A documentary on the 2004 Tennis Masters Cup. Not the usual grand slam review DVD but with lots of behind-the-screen-cameos.
Here is the official description:

They are all retired now, except Federer, who is still number one in 2018.

@davehotrod5670 6 лет назад

That was almost 13 years ago, all the guys except Federer have ritered since then, but he's still playing on tour and has won 2 majors this year. This is just crazy.

@slamandjam2 6 лет назад

Here we are in 2017. Every single person in this Masters Cup is retired, and Roger won the Australian Open and Wimbledon for his 18th and 19th Grand Slams. The man is undoubtedly the greatest tennis player of all time

@kenny5311 6 лет назад

He was able to defend his title and attain a 20th grand slam to his name. :)

@jamesgarfoyle3188 4 года назад

According to slamandjam2. Federer is currently the greatest, no doubt. But Nadal and Djokovic probably need one good year to surpass him.

@seltaeb9691 9 месяцев назад

Stop Press.. only Djokovic left now & still winning yearly multiple Slams, 23 & counting..

@jorgesolis7897 7 лет назад

13 years later and Federer just won the Australian Open against Nadal! Best player the sport has ever seen!

@srkucrickk 6 лет назад

The GOAT is Nadal who leads Federer 9-3 in Grand Slams (including 4-3 outside clay). Also, Nadal has his Grand Slams more evenly distributed by surface than Federer. Nadal has won at least 2 GS on each surface (grass, hard or clay). Federer only has won 1 GS on clay. With those numbers, Federer can't be seriously considered the GOAT.

@utkuozdemir3111 6 лет назад

Mate, free yourself and enjoy the game

@pocmuky8637 6 лет назад

Marcos Villavicencio lol Roger just won yet another GS, his 20th!!! Where was Nadal? H2H means nothing when Rafa can't make it to a final to challenge Roger except on clay. Give it up. Federer is GOAT.

@tharunjd 6 лет назад

Nadal has lost all matches against Dustin Brown!! Should we judge him by his performance against just one player?

@denisdaly1708 6 лет назад

Marcos Villavicencio you are dreaming. Nadal has 16 slams, 10 French and 6 on the three others. Federer has 8 Wimbledons and 12 other slams. Federer's slams are way way more evenly distributed. Get a grip man. And of course, Federer has been number one for almost double the time Nadal has. This tournament is just below the slams in terms of prestige. Federer has won it 6 times from 10 finals. Nadal has never won it.

@mordhaine 10 лет назад

That doesn't mean he was performing at the same level as 2004-2007. It's a testament to his greatness that he was still competitive on tour after 2007 despite all his main rivals being 5 years younger than him.

@callum786 9 лет назад

If Federer was not around then, then it is fair to say that the rest of these guys would have allot more GS's. No one could match him then came along Rafa and Djokavic.

@telmolicious Год назад

@Gokubleach09 Eh..

@Kyle27ish 7 лет назад

well I was born in 1987 and many would say that I associate with the Rafa/Djokovic era but I've been watching tennis ever since 1993 and then eventually found a long term tennis idol in Roger when he beat Sampras in Wimbledon 2001, time has flown and its 2017 and we're still going strong. Thanks Rog its been an amazing ride and I don't want it to end.

@Frozen__Fire 6 лет назад

fast forward many years, Federer is still on top. Still winning Grand slams. And ... no longer a might be, but definitely the greatest player the sport has ever seen.

@singhrno1 9 лет назад

all these guys from '04 won grand slams... federer nadal and djokovic have put a stranglehold on the slams now with a few exceptions

@drkvenger 12 лет назад

This was Roger at his most intimidating and dominant form then. And 8 years later, Roger is winning against the best players of the current generation - collecting 17 slams, and regaining the world #1 ranking. I don't think he knows the meaning of past your prime. He may well be winning slams into his mid thirties.

yes it is ,that smart scheduling meant he keep his body fresh meaning his got the most out of his physical prime that is why at 31 last yr he was able to do what he did but now he has now peaked physically and will only decline however he hasnt lost too much speed. plus his superior court positioning means he doesnt do much defending that good serving, all court skill, and vast experience will kee p around the top for a while. there aren't many guys with rogers skills set.
