If you could have changed the result one match. Which match will it be

Hmm...

Agassi 2005 USO Final
or
Agassi 2002 USO Final
or
Agassi 2004 USO SF as I think he would've beaten Hewitt in the final--just wanted to see him win this tournament one more time.
Not a big Roddick fan but, like many others, wanted to see him get WB 2009.
Hard to feel bad for Federer since he's won so much and finally completed career GS a few years ago.

Oops, I meant 2004 USO QF...
 
2006 french open because Federer could have the Grand slam ( 4 majors in the same calender year )

wimbledon 2008 + Australian open 2009 + Rolland Garros 2011

As the title suggests which result would you change.

I would change 2009 Wimbledon final because I think Andy deserves another slam and that was the closest he had gone to beat Fed in a GS

Nice thread

This might sound stupid, but being a hardcore Fedfan i would change the outcome of either the Wimby final 2008 vs Rafael OR the USO 2009 vs DelPo
 
2004 wimbledon, roddick would have become #1 player during 2004 most likely and god knows what would have happened.

as a roddick fan, i always wonder what if that rain delay never happened

It's Youzhny. :)

Hewitt Del Potro was a classic. I didn't think that Hewitt would beat Del Potro but was happy to be proven wrong. :)

I knew there was an H somewhere in there.

Del Potro has a bit of a matchup issue with Hewitt; he can't handle his slice very well and he apparently idolised Hewitt as a child, perhaps deep down he doesn't want to beat Hewitt? Hewitt manhandled Del Potro in the 2013 Kooyong final (admittedly only a warmup exhibition but still notable).
 
As a Murray fan.

The 2013 Australian Open final.
Murray to win 7-6 6-7 6-4 6-4

That one kinda feels like the one that got away.

I agree with you. Murray was playing great in the first 2 sets and should have gone 2 sets up. The commentators agreed because one of them said it looked as if Murray was going to win the match in straight sets. Then after he lost the 2nd set set tie-break he stopped moving and quickly faded away. He had a very nasty blister on his foot which the camera zoomed in on and which he had treatment for during a changeover so that was obviously a factor. But it was a disappointing second half to the match and one which I felt Murray had had real chances to win!
 
I would say the match between Wawrinka and Nole in AO 2013. At 4-4 in the 5th set, Nole was facing a break point and Wawrinaka hit a fh bullet that caught the line but the line judge call it out. Nole was unable to return the shot(which would have Stan serving for the match) but end up winning the point since Stan didn't challenge. That was the turning point of the match because later Stan was running out of fume and needed treatment to his upper leg muscles.

That match could have gone Wawrinka way and he could have won the AO that year.
 
Very easy; 2012 RG final.

It would have given Novak a Carreer Slam, a non-calendar year Grand Slam, and a Grand Rafa Slam.

And another one, Soderling/Gonzalez SF of the french open.
I wish Gonzalez could have played a final at the french open, would have been an interesting final against Federer.
 
RG 2011 Final. Best chance for Fed aside from the 2006 final to win RG by beating Nadal. The first three sets were very close but it was not meant to be.

Another choice would be the AO09 final, Roger and Rafa played like they were aliens and IMO, it is the greatest tennis ever displayed and it was out of this world, so it would have been amazing for Federer to stop the bleeding against Nadal and win that one.
 
+1 for Tsonga AO 2008

and I would add Ferrer - Murray / Miami 2013

It was not a grand slam but I felt depressed for David to lose this final for 2 centimeters....
 
The Nadal-Wawrinka WTF 2013 London match. That match was painful to watch. Wawrinka could have won that match, IMO. It hurts.

Another one would be the 2009 FO Nadal-Soderling match. What a terrible and sad match. Soderling outplayed Nadal.

Not at all. Every Nadal's loss against big hitters is highly enjoyable, it's just funny that Rafa can't do nothing when big guys play their best tennis. :lol: Djokovic and Federer are way more versatile than Nadal.

Lol lots of slams taken from Novak. Why. Especially bolded statement is ridiculous now when he has two. Does it still feel weird?
 
2009 AO to Federer.

Now instead his tears would be the second time he cried after winning the AO, which would really kill the idiotic anti-Federites. Nastall loses his only AO title to this point, and the first time he'd have beaten Federer in a slam off clay would then be the 2012 AO, when Federer was 30. Federer would have 5 AO titles, the most in the open era.

Precisely, something just irks me about Novak winning Wimbledon, the USO loss wasn't 1/4th as bad for me, it just didn't feel right for him to win there.
