    Wawrinka is so underrated, a lot of people outside of tennis don't even know who he is but he's a real quality player, one of the best of the decade.

    • @TheDymeR
      @TheDymeR 4 года назад +8

      For me, he is overrated. I know, that he won 3 GS's, but overall he started playing quality tennis at the age of 28, since the end of 2013 till the half of 2017. He was ranked in top 10 5x, Murray 9x, Djokovic 12x, Roger 17x, Nadal 15x, Tsonga 6x, Berdych 7x. I don't think Stan is much better than Tsonga or Berdych, but for sure much worse than the Big 3 plus Andy.

      You will so hate me for this, but according to stats, Thiem's the best. Stan attacks a bit more often with the bh than Thiem, but Thiem's attack-winner-percentage is a bit higher and his bh is also significantly faster than Stan's (in all categories, his average bh speed and his average bh winner speed and his fastest bh (which happens to be the record with 104 mph, followed by Nadal and Gasquet with both 103 mph)

      @@juliannaser4017 interesting stuff. I have not looked into the stats to that degree but they always throw up interesting tidbits. I think the winner to error ratio will be better for Thiem because he is not as aggressive as Stan. Also Stan has gone off the rails in last couple of years since his injuries so has lost a lot of matches. The stats no doubt include the recent years in decline. Thiem on the other hand has been on the rise last couple of years and is in his prime right now. Worth bearing in mind, it is not all about power either. Stan’s backhand is so good because of the angles and power combination. Also the control and depth and ability to change direction. I know if I could have any one players single hander, it would be Stan the man!

    Stan Wawrinka and Denis Shapovalov are my favorite backhands to watch. Bar none. If you didn't watch them swing, you'd swear it was a forehand coming across the net. They can deliver crippling power at absurd angles off both wings and that's something that very few players can do. It's breathtaking to watch.

    • @bonzwah1
      @bonzwah1 3 года назад +5

      Shapo’s backhand is very pretty, but on average he generates a lot less pace and depth than his own forehand. He only occasionally finds the time to rip a huge one. Wawrinka’s average backhand genuinely has forehand levels of pace and depth.

    Opponent: hits to Wawrinka's backhand side

    Best backhand of the 2010's in my opinion. Maybe the most solid one is Djokovic's, but the most powerful and the most beautiful is Stanimal's.

    Wawrinka's backhand reminds me a lot of Ivan Lendl. Both are in the same mould, more or less.
