Best Sets Federer has Played

[Devin]

What do you think the best sets that Federer has played are?

Here were some ideas:

1st set of 2004 USO final vs. Hewitt
3rd set of 2004 USO final vs. Hewitt
1st set of 2003 TMC final vs. Agassi (Agassi was playing pretty well)
2nd set of 2007 AO SF vs. Roddick
4th set of 2006 Rome final vs. Nadal
1st set of 2006 Rome final vs. Nadal (Nadal was actually playing pretty well)
3rd set of 2004 AO 4R vs. Hewitt (this was the one with the insane passing shot game I think)
1st set of 2004 Hamburg SF vs. Hewitt
3rd set of 2007 Hamburg final vs. Nadal
1st set of 2004 TMC SF vs. Safin
1st set of 2004 TMC final vs. Hewitt
1st set of 2006 USO final vs. Roddick
1st set of 2009 FO final vs. Soderling
2nd set of 2003 Wimbledon SF vs. Roddick
2nd set of 2003 Wimbledon final vs. Philippoussis
1st set of 2006 TMC final vs. Blake

Any other ideas?

2006 French Open Final vs Nadal (1st Set) also comes to mind along with your ideas.

His destruction of Blake at WTF stands out to me.

Dubai 2005 2nd set vs Agassi
YEC 2011 RR 2nd set vs Nadal
3rd set of Wimbledon 2003 SF vs Roddick
4th set of USO 2006 final vs Roddick ( was better than the 1st set from what I remember)
1st and 3rd set of Wimbledon 2004 QF vs Hewitt (breadstick and bagel)
cincy 12 bagel 1st set vs djokovic
2nd set of TMC 2004 final vs hewitt - on the same level as the first set
1st set of FO 2010 QF vs Soderling
1st set of USO 2009 QF vs Soderling (Soderling was struggling with the wind and Federer played like there was no wind)

2007 AO semifinal 2nd set against Roddick. I have never seen anyone else ever be in that kind of a zone. Federer knew where Roddick was going to hit it before Roddick hit the ball, every shot Federer hit was perfectly timed and perfectly placed. Absolutely absurd level:

5th set Roddick Wimby 09 and even 5th Nadal 08

you mean 5th set Nadal 07, right ?
