      In October 2006, Suzuki played in his first International Series event of the year, the Japan Open Tennis Championships held in Tokyo, having received a wildcard into the main draw. Suzuki, ranked World No. 1078 at the time, won surprise victories over 8th seed Paradorn Srichaphan and World No. 126 Alexander Waske en route to his quarter finals berth against Federer. Suzuki once again lost to Federer in three tight sets, 6-4, 5-7, 6-7(3).[1]

    @TimTheMusicMan 4 месяца назад

    Well I was going to say I felt like Godzilla would be appearing but then I watched the entire set and the dark shirt (the former No. 1) played like tennis should be played. He was a master at the net, a few of his volleys were 'McEnroe' -isk. He used a one handed backhand. He had an all around game, nothing modern (except for the equipment). But as you can tell, coming to the net takes talent, and the one handed backhand takes talent. The current No. 1 should learn from this, but most players today cannot perform these skills as they were never taught to come in off the baseline. But it was an amazing performance. They are both skilled, but the winner showed how tennis should be played, it is a lost art.

This is the worst environment for him to play Suzuki and still he dares to accept the challenge...Great lesson of humility. By the way, what great shape Suzuki is at...at 48 y/o...is he playing the senior tour?

    Takao's serve motion is so perfect for serve and volley. It has great kick, pace, and is high percentage. Throw in the forward momentum he gets from taking a step with his front foot to the baseline. You can tell he really knows who he is as a player and crafted his game around that identity.

    Nishioka's stroke is identical to Nadal's. I'll not be surprised if he model his game based on Nadal

      I think Nishioka finishes across instead of the "buggy whip" more often than Nadal, but it is a similar forehand.

    What string is the coach playing? Sounds like a multifilament

      probably natural gut or synthetic gut. Synthetic gut is my guess, when adjusting the strings it made those "clacking/clicking" sounds, typical with syn gut.

    Dude just beat Isner at Wimbledon. So I am not surprised he would beat a former pro.
