[Music]
you know that that is uh to me a very
safe return
oh yeah wow
14.
oh oh hello
you wouldn't have thought that
ultimately if he were to win this
backhand do
he talks about having those nights where
he just sees the ball so cleanly
backhand does it again
spectacular shots
kidding me
that is amazing
you talked about
the conditions guys that's one of the
things that that does help that shot
right what you've been mentioning with
the the way the court's playing and the
way the balls are playing and then
positioning himself a little bit to the
left but all that works in his favor and
he's just
oh
that's a sidewinder backhand
no topspin on that backhand at all
that's
saves a lot of energy if you don't have
to run around that backhand for roger
yeah
can he sustain that darren for another
set yeah i think so just a final word on
grigor also chris he was absolutely
gutted after that match and even the
next days
great points for federer nadal may
remember that little forehand miss at
15-11 in this game
remember roger had that forehand early
in the fourth that cost him and seen the
set that could be very
[Applause]
going for the kill trying to get the
double break
[Music]
[Applause]
nadal does it all the time well that's
just second nature to him isn't it
no one said word suffer he always talks
about being willing to suffer for this
had more guts than nadal
that was excellent footwork there from
federer
well if his movement is depleted by that
right quad he's showing plenty of guts
right now
[Applause]
another point
a couple looping defensive shots to stay
in the rally
and then that absolutely dug in there
did federer that says a lot about what
uh roger needs to do and what he seems
willing to do which is a good sign
because he had to really do that the
hard way
[Applause]
[Music]
let him win that way
what a shot
big federer fist pump to his group which
is just
off his left shoulder another break
opportunity
[Applause]
federer breaks back
[Music]
[Applause]
oh you gotta love this
who can dig deeper
matches longest rally
has gotten federer another great chance
to serve for the champions
federer
digging deeper than he's ever had to yep
and now within one hold of serve
championship
of his fifth australian open
thank you
it's a challenge from nadal
it was called good
[Music]
it's game set match federer if it's good
and it is
[Music]
you
