Considering they slowed down the balls, surfaces and completely slowed down to game to suit defensive grinders, the fact that an attacking player won 20 slams is quite an achievement.
Great career Federer, let's hope the surfaces change so we can see more attacking players. The US Open is slightly better than the slow courts of 2017-2020 so we got to see a slightly more attacking player like Alcaraz win it. Let's hope this continues.

For me he’s the best tennis player to watch of all time. Silky smooth like Zidane. I feel like his best years were up until his mid 20’s, when he was no 1 for record breaking weeks/years. Then Rafa came to town and challenged him and at the same time he was coming of his absolute peak. So for him to still be here more than a decade late is remarkable.
Rafa is probably the GOAT, but for me this guy is Mr.Tennis and is my GOAT

Dark day in Tennis having the people's champion retire. What a career he has.

Maybe in the Brazilian Ronaldo and Ronaldinho kind of category where people love him but in real technical terms they are behind Messi and Ronaldo. But he brought something unique to the game that can't be judged in wins and titles and such. Like Senna in F1

The most aesthetically pleasing player the game has seen, a great professional who raised the bar. 2 others have come along and taken that a touch further, but no doubt about Federer's influence on the game and the joy he brought to many - and I say that as someone who isn't a 'massive' Federer fan
