Tableau

Roger Federer

Non classé

Daniel Evans

155e, 385 points

400+ days without playing a tour level match but still makes a winning return against a top 30 players.

GOATness

Haha, Justin Loch - what a willy face!

Congratulations King roger....

Welcome back Fed, good win after such a long lay off.

It was very refreshing to see Fed today. We are yet to see ANY player of Fed's level of fineness. Djoko, Nadal, etc are all robots forcing their way through compared to Fed. No disrespect to them, just they don't compete in fineness, elegance and variety department. Yes, they win matches, but why would you care about winning only? This is just a game.

Very Happy😀 to see all 3 Legends back to Business on ATP tour👍🏻 & Congrats to Roger Federer on winning return💐🎉💐

And just like that, Djokovic breaking the record stories were gone and replaced by Fed winning a first round match.

I love TT! 🤣

Yes, a game......a Competitive Game!

GOAT of fineness, elegance and variety department?? Totally agree, the champion of people's hearts😂😂

Fed Fan, yes, each goat has his beauty and strength for different reasons for tennis fans, and the mental strength, determination and power of a Novak and Nadal is just as fine and elegant as Fed's great abilities you mentioned.

Novak's athletic ability to get to most balls Fed and Nadal cannot get near to, him being the best returner ever, his consistency (311 weeks and counting....), Nadal's clay greatness, his lethal forehand, etc. are all things of tennis beauty and awe, things Fed lacks, but no disrespect to him also, he is a champion as is the two others, so yes, it is just a game and we can appreciate them all for their different reasons. We are very privileged to live in these times to see them all play.
