Beautiful forehand work from Federer. While it's just slightly behind the level of the 2004 USO final, he was dictating well with the forehand, building the points, hitting winners, etc. When Federer's forehand is like this, few can even hold their ground at the baseline.
@abmk @metsman @NatF (don't know who else to ping after this) You guys may have found this before me, but nobody posted it before and it seems to be unavailable on YouTube, but here it is if you guys are interested.
Also, I found some other highlights for other great matches here: https://tt.tennis-warehouse.com/ind...ee-this-type-of-tennis-anymore-part-2.620397/ , but this deserves its own thread IMO. That thread has Wimbledon 2003 final vs. Philippoussis highlights and highlights for Federer's TMC 2003 RR match against Agassi.
