I know this match talked and discussed so much as great as it is let me share few thoughts and i had questions to all of you. I do believe that RG in 2011 was much different than other years as you clearly can see. Conditions was not the usual RG conditions.
Firstly no matter the conditions, surface, beating Djokovic, who was on a 43 match win streak, is incredible and impressive win by Federer. I read many comments about due to this win Federer is better than Djokovic at their peak on clay. While i know not everyone thinks like this certainly not Djokovic fans I consider Federer on 2011 and 2012 quite good despite he pass his prime. While 2012 match nowhere near as epic as their FO 2011. I feel that match ignored by mostly Federer fans while claiming 2011 win as he beat peak Djokovic for the arguments of he is better...
Does Federer fans think Federer was much worse on 2012 than 2011 on clay hence he lost convincingly? I do feel the difference was more about conditions than one of them being better at 2011 or 2012.
For the record I favour Federer against Djokovic in their primes on clay(RG specially) like 06-07 Fed vs 11-13 Djokovic. But overall Djokovic is obviously much better.
2011 FO in a way it was like Federer Open. Since some of us claim RG turned to DO last few years after night sessions.
