What's with the "RF 2.0"?
If that's the case, then we can be friends with Gilbert again.RF with the new racquet.
Gilbert specifically said Fed 2.0.
he never mentions a racquet.Err correct me if I'm wrong he is saying the highest level of Federer with new racquet came in 2017 not as a whole.
At least that's what I thought
RF 2.0 is the generally accepted term for Federer with new racquet.he never mentions a racquet.
The FED capable of consistently beating Nadal?What's with the "RF 2.0"?
No, he means his highest level ever...and he's rightRF 2.0 is the generally accepted term for Federer with new racquet.
The way I am reading his tweets, BG mistook the guy's tweet to mean best post prime performance, since I have always heard him say Novak early 2016 was Novak's highest level, quite recently during the US .
Good baitThe FED capable of consistently beating Nadal?
I don't know he can have his opinion.No, he means his highest level ever...and he's right
I was at the 2017 IW beat down of Nadal. Fed was in full flight!Good bait
He was even better at AO20He hit his peak in 2019.
maybe, but now thinks AO19 surpassed that levelI don't know he can have his opinion.
But I distinctly remember a discussion kind of thing at USO on YouTube Where Brad specifically said 2016 was Novak's best.
His highest level ever came against Djoker though. He nearly took a set off him at the Australian. That shows he was definitely at his peak.He was even better at AO20
Peak mental toughness vs titans Millman and Sandgren
Fed fan here, but Djokovic's level at AO 2019 and his destruction of a very good Nadal in the final is possibly the highest level I've seen anyone play in 40+ years of watching tennis. So I agree with BG on that.
Fed's level in the 1st 3 months of 2017 was extremely high, with a more attacking mindset and improved backhand. A renaissance, of sorts. But for me, what he was doing at Wimbledon between 2003 and 2007 was just magical, especially on the forehand side.

2.0 being? Since racket change? When was that again?Shut up Bradley.
Actually he said RF 2.0...
It's like saying Djoko played well in the RG final honestly. Both got bamboozled.Bolded: no.
Honestly, these whole highest level statements are getting out of hand anyway mostly because of recency bias.It's like saying Djoko played well in the RG final honestly. Both got bamboozled.
When Fed says he was playing his best in 2017 I realised he hated 2004 Fed more than I did. The man needs help.Honestly, these whole highest level statements are getting out of hand anyway mostly because of recency bias.

He probably realized he ruined Roddick and wanted to erase 2004 from his memory.When Fed says he was playing his best in 2017 I realised he hated 2004 Fed more than I did. The man needs help.
He saw Roddick with mustache on tennis channel and finally realised the gravity of his sins.He probably realized he ruined Roddick and wanted to erase 2004 from his memory.
You must have hated 2005 Fed or 2009 Fed even more.When Fed says he was playing his best in 2017 I realised he hated 2004 Fed more than I did. The man needs help.
I prefer to call him "oversized Fed", or for short, "overfed"RF 2.0 is the generally accepted term for Federer with new racquet.

If he means "with the new racquet" then yeah. Otherwise no.
