Federers Best Match ever

joemanblues · 05-08-2008, 05:32 PM

So we have all seen the racquet master do his thing and some incredible shots. The question is what do you think is the one match that he has been his most flawless in, and you know what I'm talking about its when a player is in the zone and shooting winners from every part constantly. I have seen to many clips of Federer and cannot decide if he is just always in the zone or if he is never in the zone and is just that good that he need not be in said zone.

Federer - Roddick in the AO 07
Federer - Gaudio in the TMS 04? (6/0 6/0)

'04 US Open vs Hewitt in the finals. First set was godly

Arafel · 05-08-2008, 05:42 PM

Against Roddick in the AO 2007, Fed could do absolutely no wrong. That is the best I've ever seen him play.

Runner up is the 04 US final against Hewitt.

i still got that match on tape, it was ridiculous, federer was crunching winners everywhere

drakulie · 05-08-2008, 05:45 PM

Some great choices so far.

I would say the best I have seen him play is when he beat Roddick in Wimbledon (2004).

Roddick was on fire, and Fed was abel to hold him off, and blast ungodly fh's all over the place.

Fed-Hewitt 2004 USO final ,Fed-Agassi 2003 TMC final ,Fed-Roddick 2007 AO SF and Fed-Hewitt 2005 Indian Wells final.If I could only pick one it would be 2004 USO final when he beat Hewitt,double bageling an inform Hewitt was just magic.

The 2004 US Open Final between Federer and Hewitt come to mind.

Funny, I've always thought that Roddick makes everyone look better when he plays. :P

Not hating on Roddick, but his stellar track record against Fed-ex says otherwise.

2004 US Open final. He was moving like a ghost, looked like he was just strolling, but covering the whole court like it was nothing. Hitting shot hard. I remember Hewitt had break point, and Federer served 3 aces in all different parts of the box to deny the feisty Australian yet another chance to make in roads during the match.

SF Australian Open 2007. It wasn't that Roddick was playing badly, it was that he could do nothing to contend with the Swiss maestro seeking his 3rd Australian Open. The champion Federer was in sublime form on serve, forehand and backhand. In the second set, Federer performed a highlight reel in just one game to break Roddick's bamboozled serve. The break of serve featured the famous overhead to running backhand flick winner. A performance for the ages indeed.

Fed vs. Nadal Wimbly 2007

Even though federer lost i think its his match against Nadal that was a 5 hour epic in Rome on clay

Agree completely, the way Fed played in those matches was just it out of this world.

HyperHorse · 05-08-2008, 11:47 PM

2005 AO(4th round i think) & US Open(final), Against Agassi.
Standard of play was a lot higher than against Hewitt.
Oh and 2004 Quarters @ Wimbledon against Hewitt.
