for the opponent to get ready. If he hit the ball a bit more flat he would win more points faster because he has power, but he is wasting it by using so much spin on every shot.

Adithya Naren 2006 Roger > 2015 Novak > 2010 Nadal
2015 Novak = R.I.P anyone who played him
2009 nadal lost to Soderling at Roland Garros. In 2009, Fed won both the Frech Open and WImbledon. Learn history dude
Agassi, Carlos Ferero, Roddick, Federer 2003> Federer 2004-2009> Nadal 2008-2018> Novak 2011-2018 but 2017-2018 Federer return
Nobody is beating 2016 Novak in Australia. He destroyed Federer. 2011 and 2012 were both very good too.
2013-2014 .... Worst form Of Federer...
Excuses. In 2014 Federer was playing great. He reached the AO semifinal, the USO semifinal and was VERY CLOSE to win the Wimbledon 2014 final. In the 5th set of the Wimbledom 2014 final, Roger had several break points against Novak.
2013 yes, 2014 Federer was better than 2010-2012 Federer.
@@gherbihicham8506 2014 Federer was not as good as 2011-2012 Federer no way. 2010 was kind of a down year after winning AO until us open/indoor season.
@@dewman7477 I agree with you. But 2015-2017 Federer arguably is better than 11-12. In 11-12 he was younger but his bh is a clear weakness, his bh in 15-17 were so much better, not that powerful but deeper
@@NamTran-xc2ip Federer forehand was much better in 2011-2012 than it was from 2015-2017 (his backhand slightly better though in 2017 in terms of aggression). Federer movement and footwork was also better in 2011-2012 too
