Roger Federer vs Stan Wawrinka - Quarterfinals Highlights | Roland-Garros 2019 

Brilliant! My compliments!

@@fabiomassimoferraro3587 Grazie mille.

At least his game will be remembered, not like Murray's

@Oliver McCall What are you smoking? Master 1,000 titles --- Murray 14, Stan 1 World Tour Finals titles-- Murray 1, Stan 0 OG Medals singles-- Murray 2, Stan 0 Weeks at number 1--- Murray 41, Stan 0 Grand Slam titles-- Murray 3, Stan 3 Grand Slam finals--- Murray 11, Stan 4 As you can see, this is not even close and Murray is a much superior player.

@@jacobschmidt2709 Ummmm Stan Wawrinka also has 3 majors.

but Rafa seems to be in peak form and will be desperate to win this title, or he will surely doubt he can ever match Federer's main records.

Man I like Stan. Glad seems to be basically back after injury. I'd love it if he completed the career grand slam with Wimbledon but it doesnt seems to be his surface. Novak seems like the favourite for Wimbledon.

@@nicktrousers Ya, Stan is Awesome. For me, Federer is the clear favourite for Wimbledon. Every year, bar 2008, that Federer has made it this far in the French, he has won Wimbledon. I think that is the main reason he played the French this year, to keep him match sharp. Federer is playing much better in 2019 than in 2018.

Yeah, that was a beauty. Even Stan acknowledged it with a thumbs up.

Hey, Python, how are you?

Check France TV sport channel

Although the video is laggy, looks like a 15 FPS or something lol

Lol.. finally towards the end of the tournament. From Monday nobody would care..

I'd like to echo the sentiments of this comment

Well that comment made my day.

the editor doesnt decide the length though

@@pianoyos3631 Same here :)

twain27 carefully, he’s a hero

I heard he was fired when they discovered a video longer than 90 seconds. He broke the contract.

@Maxim BIGNO Good one

Maxim BIGNO So, apparently none of his opponents was ever allowed to play their A game against him for more than a minute then!

he grunts when he butts heads with Stan

I've only ever really heard him grunt at Roland Garros; last time might have been around 2011 against Nadal.

@@michaelscoots He grunted some against Thiem I think when last they played

Lol only because it's federer

Joel: And a fellow countryman and Davis Cup partner. Let's just assume that makes it easier.

@@notsohandytim5090 And partner when he won at the olympics. That's true. But Stan is such a good sportsman. At the end of a match he always has some nice words for his opponent and gives him a hug instead of only a handshake. He hypes up the crowd and shows a good sense of humour while he's playing. It seems like he has a lot of fun on the court even if he's about to lose. Besides his fighting spirit and passion is this what makes him really sympathic for me.

Joel Kamer : agreed , my favorite tennis players Stan and Roger, they respect each other so much

There's no doubt about Swiss class

I heard John Isner called up the tournament director to double-check his record for longest match ever is still intact.

Agree here...4min frome 3,30h match, what a joke.

hahahahahahaha... good one

😂💦

Hey don't push it. This is already much better than what they had before.

fed is the all time best tiebreak player

he won a tiebreaker against him in Cincinnati 2018

@youtube person No i mean you can look up the statistic for this. Federer is no.1 for percentage won on the all time list. 1. Roger Federer 65.1% 2. Arthur Ashe 64.9% 3. Novak Djokovic 63.3% 4. Andres Gomez 63.2% 5. Pete Sampras 62.8%

@@Tesla_Death_Ray Yes, I was thinking Federer has to be #1. He doesn't lose many tiebreakers. He usually OWNS them.

@youtube person Sorry pal, Nadal is nowhere in the list. Its Roger then Novak among the player you may know. Then Sampras.

So true! Where has he been hiding all these years? His tennis is amazing!

Late bloomer. Went pro at 32 I hear.

All jokes aside, as good as the new talents are, they aren't legends like the current top 3 is and have been for over a decade. We have been spoiled with a unique generation of talents.

biff tannen Yeah I mean Zverev has gotten all hyped up but what has he done? He’s 21, won a Masters, a World Tour Final, and made a couple grand slam quarterfinals. Rafa by age 21 had like 3 slams and 10 Masters and had beaten prime Federer a ton of times

Sachin Johri at 21 Federer had beaten roger a ton of times! Wait...

best single handed backhands on tour

@@ale03000 Gasquet, Thiem and Shapo as well

Single handed backhands are so good to watch

@@Team3xtreme nadal loves to play against single backhand players.

Jeffrey Kaufmann Yeh coz he is a left hander so he just sits there all day hitting heavy top spin forehands to one corner of the court lol. Boring as bat shit

Hi Simon! Good to see you here in RG!

You too Miguel

Wow, that was unexpected!

@@miguelbarahona6636 Yeah, but I had a feeling.

Yeah I knew too a Swiss guy would loose this one

@@sakethreddy4450 Lol

@@sakethreddy4450 lmfao

Yeah it's a start. But gosh, not even a set point? How can you do highlights without at least a setpoint?

Yeah don't say that, the next highlight will be of 1 minute.

If, Like Rom, Federer not, withdraws, Nadal will, beat Federer,3 set, 6,3, 6, 0, 6,2

@@fariborz1988 What on earth are you trying to say? That makes no sense

Markone generally they make the highlights longer as the tournament goes on.

Yes, he started to realise ever more over the years that he has to be even more aggressive than he was in his best years 2004-2009. E.g. Standing closer to the baseline, return on the backhand side more often with topspin than slice. In 2017 he executed that perfectly.

Couldn't believe my eyes lol

every time the same lame comments... just shut up my dudes

Altough not fluid quality of vid

Sucker

The Rafa match was a hammering, just hope he doesn't do the same against Federer in the semi final.

@@gherbihicham8506 Federer has a much better serve than Nishikori and he is going to try and get as many aces as possible against Nadal because that's his only chance to win the match.

Not fair comparison. Kei had an arm injury that spelled disaster for him against Rafa.

If the match lasts that long 🤣

It's going to be short three sets. Not much to show

The way Nadal is playing Federer will be lucky to win at least 20 points.

Let's be real yeah?

Darius Jacobs he's definitely not the favorite, but why act so overconfident? Seem to remember people like you saying he was going to bagel djokovic and win in three quick sets; plot twist, he got destroyed. Federer had also won their last five encounters; although not on clay, Rafa had had a rough clay court season until like a week ago. I'd chill guys, don't want to have to eat crow, just support your guy without thrashing the other. Idk why their fans have to hate so much, you do know they're really good friends right?

Yes, we shall never see his like again... He's as close to tennis perfection as a human being can be, I believe

Gweniplodokus That's why Djokovic mops the floor with Federer and Nadal beating the crap out of them.

@@katerinapatiniotis5598 Indeed,people are too quick to forget Djoker in moments like this. But history will,I am sure, put these three in an appropriate order.

​@@katerinapatiniotis5598 Just like in that Rome final a couple weeks ago, right?

@@scottiep74true!

Glad to see him playing at a very high level again. I hope he gets a title or two before the season's over! He deserves to be rewarded after struggling since return from knee operations.

unowen7591 I don’t think Rafa winning in straight set. As a matter of fact, I am hopeful for Fed’s win but apparently Roger’s backhand breaks down and he can’t sustain long. But, I’m sure he will go all out and leave it all there like he said he would do after AO 2017 semi. One more showdown at RG!✌️

Agreed . It’s amazing how well Federer is playing at 37 . Nadal on clay is just so damn tough to beat.

I wouldn’t count the Goat out at all. Rafa is the favourite of course but Roger is Roger and last 3 matches between them Roger won all of them.

I wish they face each other in the Wimbledon final this year like in 2006,2007 and 2008 that would be Classic

@@tattwa1 Maybe Roger will take a set off Rafa but Nadal has never lost in the semis before. And if he plays like he did today, he'll definitely lose in straights.

Fabio Salazar Rafa is the favourite but he won’t destroy Federer, if the Swiss is feeling motivated and confident after the 5 straight wins he has over Nadal he’ll give him more trouble than you think, Fed mental game is his downfall sometimes but if he’s confident he’ll be a matchup for Nadal

@@johanrijhkelaar3627... Have u seen Rafa play in this tournament? He's a higher level than others. I think the only one who can stop the Spaniard is Djokovic as long as he is at his best.

Yes it gonna be epic

As much as the Fed fan in me hates to admit it, Fed would do well to push Nadal to 4 sets. Still, any Fedal match up is one for the chroniclers, as the rivalry transcends the sport of tennis.

Federer always try to keep the points short. It's how he keep his longevity in tennis

@@Fonzleberry I share your pain here.. same damn feeling..

@@Fonzleberry I wouldnt be so sure. Federer won all their matches in 2017 and two quite comfortably. Yes, this is clay but he is playing aggressive and confident from the backhand. Anything can happen

What's a "handshake"?

My statement is not only that he is the Best tennis player ever; he is top 3 of the greatest sport athletes ever. Privilege to watch a Living legend like Roger. Good luck in the semi-final⚡️👑

@@ThisIsHarun You should consider using your head as well. Only answering with unnecessary hate to an opinion of somebody else just shows that your the one who is "brain dead". What a shame as a grown up man.

Nice try, the only argument for Federer in the GOAT debate is his grand slam record, everything else is topped by Nadal and Djokovic. Once some one breaks that record he will have no claim at all in this GOAT debate.

@@gherbihicham8506 what's included in your "everything else" list?

@@Allschmoi Shut up you idiot who are you? his lawyer? 😒I was just being sarcastic..

I doubt the crowd will be against the guy who has won there 11 times

The crowd has never been on Fed side against Nadal or the opposite.

There’s not too much pressure on Roger which is good

@Ferdous Alam Lol you are lying yourself atm. He might be more popular than Djokovic. With Nadal they are even.

@Ferdous Alam Fed is a bit older so. its normal that he has few more fans. Hes been on the big stage a bit more than Nadal. That doesnt make him more popular. They both are. In France Nadal has reached twice as many finals at RG than Fed. This might make him more popular there.

if he wins the semi, he will gain 2480 points on Nadal, and so will be world #2. He can achieve that anyway if he wins Wimbledon.

nadal win im sure

no but whatever happens in this semi (Nadal is favourite), he looks to have a decent chance at Wimbledon

Doubt that Federer can take the match on this surface. Nadal knows it too well and statistically, it's one of Federer's weak points. I would argue that Federer/Nadal might be a little one-sided here, but wait for Wimbledon, if Federer is in as good shape as he is now for RG, he will win that 21st.

Usual suspects for semi finals.ranked 1 2 3 & 4.(Already 2& 3 are there)

You are joking right? Federer has not even a chance to win the semis. He wont win a Set. Not even close.

Where he go, he was 22 years old,23, 25, 26, 28, 30, 32, lost to Nadal, now his 37, 38, Nadal is 100% good form, and he played today, one hourse, 43 min, Federe played, 3 hourse,50 min, ,if i was Federer,will withdraws, another court, Nadal mental is down with Federer, bu if Nadal beat Federer her, Nadal mental will be back again, and beat Federer all the the time and court

@@fariborz1988 What are you trying to say

Nole GOAT!!!!!!!!

@@robby12320 He doesn't know what he is trying to say.

Its not the golden age anymore.that ended in 2016.

If you mean because Andy Murray isn’t there now I might agree that it’s nearing the end. But in the 80-year history of professional tennis, this is basically the Golden Era. The 1930’s ere also the Golden Era, with Bill Tilden, Don Budge, Ellsworth Vines, Fred Perry, Jack Crawford, Henri Cochet, Rene Lacoste and Jean Borotra. Women’s tennis is efinitely down right now. Fifteen, twenty years ago, it was awesome, with Venus and Serena, Hingis, Clijsters, Davenport, Capriati, Pierce, Mauresmo, Graf, Seles, etc.

@@swalterstennis Women's tennis is actually on the rise right now with new young bloods like Osaka, Bencic, Anisimova, Yastremska, Andreescu, Vondrousova etc who understand aggresive playing and variety. ATP virtually relies on the old guys like Fed, Nadal, Djoko, to draw crowd as the Next Gen have been dissapointing.

@@swalterstennis The Golden era of mens tennis was from 2008-2016. The big three are way past their prime (especially Federer) and they don't come close to how they played in 2008-16. Seles and Graf were just before the golden era of women's tennis: William sisters,Clijsters,Capriati,Henin,Davenport, Pierce. Kim Clijsters would destroy Osaka and Halep.

I agree. Women’s tennis is at the lowest level in 40 years. Its rock bottom. It’s definitely on the rise. It can’t go any lower. Men’s tennis has THE GREATEST PLAYERS EVER all #1, #2, and #3 right now. Men’s tennis will suck in 5 years. There’s no one who will be all time greats coming up.

I know right. It’s insane. It’s crazy how he set the bar up for himself so high and tennis in general that people overlook that and talk shit

nope it was just because nadal match was fully dominated by him while in Federer's match it was good tie

Or Kei match is just boring as shit

leech u people should stopped talking trash on every comments. Before the rain delayed the match Nadal’s Stadium was heavily full up. It was after they resumed the match people who left the main court decided to go to Roger’s court to watch his marathon match between Roger and Stan. Because they believe Nadal’s match is an already packed match. Which he finished off the job before the rain delayed. Get your fact and analyze things properly

Will Swagger...I doubt he will go all the way Will. in fact, I think that his record 20 grand slam titles total is seriously at risk of being matched or overtaken. especially if nadal and djokovic can play close to their current form for 2/3 more years. roger is nearly 38 and would lose to rafa and novak everytime going forward. roger will only win another grand slam if rafa and novak are out with injury.nadal will catch him and perhaps even djokovic. but, all 3 deserve to be up there because they have produced the most exciting period of tennis in the history of the game.

colin glen he still has many records over them but one he wants to hold over them is grand slam tallies which I agree is at serious risk, it’s the sole reason I think he’s still playing, what a feat tho if he beats Nadal then Djokovic 🙏🏽

49 unforced errors is not bad out of 4 sets. That's consider pretty good.

@@allanyang21 I compared his level of tennis of today,to the level at which he needs to be against nadal so against Nadal u can't afford to hit 49 unforced errors in a 4 sets match.Against any other player that would be decent.nadal just hit 22 unforced errors in 3 sets today and won 7 of 11 break points,what I meant is fed needs to play better than today,against Nadal.

With 34? I don’t think so, but they are both amazing

I stopped watching because of the rain stop and not even an hour later I learn by a friend that the game is over. I should download apps that notify me of such things

don't worry you missed it, RG is infamous for their extended highlights

Is the semi against Nadal on Thursday or Friday ? Thought Friday

I am not

Ronald???

@@vanshagarwal2362 Ronald Raggos

Ronald Garros hahaha

Nah I don't think Federer will even take a set off Nadal. I feel like Rafa is approaching his peak just now. That unplayable level

Funkslave So, if Rafa loses a set, he is not at his peak? Lmaoo already with excuse!

I agree with you though, Roger has a chance to take at least 2 sets if he serves and volleys well and makes more aggressive shots

Nadal will atack Federe, serios atack, Federe he knows he chanc is zero, this is clay court, spcial FO, today Federer was veyry tird, Wawrinak his good player but not clay court player, i think Federer will withdraws,

Exactly my thoughts.

If i was Federer fans, i will say to Roger, Roger go home+, not Philp Charter, Nadal is lang time wait for you in the FO, i think Federer knows, Nadal many years waited him for catch Federer, his mental back again

@@fariborz1988 Can you pls write in English? thank you.

Yeah, two of 18 has to be one of the worst break point conversion percentages in his career (or in most players' careers). I couldn't watch the match live but I was watching the score, and in the first two sets Federer was zero for seven on break points converted. I thought it might be a match similar to his 2008 Wimbledon final against Nadal where it was really tight but Federer converted, what, one of 13 break points and won his two sets in tiebreaks. Glad he scraped through but he'll have to do better than that against Nadal to have a chance. Nadal's serve isn't as powerful was Wawrinka's but he does have the lefty serve wide to Federer's backhand in the ad court, which isn't as effective as it used to be but should still give Federer some trouble, especially on clay where the spin has more of an impact. It'll be a really interesting match to see: Federer has won their last five straight, but those were all on hardcourts, and Federer has never won more than one set per match against Nadal at Roland-Garros.

nah. 3 sets for nadal def.

You realize he's won like the last 5+ matches against Nadal, right? Granted, this is at the French Open. But, Federer's made changes to his game to neutralize Nadal. Should be interesting.

@@buckerine u know roger never beat nadal in rg ..nadal in 4 maximum

@@buckerine Stop spamming that. And that was two years ago 2017when Nadal was just regaining form after his injuries.Federer is older now and at a grand slam tournament where he has gotten smoked by Nadal.

Drew Spot on, thats what I’ve been thinking, although not on clay those five wins might swing things a little bit different this time around,and the fact that Roger will most definitely use the gamestyle (specially the aggressive backhand) that gave him the upperhand on those wins, Nadal is the favourite but I have a feeling Roger will give him more trouble than some people think

@@johanrijhkelaar3627 Federer neo backhand doesnt works on clay

Federer will withdraws, he know, his chanc is zero, he can not play with Nadal, Nadal wins 11 time here,

@@bendecagon3672 how?

DreamTaker choko?

simone robledo lol

But Roger will need a bit more than his outstanding footwork, his forehand and the neobackhand to beat Rafa. May the force be with Roger!

@@miguelbarahona6636 No question that's why my comment said "separates him against most players" . Look to take Rafa down on clay is a tall order and in 3 of 5 set matches even taller. This could be Roger's last chance to finally get a win vs Rafa in Paris but then again as fit as Roger keeps himself who knows.

coz nadal to good people now he gonna win but french open fan love nadal more

Because the result is obvious for Nadal's game.

TBF, that was likely due to Nishikori. By now, everyone knows that it is simply a physical mismatch. Nishikori is simply too weak to compete with the ferocious power of Nadal's shots. And that was even before he had to play a 2-day marathon in the previous match. By contrast, nearly everyone expected the Wawrinka-Federer match to be a competitive and exciting one.

Come on guys I am not talking about popularity or anything i just find it weird for Nadal and if by your logic then no one would attend a Nadal match in RG cause the game is already won before playing so no one would watch it ?..anyway Stan vs Tsitsipas was epic and the atmosphere was amazing..hope you get the point.

Sala Yes, I did. Roger is more fans favorite.

Stan had his chance to play Nadal in 2017 and did about as well as Nishikori did today. It's Federer's turn to try.
