0:41 That ball was practically behind him and he still was able to have enough strength to hit a passing shot from that part of the court. Insane genius!

Baby Berdych being toyed by a peak Fed. It's like watching boys vs men. Berd had no chance from the get go.

Can you reupload here or in VK Federer vs Ungur RG 2012? Same version if possible, that would be great.

Man even if you are a Novak fan videos about him simply get less views

This match didn't go my way but with enough time, I've come to see clearly now what I wish I could have seen back then which is that both of these players (not just my guy) are the #1 and #2 representatives I'd pick for this sport. I wish I'd understood how lucky we all were back then. Some of you did. I wish I'd shared your wisdom.

nadal's mental strengh is only matched by djokovic.

Iconic, both at their best, legendary

This had to be a very tough loss for Federer. I think 2006 might have been his best chance to defeat Nadal at Roland Garros. Rafael Nadal is The King Of Clay.

Do you have the federer vs nadal match from Wimbledon 2019? Thanks.

Un tenis que ya no existe, desgraciadamente ahora la hierba de la pista central de Wimbledon es tan lenta como la de Roland Garros,algunos se aburrían de ver saque y volea y ahora necesitan 30 golpes para ganar un punto.Una pena,era hermoso ver ese juego de ataque.

Roger looking very tired in sets 3-4.

What a performance by the maestro

It's amazing how tennis has progressed. They play at the level of today's top 40

13:34 👏👏👏👏👏

22:53 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Thank you for the video. What strikes me the most here is how Federer seems able to do big damage every time he uses his forehand. It is something we tend to forget while seeing him play from 2010 and onwards but his forehand used to be the best ever seen on a tennis court. Every player feared it on the tour, it was an extraordinary weapon. And yet some people argue that 2017 Federer is better than his 2006 version. Give me a break. He was incredibly fit, strong, quick and lethal that year; his best chance to beat Nadal in the RG final for sure. And yet… The game he loses at 6-1, 0-1, while serving, is the turning point. He leads comfortably 40-0 and still manages to lose the game by playing horribly all of a sudden. This was such a sad day.

what a great start from RF ! how he lost this is beyond me ...

More highlights videos need the walk on for matches like this. It really intensifies the experience!

Watching Federer is pure class

I started as an avid Federer fan but his inability to to win against Nadal and constant whooping he received at RG frustrated me so much , I disliked Nadal so much , so in 2011 when this guy Novak who was constantly joking and retiring from matches beat Nadal in 6 consecutive finals i became a fan of his and and have been his fan since !!!

Federer es Joaquin Fenix in gladiador!

Sampras and Agassi had their day and it was great. Roger had his day and it was great. Awesome quality on this video, thank you! Wonderful piece of tennis history. As an aside, Sampras and Agassi sniping at each other after they retired kind of made me dislike them both a bit.

all time classic

What a highlights, you’re magnificent ❤

this should be archive in the unesco world heritage museum

Layani is immortal

I vividly remember this match! It was the summer before my first year in college so I was packing my stuff while watching this match. Didn’t pack any boxes that day as I was shocked that Sampras lost. 😂

This was the first match of Roger's I ever watched and I was stunned that he beat my childhood idol, "Pistol" Pete Sampras. Pete Sampras winning the US Open in 1990 beating Agassi in the final, was the first tennis match I ever saw. As a kid throughout the 90's, Sampras was my tennis hero. When Roger beat him here, it did not feel like passing the torch or changing the guard. In fact, I was pretty upset 🤪 Mostly because I felt Pete's career was approaching the end and I wanted him to win another Wimbledon. Back then, Roger showed glimpses of his brilliance, but he was still pretty inconsistent. Also, I wasn't made into an instant Roger Federer fan after this match. The matches that turned in me into a fan which never missed another one of his games since, were the matches at the 2003 Tour Finals and AO 2004. Actually the whole 2004 tournament that Roger did, impressed me a lot. After he won Wimbledon in the previous year, which I was very glad for, I was still not 100% convinced about him. His displays at the 2003 Tour Finals and 2004 AO Open finally won me over as an absolute fan.

Best quality footage I've ever seen of this match. Keep up the good work.

It’s easy to be frustrated that these two didn’t run into each other more often, especially in 2002, but when you think about it, it’s nuts that they even met at all considering they retired two entire decades apart

Rafa just not handling the conditions. I wouldn't have expected this given his skill on an uneven surface like clay.

Exquisite work with this one, mate! The 2006 and 2007 RG finals are often found in bad quality, but this is super! Thank you! I hope the RG channel will get to these matches someday. I believe had Roger won that Rome final earlier that year, he would have had the confidence to take this one too. 2006 was probably Roger's best clay year, when he played amazing in MC, Rome and RG but always ended up losing to the phenomenon that was Rafa on clay.

Isner is all serve, not much else.

36:17 That netcord, never knew that even happened. Never realized Nadal was that close to getting to 40-15 and 2 championship points right there at which point he likely finishes the match right there without needing the tiebreak. You learn something new every day! Bar 2008, Roger always competed well vs Nadal but could never translate that into a win against him at Roland Garros. Never even managed to win more than 1 set per match at FO vs Nadal. Also HOW GOOD WAS FEDERER'S DEFENSE ON THE NEXT POINT AT 30-30!!!!!!!!

Now this is something special! What an awesome thumbnail.

The neutralization of Fed's kick serve by Nadal's lefty return is an aspect overlooked in their match up. 2-2 30-40 that's a BP save against any righty on earth

it only took 18 yrs for this vid in hd quality

Same boring tactics from Rafa. Even on clay he would never hit to Federer’s Forhand.

Thank you for your service 😭

Fed had a real chance to win this one but he completely imploded in the 5th game in the 3rd set

This is those kind of matches I am looking for on KZfaq ! RG final 2006 / 2007 are often uploaded with poor quality ! Good work as always

Probably the most watchable version of this match. Enjoy.🎉

when indian wells masters were relevant

Roger fan but man, what a player Murray was...

Automatic line calling solves all of this

you cut the interview where she was like "I actually dont have a drivers license"

Roger deserved better in 2014 and 2015.

Gotta say, really enjoying your highlight vids. Good work.

I remember watching this on TV at 6am after a night out (I didn't sleep) and crying my eyes out at the end when he lifted the trophy. Biggest delight as a Fed fan
