Roger Federer vs Robin Söderling Highlights | French Open 2009 Men's Final | Eurosport 

The most important tournament of Federer's career. Matching Sampras' record, winning your first French Open, and completing the career grand slam all at the same tournament is astonishing.

most important match of Federer's career

Talk about well deserved. The match with Haas was 2 sets to love 4-3 haas about to break serve. Then Fed just woke up and worked even harder excellent Victory...

11 years later and the guy is still playing in the Top 3 , lol

Super tournois de R.Federer Apres avoir battu tommy hass en 5 set / Del potro / et soderling en finale. Il a vraiment mérité ce titre la.

I can't even stress how important this tournament was for Roger. It was the one missing from his impeccable trophy collection, the one that seemed impossible for him, not because he sucked ('cause he sure didn't), but because of a certain someone who happens to be the undisputed King of Clay, Mr. Rafael Nadal. 2009 was really a year of redeem for Roger, he came from painful losses against Nadal at AO and Djokovic (he even smashed his racket and was actually booed), it seemed he was never going to be the same. But then, the miracle happened, Nadal was beaten at RG. Roger had to take his chance, against Haas, who made him suffer a lot, he was about to lose, but then inspiration came and Roger didn't waste his oportunity. Then came this final which saw Roger back on top again, completing his Career Grand Slam and showing you can come up from the ashes (BTW, he went on to win Wimbledon again the next month). So inspiring.

Fed At the net:“ i will forever be in your debt robin....“

Amazing win by the maestro! It is interesting. Djokovic can go on and win maybe 30 GS titels, and nobody will care. It will always be Federers career, which will be remembered as the greatest 😀

Best moments, no corona, no bs, just tennis

Watching this after hearing the news of Federer retiring. One more time, maestro!

Game was amazing.Well done Roger 👏🏆🎉❤️

He can thank Soderling for playing a godlike match against Nadal and knocking him out.

🎾🇨🇭😍❤️ Que d émotions merciiiiii le maître

Such emotion when he won!!!

Super magnifique roger federer

Best day of my life

lovely nike kit, one of his best

match en entier svp ?

Legend ❤

Finally at 27 he won all 4.

Bravo

Special thanks to Soderling for beating Rafa and letting RF to win his 1st RG title

Everyone has sentiments and nadal never wore dark pink again in a match!!

9:57 thats why djokovic and nadal surpassed his grand slam record !

Soderling approach shots really let him down

La première de Fédérer. Sur Rolland Garros.

You can thank Soderling for Federers first (and only win) at Roland Garros!

What was Soderling thinking, going to the net all the time with such weak approaches? Fed king.

Goat

Nadal destroyed this man year after year in Paris, this was the best day of Federers tennis career. Nowadays it is nearly impossible to win the french open, you have to beat Djokovic and Nadal or Thiem and Nadal, that is crazy!!!!

❤️

RG is RG, not "french open". It has a real personal name. You'd not call Wimbledon the "english open" so why doin' it for RG ??

Roger and Steffi Graf the best ❤❤❤

he also beat nadal at madrid on clay

He owes soderling a lot for beating nadal

The one and only RG Title😂

Time to double up!

He couldve EASILY won all 4 slams in 2009, he pretty much had it in his bag. Choked to Nadal in AO and to Delpo in USO

Big respect & thanks to soderling for beating Nadal in the semi final which granted Federer his most important title of his magnificent career

This pretty much proves that without Nadal, Federer would have won 1 or 2 Calendar Grand Slam... In 2006 and 2007, he wins AO, W and USO, only losing the FO final to Nadal. Nadal and Djoko did 3 out of 4 but either didn't reach the final of the 4th, or in Djoko's 2021 case lost to a non-Big 4. Only Federer achieved 2 near-Slam during the height of the Big 4 era.

Never will there be another so balletic as Federer thankful to Jesus for this time God bless u Federer thank u

And he knew exactly that he will never win that trophy again

another proof that he won the RG title due to lucky circumstances, but that's Federer....

He deserved to carry roland garros, how Roger's career ends without achieving the four grand slam

That stare at 1:00 Federer thinking why didn't soderling reach that easy ball? Expecting a great match after Nadal/Soderling...maybe disappointed, maybe suspecting something about his rival

Is this your "GOAT" ??? ONE AND ONLY GOAT: NOLEEE, SERBIAAAAA !!!!!!!!!!!

Do it again fed ,today maybe the last chance to win it.

Soderling was more motivate against Nadal.

Poor Söderling he couldn't get how he wanted... Firat he wins over Nadal and the. Looses the final against Federer.. The year After he wins over Federer and looses against Nadal in the final 😅

How tf do you beat Nadal and choke against Federer

Federer should bow down and kiss Soderling’s feet every time he meets him cuz without him beating Nadal he would never win RG 😅😅

Federer is one lucky guy. Soderling beating Nadal, kept federer in the goat debate. Imagine winning 19 slams but not completing the career slam

Federer probably bribed Soderling here with 3 times the prize money. Soderling didn’t hit with even 10% of what he did against Nadal.

Nole Goat

Only won it because Nadal was out.

Nole retired Roger "40-15" Federer 😂😅

Federer luckiest man ever. LOL. thats why Novak is the GOAT, he had to beat NADAL twice.
