Nick Kyrgios recalls astounding shot by Roger Federer against the Aussie at the 2017 Miami Open - "Still wondering how he got to this"

Roger Federer's legendary on-court prowess has produced some of the finest shots in the history of the game. Nick Kyrgios recalled one such master stroke from the semi-finals of the 2017 Miami Open.

The 20-time Grand Slam champion has countless clips circulating on the internet where his elegance and class are on full display, including his signature one-handed backhand.

Kyrgios took to social media to share a throwback clip where the Swiss maestro stunned the Aussie.

"Still wondering how he got to this," he captioned the clip.

In the clip, Kyrgios began with his serve. Federer strategically returned and Kyrgios played a drop shot, fairly confident of a win. However, to his opponent's surprise, the former World No.1 ran towards the net and hit a deft cross-court shot.

Kyrgios lunged sideways but was unable to touch the ball. Federer then calmly walked back to the baseline to get ready for the next ball, leaving the Wimbledon finalist with a look of disbelief on his face.

The three-set battle ended with the five-time US Open champion winning the match and eventually, the title. Over the course of his career, he clashed with the Aussie seven times, with Kyrgios winning once in the opening round of the 2015 Madrid Open.
