If you had the chance to steal one of the blows from a player on the ATP circuit, what would? It is a question that we have often fantasized about among friends, where Roger Federer’s volley, Stan Wawrinka’s backhand or Rafael Nadal’s right hand have come out. However, if we transfer this same question to professional players, we quickly realize the importance of serve in today’s tennis. Through a report prepared by colleagues from TennisTV, the best rackets in the changing room recorded their choice. Let’s review them.
Rafa Nadal: “Probably the serve of Karlovic, Isner or Opelka.”
Daniil Medvedev: “Ivo Karlovic’s serve is a very difficult shot to subtract and you can win many games with him.”
Novak Djokovic: “Obviously, the serve of Opelka, Karlovic, Isner or Raonic. Any of them, it would help me to have their first or second serves ”.
Dominic Thiem: “Stan Wawrinka’s setback, for being one-handed and because I think he is one of the best out there.”
Alex De Miñaur: “Probably Nick Kyrgios serve. He’s one of the best on the tour and it would help me get a lot of free points from now on.
Grigor Dimitrov: Nick Kyrgios’s serve. He can put the ball wherever he wants, he can throw the ball wherever you never know where he’s going to send it. “
Andrey Rublev: “The service of Kyrgios or Isner, it’s incredible how they serve.”
Denis Shapovalov: “Surely, the tweener from Roger, it’s something incredible ”.
Gael Monfils: “I’d steal John Inser’s serve, many years ago aces”.
Diego Schwartzman: “John Isner’s serve.”
Andy Murray: “John Isner’s serve, that would make the rest of the game easier.”
Felix Auger-Aliassime: “Djokovic’s backhand is one of the most stable from the rest, he rarely makes a mistake. It’s a key shot in tennis, although I’m happy with my backhand ”.
Matteo Berrettini: “I think he would steal the rest of Novak Djokovic.”
Karen Khachanov: “It’s complicated, probably Roger Federer’s serve. He always chooses the place well, makes great percentages, wins a lot of points with that shot. It shows that the most important thing is not always the power, but the precision of the ball ”.
Stefanos Tsitsipas: “Del Potro’s right.”
Kei Nishikori: “I would say Raonic’s serve. It’s one of the things I don’t have, I’m one of the smallest players on the circuit, so I need big serves ”.
Borna Coric: “Goran Ivanisevic’s serve, one of the best in the history of the sport. I have followed him since he was a child, so it would be a good choice. “
Fabio Fognini: “Roger Federer’s class.”
