The game and focus of Federer in this tournament was amazing. Never seen him play so smooth and confident.

2:34 that was the smoothest looking racket destruction I have ever seen 😅

Tennis match-ups are so interesting. Fed has no trouble with Wawrinka. Fed's variation just throws Stan's game in for a loop. At the same time, Stan is the vaccine against Novak's game. Novak loves his insane angles and endless rallies. Peak Wawrinka is one of the few players who can out-angle, out-rally and out-hit Peak Novak. Stan defeating Novak at the French Open Final is one of the most beautiful matches I've ever seen.

There has never been one like him. There were likely not be anyone else. Maybe someone may win more slams but the grace with which Federer plays will never be matched.

2:05 The most creative volley placement ever 🔥

It's amazing to find three single-handed backhand players among the last four.

The most crucial break of the match in 5th set is not shown... what's the point of such highlights

[andresitofvg]

That grand slam was the best win in majors for Roger. He played incredible the whole tournament and defeated Nadal in the final. Unforgettable!

[TheAudioman]

Amazing heart from Stan here. Wasn’t fully fit enough to blast away like he normally does, but just enough heart in there to take it the distance. Respect

*Two of the best one-handed backhanders playing it out*

[matteobettini]

An excellent match from two players who are among the greatest ever and whose backhands are the best in the Atp. A mere joy to look at (personally I've always enyojed Stan, even if I consider Federer one of the three best tennis players of all times).

That View on Point 5:01 is from out of this world!!

One handed backhand Duel ! This is amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[vidhead]

Wawrinka's backhand gets a lot of praise, but his footwork is amazing too!

[squeedum]

Roger's muted, respectful celebration says so much. #destiny #legend

[hoangle]

two great single back hand players of all time

[Shankar-Bhaskar]

Great highlights & I especially love the match summary that is included in the end, most other highlights generally don't include that.

[sthoyyeti]

wawarinka has a lot of power into his shots. FedEx has used all his skill and class to edge pass him. great match but unlucky wawarinka!
