roger federer

This is a comparison between Rogers' 19 season where he turned 38 in august and Novaks' 25 where he turned 38 in may which is a fair comparison : Recap Rogers' season: Australian Open – 4th Round loss to Stefanos Tsitsipas Dubai – Winner (def. Tsitsipas in final) Indian Wells – Finalist (lost...

What are people's thoughts on Wilson and an RF02 product? Do we think it will happen at all? If so, I'm guessing 2027-2028 ish. If it happens, will we see a return to PWS? What are people's thoughts/expectations here?

Which one is the best.

Before we even get into how hard the establishment worked for Fedal and against the GOAT...

Sinner faced Nole and Rafa 8 times. Murray faced Fed and Rafa 17 times, which is actually more than Fed’s total top5 matches during the same age span. Thoughts?

Dominic Thiem remains imo the best player born in the 90s. He may not have the same resume as Medvedev, but Thiem faced tougher competition. He also defeated Federer on every surface, although it has to be said it was ******* - but still a great accomplishment. Sadly the two never faced each...

Which of these records will be broken first? Nole 428 weeks @No.1 (next Fedr 310, gap 38%) Rafa 387 weeks @No.2 (next Fedr 218, gap 78%) Fedr 222 weeks @No.3 (next Connors 206, gap 8%) Mury 181 weeks @No.4 (next Becker 144, gap 26%) The Big4 in a nutshell? More detail about Big4...

It has to be Roger - 7 titles, by far the best in the Open Era ahead of Mats Wilander (4). Cincy used to be a place where Federer produced his best tennis, especially later on his career with notable victories in 2014 and 2015 defeating younger opponents such as Djokovic and Murray. For Roger...

I mean just how good was Roger Federer's NEO backhand? I think Robbie Koenig talked about in 2017, saying "in the phanteom of great shots, this backhand is right up there!" It's a shame we never got to see THIS Federer against Djokovic, who of course never bothered to face Federer in his down...

Federer's game is truly missed these days when every other player plays the same way, mostly without finesse, skill and variety. Miami Open is starting this week so I give Roger's 100 best points at the tournament which he 4 times (2005, 2006 2017 & 2019)

To be clear, I'm offering no opinion on this, for I have none. I haven't watched much of Hewitt during his period at number one since...well since it happened. But a fact I assume well known by most on here is that in every slam tournament he entered through 2004 and 2005 — all bar the French...

I recently went back and watched all of Federer's matches in Indian Wells 2012. Apart from a pretty average Kudla, he fought off an inspired Belllucci, dealt with the newcomer Raonic who was already really good, destroyed Del Potro and Nadal in straight sets and then quite easily finished off...

Nole is ahead of Fedal by more than 200 points NOW (2025 AO)—a monumental lead. The gap is far wider than Pete had over Agassi in their era. Absolutely insane dominance! https://www.ultimatetennisstatistics.com/goatList

We can easily agree that 2004-23 is the most fitting 'Big3 Era' concept, dominated by one, two, or all three of them consistently throughout. However, at the core of this Big3 Era, Murray reached significant heights—taking the 2016 YE#1 and 2015 YE#2 rankings. His well defined prime (2008-2016)...

I'm not saying that Carlos Alcaraz is as good as the Big 3 together, let alone one of them, but to me there's no denying that his game resembles different qualities of the Big 3's games, for instance with Djokovic it's the sliding backhand and the drop shot + lob combo, with Federer it's the...

Nole over Fed, vs Fed over Lendl.:unsure: Most Nolefams are still in disbelief, even after someone pointed out 'The Emperor's New Clothes' on Fed. When will people realize that tennis careers can be inflated, and understand how and why? Career vs Top5 T5 Weight vs Top10 T10 Weight vs T11+...

We have 'Nole Slam' = NCYGS It's time for a new term, the 'Djokovic Slam' = 'Career Slam' + 'Career Masters' + Tour Finals + OG. 'Career Masters' = all 9-slot Masters. The 'Djokovic Slam' is a complete ATP big title set. Edit: I agree 'Diamond Slam' is a more fitting term. The 'Venn Diagram'...
