  Roger Federer may have won fewer slams than Nadal or Djoko, but he epitomized the ideal of kinetic beauty, just like Jordan in basketball or Maradona in football. His game was fluid, his shot selection flawless, and his movement beautifully efficient. His attacking style of play and overall elegance transcended sport and elevated him to the aesthetic realm. That&apos;s why people loved him, not because he was well-spoken or well-mannered. He could be sulky and ungracious sometimes, but man, who cared when he played like this. Roddick was just a hard-working athlete. Federer was somewhere beyond the domain of mere mortals.

  No one can play like Roger in his prime. He was a monster. You weren’t safe anywhere you hit the ball practically. So very dominant.

  Really miss those days, especially that year 2006, I remember that Roger only lost 5 matches in the entire year when total matches was 100+ played, unbelievable stuff

  This 2006 version of Fed is the best player I’ve ever seen… the speed, power, touch… simply untouchable

  Boy, Roddick really held his own in this match better than I remembered. Roger put a dagger in his career.

  Roger Federer is just scary good. &nbsp;This extremely high level of play holds up even by today&apos;s standards 16 years later. &nbsp;There may be two guys just ahead of him in total grand slams, but Roger is the most natural and dominant player I&apos;ve ever seen.
