I think partly because courts and the balls have changed so the balls bounce much higher than Federer's ideal contact point. There's also the fact that Federer ever since he damaged his back does not really lean much into his shots.

@@s.l5787 The effectiveness of Federer's forehand decreased entirely because he made significant adjustments to his form beginning in early 2007. Compare his swing over time since 2007 to his swing in 2006 and earlier. It looks like an entirely different forehand and did not change for the better.

@@s.l5787 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IIqd2SbU1OE.html You can see how his forehand changes from 2002 to 2008 here. The length of the swing is noticeably shortened, becomes less fluid, and relies more on timing. The result is a reduction in margin for error and power. The change continues from 2008 on. His forehand was significantly more reliable and formidable before 2007.
@ertugrulkorpinar51
@ertugrulkorpinar51 4 года назад
jwu7688 The most obvious outcome is that Federer’s backswing has become shorter over time. Federer’s hand drops into a lower position earlier, and he keeps the racquet head closer to his body. This means as he continues back behind the body the backswing reduces in size. Larger backswings for example The longer the racquet is accelerating, the faster it is going when it reaches contact. Acceleration while changing direction happens on a curve. Longer backswings allow a smoother stroke path, which means more reliable timing and better biomechanics.

@Silk1970
@Silk1970 3 года назад
To put this match into the context at the time, Lleyton Hewitt had beaten Roger in Davis Cup in Melbourne at the end of 2003 in an epic 5 setter and he had his chances when losing to Roger in the 2004 Australian Open. He got a set off Roger at Winbledon too and had played well in the US hardcourt swing leading up to the US Open, as well as not dropping a set en route to the final. So I had talked myself into thinking that he might be able to challenge Roger as the US Open was on the best surface for Lleyton. Then Roger hit that cracking forehand winner off a standard Lleyton rally ball to start the match and I went to myself "Who are you fuc**** kidding?! He's got no chance!"

And even though Fed was maybe more talented than a young Djokovic, he had a habit of playing too conservative in the big points and tiebreaks against Novak, which is why Novak eventually eclipsed him.

Federer's level from 2004 to 2007 or so was some of the highest level the sport has seen. His forehand was arguably the best shot in tennis in those years. His forehand from about 2008 or so was less explosive. I remember really feeling this way watching the Wimbledon final between him and Nadal in 2008 compared to the 2007 final.

One of the greatest performances by Roger. If not THE PERFORMANCE. I don't see how anyone could beat him while playing like this. The quality and variaty of the shotmaking produced was just overwhelming. Hewitt was playing like Hewitt. Very consistent, quick player, solid, with great criteria and fantastic sense of the court. He entered the final without having lost a set. And then he got erased, reduced to a mere spectator. Against Rafa or Novak, the score would have been more even. Simply because Roger was looking for the killing winner practically in every shot, something that Rafa and Novak usually don't do. And he wouldn't miss that night. The match went quickly. The match was embarrasing for Lleyton. Probably the highest level of tennis from a player the world has ever witnessed (there are many other contenders, obviously), that september 12th 2004.

Laughable that people think he should retire. He's not only still playing at a high level, he's beating the best a lot of the time, including Djokovic at the ATP Finals last year. He makes deep runs and is a threat to win every tournament he enters. Still fights his ass off too when he's down. His comebacks vs. Millman and Sandgren in five-set thrillers this year were absolutely epic. Makes me wonder how many lives he's enhanced, how many people he's entertained, how many human beings he's inspired, over his entire career, across the globe? The number has to be astronomical.

Not to take anything away from Fed but Hewitt was giving Fed too many short balls and rarely attacking. That's one of the reasons why Fed looked so invincible when they met after 2004. So, if we, for instance, take Djokovic as an example, not only did the guy rarely give any short balls but he also managed to attack/counter attack. Nole would not allow Roger to get away with the second set like he did here against Lleyton.

Very high quality hits after hits- just no missed, no disappointed from Roger. The served beyond among pro players- ACE(s) mostly... The one hand back hand winners another weapon.

@Mr Twister Wimbledon was slowed in 2001 first, but it was rainy so didn't make any difference, and Federer beat Sampras there, so he is a very good fast court player. Wimbledon was again slowed around 2008. ESPN even showed a serve of Federer with similar trajectories and same speed in 2003 and 2008 and there was almost 15mph difference, 49 to 64 or 68 I guess.

Federer's obviously incredible here, but it's a little presumptuous to say he would destroy prime Djokovic and Nadal simply because he destroyed Hewitt. Tennis is all about match-ups, we know, and Hewitt didn't have the ability to take time away from Federer in the way those guys can; just look at how much time Fed has to wind up on the forehand and backhand, because Hewitt's balls not only land just past the service box but have no speed or weight of shot. Having said that, it's fun to watch these kind of beatdowns from time to time, just to remind yourself how much better the Big 3 are than everyone else this century.

The game changes here in historical terms. No longer is having the game of a Hewitt, Roddick, Ferrero enough to win grand slams or be world no.1. The golden age has begun. The bar has been raised considerably to a height few can even compete at. For years to come, Federer will monopolise the slams on grass and hardcourt, and Nadal on clay, taking tennis (and perhaps sport) to a new level. Their rivalry will become one for the ages.

Classic Swiss maestro in control of every point, moving without the ball, always thinking of the shot ahead, this is why he was untouchable for about 6/7 years. He is the reason Nadal and Djokovic elevated. Anyone who wants to argue he played in a weak league just need to watch matches like these to see how he outclassed great players! Ps. Federer is one of the best front runners ever, once he built a lead he always got a huge head of steam.

@v R Fed was 16-18 vs Rafa everywhere but Roland Garros. As I said, he did fine H2H vs Rafa. Rafa is the greatest ever at Roland Garros. Probably number 1 on clay overall. On any other surface, Fed is the favorite. Those H2H matches were largely played more in Rafa's prime vs Fed's. Fed is 23-27 all-time vs Djokovic. As I said, I am a Novak fan overall. However prime for prime, most of those matches probably favor Novak in that area. If you choose to respond to me again, talk to me with a little more respect.

Federer obviously overpowering Hewitt but you can already see the backhand becoming a liability later in Fed's career when his movement wouldn't allow him anymore to get around the backhand so much.
