50 Ridiculously Good Backhands by Roger Federer

Oh! Federer at it again with the backhand. Just pounding away at the Federer backhand, but what a response. Perfect. Oh, he's made it. Donskoi was outside the doubles court, hitting that last forehand, but Federer finds the space. Oh, what a shot! That is sensational. How's that for a salvo off the backhand wing? This is some very fine footwork and court speed from Federer. The skill level, you know, we sit here and marvel at it, but you take it all for granted that he's going to do it, but what he's doing is phenomenally difficult. Look at the knee bend. Beautiful. Technically perfect. Well, hello to some vintage Federer. That's a sensational backhand. Oh, he's working the angle here, like a South African diamond cutter. Perfectly measured. I'll tell you what, Nick, you know, we've all needed a pick-me-up after the year we've all had. This is just something to put a smile on your face, isn't it? And that ties Lengel, who of course used to coach Murray. What a pick-up that was. It's one thing just to get that one back in play, it's another to hit it aggressively and win the point with it. Oh, what a wonderful shot that was. I mean, you're thinking he's just going to slice this one back and block it, but somehow he's got a full swing on it. With the brilliance of Federer here. Just beautiful backhand up the line. It wasn't a huge opening there. Found the smallest of openings and took advantage. One second, that was very well struck. Well, this goes straight into the portfolio of astonishing backhands from Roger Federer. The weather in his play reflected that. Backhand winner right on the line. Just back with us, and the Federer winning feeling returns. Continues to go for his shots. That's an oil painting from Federer. I think he's going to get it back together by the summer. This guy's got it together. That is amazing. Yeah, you know you're doing something pretty special when you play a chip down the line and your opponent is completely fooled. Tough, you've got to be... Springs when he hit that shot. Well, it even elicited a smile from Federer. Look at how far outside he is. Oh, come on, around the post. 13-15. That might be the greatest shot I've ever seen hit. This is just stunning. 15-0. You felt as Nadal was just getting to grips with the rally. And he throws down one of those. Thanks for coming.
