Gaudio vs Coria 2004 Men's final | Roland-Garros Classic Match 

Que partido tan memorable en la vida de los argentinos.. al menos los que nos despertamos esa mañana a ver este partido increíble, más pasan los años y más épico se ve..

20 years has passed😮 its feels like yesterday when I watched this game live

This will be my favourite Roland Garros final forever.

What makes it worse for Coria is this was the last year that roland garros was up for grabs

It feels like this match combined with the 2005 Rome final loss against Nadal just completely broke Coria's spirit. He was never the same after.

It's very difficult to maintain that same level of play when you win a set 6-0. Coria was perturbed that he lost 3 games in the second and Gaudio didn't lay down. Amazing heart from Gaudio to stick in there and his winning speech if I can remember was really a tear jerker.

Este es el partido que demuestra que el tenis es el deporte que mejor representa lo que es la vida misma: NUNCA hay que dar por descontado ningún desenlace hasta que la pelota del match point pica dos veces.

It is insane who would have thought that from next year onwards there will come a guy who will change the history of this event. Supreme domination this will never be repeated again mark my words.

Roland varroa is officially the first tournament that has learned how to post highlights

If Gaudio's RG 2004 doesn't deserve a movie, I don't know what does...

One of the greatest comebacks ever

Inolvidable final Gaudio-Coria,orgullosos los Argentinos de ver una final de Grand Slam,celeste y blanco y la frutilla del postre el gran Willy,dandole la copa y sacandose,la foto con los dos,ese dia gano el TENIS ARGENTINOOO!!!!! Pasaron 20 años de eso,se extraña esa legion,saludos.

20 Roland-Garros was played since this final. And only 4 others guys won it. 👀

La pecheada mas grande en la historia del tenis, si estas lesionado no te podes mover!!, en el quinto set Coria estaba nuevo inentendible su personaje se lo termino comiendo completamente.

Primer partido completo de tenis que vi en mi vida.

I remember this match. Was really pulling for Coria. Totally dominated first 2 sets and took the gas off the pedal. Huge upset by Gaudio. Thanks for posting Roland Garros!

Vraiment extraordinaire la fin toucher les mains des spectateurs, partir vers son team et surtout la remise de la coupe, émotions ❤

Last year before Nadal Garros has started 😀😀👍👍

La mejor final de todos los tiempos. Grande Gato!

que partidazo!!! no recordaba que coria tuvo match points a favor. el gato mereció ganar porque nunca se rindió.

Talento + Reves a una mano = Gastón Gaudio 👌😉

Surprenant et magnifique de le voir sourire et pouffer de rire à la toute fin du 5e set, après un comeback pareil, comme s'il n'en revenait pas lui-même de ce parcours et de ce scénario. Je me souviens encore de l'explosion de joie qui a suivi sa victoire. Un de mes meilleurs souvenir de tennis !

Crazy to think this was truly the last great French Open Final. Only French Open final to have gone 5 sets this century until Djokovic-Tsitsipas in 21’

One of the greatest grand slam finals ever!

That was sad. Coria was one ball away. The next year, Rafa finished his career beating him in close matches at Mt Carlo and Rome.

Greatest choke of all time

Good day, I'm sorry if I'm bothering you. Thank you very much for all the beautiful tennis matches, please plan to include more beautiful archive matches. Thank you very much in advance for everything that will be possible to see. Have a great time and above all, I wish you good health Best regards Dominik :)

I never really saw Coria play. I did see highlights of Nadal v. Coria in Roma. That was a thrilling match from start to finish. Coria moves the ball really well and is fast on the court. I think Gaudio got lucky with this win. 2005 begins with the Nadal domination of Roland Garros. There will be a 15th Roland Garros title.

one of the best games i ever watched live. definately one of the most memorable come backs and chokes in sports history. I was so happy for Gaudio. dont know why but i just couldnt digest Coria.

Gastón Gaudio está en el top 3 de mejor revés a una mano 💪🙌👏 era un placer verlo jugar

Que ça fait du bien de revoir ces matchs, cette finale était incroyable je m en souviens très bien j étais ce jour la en interclubs et je regarderais un œil, priorité soutenir mon équipe, heureusement sur eurosport le lendemain j avais pu tout regardé ❤❤❤😄🎾 merciiii pour cette vidéo

The best Roland Garros match ever!

Dear roland garros channel ! It would be much appreciated if you could upload some classic extended highlights on ytb because it is really missing ! So many legendary matches like Federer djokovic 2011 semi final or Nadal djokovic 2021 semi final to only pick 2 need to be uploaded !

Una de las mejores finales de Gram Slam en la historia moderna,merece una película veinte años después

Gosh how was this 20 years ago? Early 2000s tennis feels like ancient history.

Отлично помню. Поставил на Гаудио и попрощался со ставкой. Но развернулось счастливо для Гастона и меня

La mejor final de la historia.

Best RG final ever!

Coria that day was a real fighter. Just missed it. So sorry for him.

I played a recreational tennis game at the time this match was played. At the tennis centre I remember seeing on a small tv that Gaudio was way behind before I went on court. Coming off the court one hour later I expected the match to be over. However, as I walked past the tv again I realised they were in the fourth set with Coria limping around. It is a classic.

I remember this final, Coria was the overwhelming favorite and Gaudio came out of nowhere to win it. Coria won the next year but then he got banned for his suppliments 😢

Before the Rafael Nadal Era began

Que alguien me diga porque estaba esa persona sentada en la mitad de la cancha pegada a la red?? mira si le pegaban un pelotazo jaja

Partidazo 🇦🇷👏🏻

Coria never recuperated after this loss, it was painful on many levels

The biggest choke in Grand Slam finals history.

Claramente el que mejor jugó está final, por lejos, fue Coria. Perdió por 2 pelotas anchas y también por el corazón de Gaudio que nunca se dio por vencido.

Hermoso revés Gaudio.

FINAL MÍTICA PARA NUESTRO PAÍS, 1RA Y ÚNICA VEZ HASTA AHORA QUE ARGENTINA TUVO 2 FINALISTAS DE UN GRAND SLAM. Y EL PROPIO VILAS ENTREGANDO EL TROFEO, PARA COLOCAR LA FRUTILLA DEL POSTRE.

This is the real French open Hate this bs night courts and indoors nonsense that we have since 2020

Emocionante. Que revés el gato. Las sacaba de la galera el mago eh.

Coria❤❤❤

Soy chileno Pero q hazaña la de Gaudio

Very nice💪

Muchos celebramos que haya ganado el Gato, sabiendo que esa era su única oportunidad y creyendo que Coria lo ganaría en el futuro. Nadie imaginaba que iba a aparecer un tal Nadal y que a la vez Coria iba a decaer tanto su nivel y terminar su carrera tan prontamente

22:10 en ese preciso momento argentina pudo haber tenido un 1 del mundo

Que reves el de Gaudio!

El calambre que tuviste te condiciono,, creo en mi opinion que la historia quizas era otra,,, mis respetos gaudio... exelente jugador..

Sos un crack guille... sinceramente todos mis respetos a gaudio,, pero fuiste superior en esa final,, la verdad q sos mi idolo en el tenis, sos grande ..

Choking match points in slam before Federer made a thing out of it 😅

Да это был неожиданный финал...несмотря на то что они грунтовики!

Coria was serving at 4-3 in the 5th and then didn’t hold once for the rest of the match

Gaston Gaudio--The last man to win RG before the big 3 and Wawrinka monopolise it

la caída de Coria fue en el Tercer Set cuando estaban 4-4, 40-15 a favor de Coria en su servicio. Ahi Coria ataco bien solo que Gaudio la salvo y ahi le volteo el partido.

they vanished after this and Nadal took over.

Last match in which Roland Garros was considered inferior tournament

El reves del Gato Gaudio el mejor de toda la historia del tenis Argentino

Dos match point tuviste Coria, El gato te aplasto. Grande Gato. Mas fuerte mentalmente el gato

Is there still a possibility of seeing tennis matches without 5th set tiebreak like this one?

Alguien me podría explicar, qué le pasó a Coria ?

12:23 el estadio hace "la ola", y el partido cambio radicalmente lo mismo paso en el futbol en la final del mundo catar 2022 la gente empezo a gritar "ole" y otamendi le hizo el penal a francia y cambio el partido

Es increíble como el mago perdió esa final.

This match completely destroyed Coria’s career…

Argentina campeon de toda la wea en esa epoca❤

Последний РГ перед пришествием богов тенниса и короля грунта.

i felt sorry for coria he would have won easyly wiuth no injury. great match

Most odd and completely strange final for me.

El revé de Gaudio cerca a la perfección. Que pena que ahora casi todos jueguen a dos manos, parece otro deporte.

La pechada mas grande de la historia eel tenis

If Coria won this match, he would have qualified as number 1 of the Ranking.....for losing he was N° 3....

Back when there was real clay court tennis ❤️

why does it seem like they hit with such little power?

13:53 acá cuando le abre los brazos jaja

El GATO NOMAAAA!!!

Last Ana ya ali

Worst GS final till that Zverev Thiem chokefest.

Que buena que estaba la novia de Coria

Coria merecía ganarlo!!!!

Debería haberlo ganado Coria. Pero en el tenis no hay merecimientos

Que mala suerte la de Coria con las lesiones

Min essa zin sumi Ana Ali yaya

This explains why Coria retired.

Still dont know how Coria lost this match

Ana Al daodio ya 2

Estando Coria lesionado estaba nivelado ... muy superior Coria estando bien

Weirdest final ever…

Big moment😂

Незаслуженно

No wonder Guillermo Coria has no Grand Slam Singles title that could highlight his whole career resume as one of the most talented professional tennis player ever to grace the tennis court, because his inability to maintain his composure and stay mentally tough under presssure for long gruelling hours of play is his biggest downfall. I don't know if it's 💯 just the lack of concentration [because that doesnt make sense to someone who has the ability to focus and dictating the majority of the rallies point by point, from the beginning to the end as soon as they realise the excellent level of their performance on the given day will boosts more belief and self confidence rather than being too carried away by the outcome of winning a little too much.] It seems to me though that mentally speaking he is probably just like most of us on average, or slightly weaker in average standard. Guillermo Coria had choked so bad during such a big time in this match, his talent and capability to play such an outstanding performance against his other opponent is never been the biggest question mark by many, whether the opponent's ranking is higher or lower than him. He is perhaps known for his tennis skills and sickening style of play especially on clay, he can even defeat some of his opponents who has one or more slams with a convincing victory at any given day especially on his fav clay courts, and yet somehow once he doesnt have to play as an underdog, or maybe at some POINT of a crucial match, his winning mindset can be distracted by an underdog who plays really poorly at first thinking that the initial high respect towards an opponent has waned down as the match progress, from the feeling of being highly impressed and amazed by his opponent's achievement for reaching the final stage against all odds, to the thought of disbelief and doubting his opponent's skill and capability that propelled Gaudio's RG 2004 JOURNEY TO THE FINAL. He just failed to fight his own demon mentally, i just could not help myself to pointing out that middle set moments where he still gained majority of the momentum before letting HIS fierce rival and OWN compatriot to control the final sets and winning the match. Part of the reason Guillermo Coria has himself choked here is also due to the fact that their hostile relationship with one another may have had contributed by his loss to remain focus as he initially thought he is doing everything right during the match UNTIL he let his conscience slips little by little as the match went on a lot longer than expected. What a huge loss, thanks to his arrogance and over confidence. You may have all the biggest weapons in tennis as your best trademark of arsenal, but if you dont have a strong will to win, if you couldn't endure the intense amount of high pressure in those critical moments,if there is lack of self belief, and if somehow you couldnt control your own fear and keep the same composure to play your shot without worrying that it will miss, then there is A very little chance for you to become a slam champion. No matter how big and complete it is when people talk about the gamestyle OF your tennis.
