Wow. Only experts like him can notice these things. Brilliant analysis ! We all will miss his legendary forehand. I remember his US open final against Roger Federer , he was smashing his forehand winners against Roger. We all will miss him ! What a legend !
2018 data shows his avg fh topspin was close to 2600 rpm. meaning he flattened only when he wanted to kill the ball. though in honesty this should be measured, with huge rhs and some tilt comes a significant rpm. now, funny how Muratoglou skips to mention his big takeback as it's not something that's modern lol
Coach your right!!! The shoulder was the key factor 🤔my swing partner is kind of the same with del bt had No Power, since I started using my shoulder! My Forehand became massive 💪 thanks for sharing Mom
Te lo resumo... Ese brazo derecho era un GATILLO... Y los pelotazos eran MISILES TELEDIRIGIDOS... Hasta Roddick "padecio" sus "aces..." Cuando el Flaco estaba "inspirado", era INTRATABLE... Como se lo extraña... Un ANIMAL!!..
c'mon Patrick you missed one very important fact in your analysis DelPo is hitting the ball on the rise. I said - very important - because he can hit his flat FH downwards and still clear the net, and second the ball on the rise has higher level of energy than the one that passed the bounce peak, that energy adds up to energy created by the high Swing weight of his racquet and we get that beautiful FH that we all love.
I really wonder if his particular way of striking the FH had anything to do w/ his wrist injury... It did look like he placed more strain on his wrist than other players..
I do not see any 'wrist whip' in the Del Potro forehand. Wrist whip is very misleading as it is a result of other means of accelerating the racket, what we actually see is the wrist laying back as a natural consequence of his leg drive and hip rotation.
Let’s see… really big, Uber coordinated elite athlete = massive power. There are bigger guys than delpo ( but not many) but non are as athletic as he was.

Brilliant analysis that covers areas often missed in other Delpo forehand breakdowns.

He flattens the forehand a lot more than other players. This is the biggest reason why he hits huge forehands

Mom
You didn't include that he uses the Eastern Forehand Grip which gives you explosive power too. Something RF also uses too.
An eastern grip hits flatter but it's not equal to more power. A lot of big hitters use semi-western or western forehand.
Power is independent of grip
Grips don’t have a discernible effect to shots on tour. Also Roger doesn’t use Eastern he uses a hybrid.
Great analysis of a HUGE forehand
Thks Mr Patrick by far very insightful your video deeply thks as always !
Lovely analysis…it really inspires learners like us
great analysis- the full arm extension provides alot of power.
I wish Patrick would do a camp in India. One of the best coaches I've seen when it comes to simple explanations of complex phenomena
Thanks coach great video!!!
Excellent Video!
Nice analysis. Saw the Olympics final against Murray. Thank you. Greetings from the beautiful Algarve to all 👍🌞🤗🗺️💯
Can you describe in a next vídeo the powerful serve of Hubert Hurkazc? I love the motion he makes when he is serving.
Thank you
Poetry in Motion
Hurkacz´s serve deserves a brilliant analysis like this one.
We missed you Delpo ¡¡¡

I’m 5’9”… I can only dream to hit Delpos Forehand lol
I am 6'2", can I copy his forehand ???
Can you analyze Alcaraz forehand next?
Its easy to slam fast flat balls w decent technique, but only if you are very tall you can also put 90% of them in.
I think Juan Martin del Potro and Steffi Graf have the same forehand movement. It would be interesting to compare the two in slow motion.
c'mon Patrick

Plus that his racket barely ever face the ground. There's no 'pat the dog' bullshit. Just pure pace.
Hey patrick, any role of the forehand grip used in the power? If so how much?
I really wonder if his particular way of striking the FH had anything to do w/ his wrist injury... It did look like he placed more strain on his wrist than other players..
Hello Patrick, Can u analyse NIck Kriygos forehand, because he as big power with other technic, like a slap
I do not see any 'wrist whip' in the Del Potro forehand. Wrist whip is very misleading as it is a result of other means of accelerating the racket, what we actually see is the wrist laying back as a natural consequence of his leg drive and hip rotation.
i love Fernando Gonzalez's forehand.
Pleaseeeeeee
Yes and gonzo was like 1.80 cm ..
Let’s see… really big, Uber coordinated elite athlete = massive power. There are bigger guys than delpo ( but not many) but non are as athletic as he was.
198 cm is 6'6''' :P
Delpo is 6'6 no?
No problem with teaching kids this forehand, but you have to consider that many balls would go to net or long.
Topspin is overrated. High pace flat shot is king - if you can be in position to hit it lol. That's why Delpo can beat Federer in his prime.
His forehand technique is almost old fashioned looking.
Having a huge wingspan helps lol.
Tall guy = big serve , forehand
90% angle 😂
Wrist breaking. His forehand is wrist breaking
Patrick likes to talk. All Delpo does is rotate. Simple
