Verdasco's forehand at its best is just ridiculous

[@MateusHenrique-of4bc]

jeliemann14 mischa zverev 2

[@regi40933]

jellerman.. yeah so pity he cant beat roger even once.

[@jeffreykaufmann2867]

@@regi40933 if Federer plays verdasco at next year's French Open Fed will get destroyed

[@SECRETCINEMALOSANGELES]

reverse any video make him a righty he has the best swing just not always mental i wish him at least one major god dam it yes its incredible when hes on !

[@raduvlad4429]

Mateus Henrique so you compare one of the best fh in verdasco with one of the worst m.zverev.Yeah you sure know you re stuff

[@notsohandytim5090]

Everyone suddenly adopting the Wawrinka "point to my head" gesture. Is using your brain during a match a revelation to the ATP ?

[@domoso2794]

lol

[@SoloPregunto]

Verdasco did it much erlier than Wawrinka lol

[@h4rder10]

at least u havent seen verdasco in 2009 AO where he was showing his hand after a great point like he's 2nd coming of christ

[@wayofbinding]

even so! he steal it from wawrinka and I cannot forgive him! never!

[@hamzaa.8082]

NotSoHandyTim this gesture means: my brain is full of shit and you don’t stand a chance.

[@simoncooper3]

It's just great to see Andy Murray back and competing his hardest at the very top level. Well played Verdasco though. We all know how capable he is of powering anyone off the court. He'll need to be ultra aggressive against Delpo in the next round though. Should be a cracking match

[@floydpenners1558]

Verdasco back to his US Open best! Who remembers Verdasco v. Ferrer at the Open in 2010? Classic.

[@zachsellars7188]

Floyd Penners fuck yeh ridiculous level

[@jody024]

One of the best matches F.V has ever played.

[@wuzhenick]

He truly has the most textbook forehand and backhand swing in ATP. His slow motion vids are probably the best suitable for beginners instead of other talents who all have their own twist add in their strokes...

[@Luchon20082010]

TOTAL DEMOLITION FROM VERDASCO. BY FAR THE BEST FOREHAND ON THE CIRCUIT

[@VARMOT123]

Verdasco’s racquet motion is a thing of beauty just like shapavolov’s these days

[@SECRETCINEMALOSANGELES]

reverse the video make him a righty yes he has thee best swing killing it when hes on

[@flexguillaume9361]

I like Murray to, but I'm so happy for Verdasco a very good victory for him!

[@RAYMOND2468]

Then Verdasco will lose the next round as usual

[@patrickwood2644]

Leo Wong well it’s Del Potro so to be fair most players would be ripped to shreds, not just Verdasco

[@melande-ru7ro]

Are you sure Leo Wong Mouloud ?

[@ralki15]

Leo Wong. I can't help but agree with you, but it's soooo true though he will choke eventually X'D

[@melande-ru7ro]

Lorki Allah yahdik Ya allah guide ce jahal

[@alexhomovc8179]

Damn it was true

[@novz19]

Verdasco forehand when its clicking ,bobye!!!!!

[@mariano3460]

I get the feeling that verdasco has underachieved during his career i mean he has the talent and the strokes,they’re so clean,he should’ve won some more titles.

[@Popo-rg1bm]

Finally takes out the Come onnnnnnn and let’s gooooooooo Crying defense Murray!! Thank you Verdasco

wow this highlights actually shows the winners from the losers like finally!!!

[@eliasmikealson4476]

yeah that's because the winner isn't american

[@tennisfitapp]

Always great to see Fernando's attacking tennis...And for Andy, he needs more matches and time..

[@sanjithputhran5547]

Its quite excruciating to see andy hobbling during the changeovers.what an underachiever for his exquisite talent.andy must resurrect his game totally to have any chance of competing at the highest level.

[@abhishekkhandkar]

Biggest chocker of all times

[@domoso2794]

Verdasco was so happy.......its like 2016 Aus open

[@cervantes1168]

Is that all? Just 2 minute highlights?

[@leocozijn2326]

Andy Murray, the Neymar of tennis.

[@pukulu]

big upset even if Murray is not back in top form yet. Verdasco is past his prime but not by much.

[@hilmifirdaus5124]

Not a fan of Murray but i feel pity for him. I hope he can win another slam before he retired

[@Markmsv]

Highly unlikely

[@SalRN14]

He finally played his best against someone other than Nadal

[@HittheJay]

Everyone hating on Verdasco so much. He has a phenomenal game. So what if he celebrated.

[@raffaytarar1]

That point at 1:35. Too Good.

[@liamholloway-sw7eu]

Murray could’ve easily won this match tbh big point was the only real difference and a few more errors than a prime Murray but in 6 months he’ll be back in the top 50

[@donkeykongfederersucks66]

VERDASCO GOOD FOR YOU!!! LOVE YOUR MANLY TENNIS!! POOR ANDY IMM AFRAID INJURIES WILL TAKEOUT MURRARY JUST LIKE THEY TOOK OUT HEWITT!!

[@liamholloway-sw7eu]

I doubt it Murray’s comeback is still early give him 6 months atleast

[@janglepoop123]

What? A comment by donkey that isn't bashing Fed. Is this real life?

[@Liamnerfdude1]

DK you're gay.

[@regi40933]

DK.. dont worry man, he 's going to beat delpo and stan next.

[@zakariadjouzi7570]

Werner more like fedtards sucks balls !!!

[@TM-fu2we]

It was a great match to watch but cannot quite believe the time violation Verdasco was given in the last game. It was a tense moment and the TV totally inopportune. The umpire actually smirked after he gave it:(

[@novola1972]

....a nightmare match up for anyone in early rounds

[@unowen7591]

Well, so much for hoping that it’d be year 2012

[@davidhuang5645]

Federer came back from injury and won a grand slam.

[@Marc-vk7rl]

Not everyone is Federer. Wawrinka and Murray need more time to get back in form and this is not a shame

[@DaProHobbit]

Djok came back and was absolutely shite, but look at him now... Unless a quality player who doesn't always crumble under the pressure (literally every 'next gen' player) arrives on tour, Murray will be back with the rest of the big 4 soon enough.

[@Lakers24bn]

Murray's injury was worse

[@SR-qw8kc]

Murray's was so much worse

[@bigtimeposters5963]

VAMOS!!

[@80sruler]

Andy needs to get some matches in this fall and get back to game shape for the Aussie. Not a shock here

[@AdityaSharma-cl1nt]

Thanks for the upload

[@muthurajaramachandar4762]

Why is Murray walking like that I think he's not fully recovered 😥

[@melande-ru7ro]

Yes

[@goyocode]

Celebrating too hard for a win over player that's recovering from injury.

[@thebigmonstaandy6644]

lol! he thinks he is mental strong now.

[@rosie94204]

@Tennis Grinder troll

[@dumbledoriesII]

Monsta Andy he thinks he’s Wawrinka pointing his finger to his head haha

[@EthansTv]

Gregorio Ramírez Alarcón besting a opponent who beat u 8 times in a row previously feels good and Murray hasnt said anything about pain so he has no excuse except for being tired

[@godzayd1067]

Look at the way he walks, it is obvious that he has ship injury.

[@brunosuster1450]

Congrulation fernando

[@FreddytheMEDmissile]

why are there less channels with extended highlights

[@wayofbinding]

lol he just mimic STAN THE MAN's signature pointing of the head gesture. anyway congratz! stan ftw!

[@jaysunzow]

verdasco always manages to upset big players

[@itsnadaaaa]

His win against Murray was a bit expected. Murray is only now getting back into the Tennis World. Del Potro's killer Backhand will crush Verdasco on Friday

[@robinrutschman]

Does anyone notice Murray limping? He is NOT at 100%.

[@brocanova]

Andy Murray or John Doe - no matter who, Verdasco played great.

[@khinrunite]

I thought I read "puta" from Verdasco's lips at the end lol 🤔😆

[@dukha82]

I am Spanish and the answer is positive...son of a bitch

[@SECRETCINEMALOSANGELES]

yeah and all the murray fans putos

[@Max-yp1iw]

f cutillas no..

[@surajssubramanian7327]

If Andy Murray doesn't play aggressively,he is not winning another Grand slam. He has to come in more often. More volleying. Shorter points

[@NiketMJoshi]

Well...anyways the 2013 Wimbledon Men's Quarter Final was a closely contested five set match. This time the result is a bit different.

[@SuperMirtel]

Verdasco s grunt is very manly lel

[@georgedonaldson7220]

Murray will be back stronger, fitter and faster. Verdasco will probably be out in the third round. His forehand is awesome though.

[@mrenigma4641]

Murray was badly injured in this match

[@gamecollects940]

Where could I buy that t-shirt Murray was wearing ?( the 2nd one )

win 1 major fucker Verdasco has the best swing on tour just wish he had the mental to not choke

[@venumadhavkaduluru3019]

He defeated Nadal in Austin open 2016 in first round

[@wava2187]

Verdasco thinking he's figured out how to beat a player that can hardly walk!

[@Max-yp1iw]

wa va hahahaha

[@elg0rdo351]

If Murray is not competitive, he shouldn't fuckin compete in a best of five event.

[@kitaek70]

1:20 set point - why?

[@vivekprakhar]

Notice the weird walking stance of Murray at 1:30?is it cos of hip surgery?he looks in discomfort

[@A_T_A_Ali]

Verdasco keeps pointing at his mental game after winning points! He should point at it when he loses points; I guess then he might break through.. Unbelievable game, but very bad tennis IQ!

[@hellodavey1902]

Verdasco forehand...Awesome! Murray body...Broken! Video Highlights...Terrible!

[@ricklee5431]

Murray will never get anywhere unless he learns how to control his fickle mind. ...and that ain't gonna happen.

[@agusgamer2455]

Still don’t get why Murray is considered one of the “big four”?

[@youshenglv5616]

Agus Gamer injured

[@LCRedemption]

Andy the giant infant still can't focus on the game.

[@janelincoln7635]

If you see Andy´s 2nd serve with 81mph, then you know, that his is definitely not fit...so no wonder he lost...would be a surprise if he won ;)

[@bettingaddict4689]

Dont worry murray just needs to time to get his form back

[@shubham23sood49]

He will never get back to his form 😂😂he is still struggling man

[@CaLMCee]

I am worried, most of us dont want to have to see him play again!

[@AtamuratErinmezler]

That is not gonna happen....

[@AtamuratErinmezler]

Sorry about Murray but Verdasco deserved it.

[@howensung6968]

And they say murray has already back in form....

[@springfield03sniper]

Osung 823 Murray will never regain the movement he had. He is older and the hip will never be perfect.

[@dylanzhu7778]

obviously someone wants to jinx it.

[@reynaldbonilla4784]

very soon retirement is coming too bad

[@SoulStatement]

When Murray was at the height of his powers Verdasco took him to 5 at Wimbledon. We are not talking about a scrub here.

[@liamholloway-sw7eu]

The amount of retards here did you see Murray he was running down everything and moving fine once he trains the and practices more he can come back stronger Anderson had hip surgery isnolder and playing beat tennis of his career you morons. The last two sets from Verdasco were so good such high quality this was Murray best match on his comeback play was great at times smashing his backhand and hitting his forehand way better in 6 months Murray will be back in the top 100 mark my words

[@godzayd1067]

Murrays biggest problem is that he is too defensive. He is so physically fit, why won’t he just crank the ball or be more aggressive like in 2012 when he won the us open?

[@danmeadowsmusic]

I think he won the US Open final against Djokovic a) because Djoker wasn't at his best, he mostly dominates Murray otherwise b) the windier conditions favour Murray as his slice is 5x than Novak's. Murray's power was never really his forte - he's an excellent scrambler and very consistent off both wings but can't really hammer winners the same way the big 3 or even Stan can when he's playing well.

[@JustMyOpinion05]

DanimalLawlz Murray did beat him at Wimbledon 2013 as well as Olympics 2012. Murray was excellent for a few years under Lendl then went back to defensive reactive tennis. I always thought Murray vs Djokovic should have been closer as a match up because they are so similar. The one thing that’s always let Murray down is his lack of aggression in them matches he lost to Nole.

[@danmeadowsmusic]

School Of Thought It should've been closer but I think Djoker is just a little bit better in almost every regard other than volley, slice and scrambling. Djoker's forehand is a bit more powerful, his backhand is certainly more powerful, his mental game more stable. Murray also never improved his second serve which is a major liability, which Djoker did and has won all the additional slams as a result.

[@MyChevySonic]

Hahahaha, Delpo next. Good luck Verdasco.

[@alexruwndar6762]

I still wonder why they call it the 'Big Four' when it should just be the 'Big Three' of Fedex, Rafa and Djokovic..

[@hellodavey1902]

Agree...but look at Murrays Career stats on ATP website. 3 GOATS, Murray>Wawrinka, Other Grand Slam Winners since ‘03, ... then the rest.

[@alexruwndar6762]

Agreed with you too.. But to compare or put 3 GS winner with three other guys who won a minimum 12 GSs each. U know.. Just saying but..

[@Luchon20082010]

Del po played terrible against Kudla. He got to hit with his his incredible forehand, he can maje Verdasco miss and put him on pressure anu time he wants to

[@hanzvargas3090]

Andy no :(

[@rontennis6569]

Verdasco is a boss. Murray and his fans as crying as usual

Yeh cuz Murray’s way before Verdasco in terms of their careers 😂😂😂 moron

Am I the only one to think that Adidas Cloting are getting ugliest at every championship?

[@Nightingale_1]

Verdasco should have done what wawrinka has done in his career. Still not too late. But This was just one match. Hasn’t won anything yet.

[@mother7007]

Oh yes the pointing inside head does the trick. What about all those matches u lost vadassco your not telling us it was because you never used your brain. It's a bit late in your career to start using your brain to win a GS. Not good enough player these day to win a GS but good enough to beat players coming back from injuries.

[@mdshoeb3017]

Murray should retire with respect.

[@dhruvpandey3870]

Not everyone has Fedrer like fairytale comeback, you can ask Djokovic .

[@funkymonk4586]

lol at this fedtard, you can't compare injuries, djokovic had one on his right elbow for crying out loud

[@smftrsddvjiou6443]

Mussay‘s time is over.

[@tabularasa7711]

two things: first, Murray, you need to really fitness up your hips, and get the power back... i believe you can do it. and Verdasco, man, you remind me of your AOpen SF against Nadal when you defeated your self-non-belief and pointed to your brain. Suggestion from a long time admirer of your game: if you point to your heart, that's where the mind and power will help you to get to the SF again at the USO, and who knows, maybe all the way! The brain is part of the battle, but if you can put 100% heart into it, the game is yours.

[@A_T_A_Ali]

tabularasa7711 i have to disagree! He plays with so much heart! And he points at his brain because he knows it; just like everyone who have not only watched the game their entire life but played it, that his biggest issue is his IQ! He is got one of the best weapons on tour but because of his mental game, effectiveness and execution of good tennis almost always doesn't show up in the big matches!

[@Aaron-fj1hl]

blue clay is back - Why are all hard courts slowing down all over the world, is it to give defensive players an edge, no wonder nobody comes to the net anymore. Be ashamed US open

[@liamholloway-sw7eu]

You’re a fucking idiot as are your two likers this match was agrresive tennis throughout with great athletetism and look how much both players came in you fucking social media cretin fanboy fucking moron

[@flash012234]

US Open has literally turned into the 2nd clay major of the year. It's pathetic how slow those courts have gotten.

[@Leonardo-or1ll]

Points now consist of servebots winning straight off the bat or a rally followed by a unforced error. Boring!

[@mhlaclase178]

Murray this year not good for him its thé 2nd worse years Ever

[@jay_kulina]

Murray still needs a lot of time. He plays generic passive tennis right now, with a trashy forehand that threats nobody. It's a shame cos his backhand is freakin world-class(better than Rafa's, almost as good as Novak's), even after injury. I hope he turns this round in the future. Tennis needs good Andy back. I'm really happy for Verdasco, he deserved it totally. That form reminds me a bit of 2009 A0. He's got the game to be a dark-horse. Great tennis from him and i hope for an awesome big-hitting match against my man Delpo.

[@rajvineeth8973]

hahaha murray 🤣

[@sheru-xw5bc]

Why Europeans point at their head?

[@davemo9108]

Murray is the Wozniacki of the ATP...so annoying to watch he complains about every f'n thing!!! Was salty at the net too...he acts like the voice of the ATP.

[@chichora123]

May be the feminist Andy Murray lost his balls and has become a woman player.

[@desiremixx7622]

Overrated murray is hyped only by the paid brit media. No one else takes him seriously anymore. Time to tweet about feminism to stay in spotlight. Judy and Andy will be in mainstream brit media spotlight like david Beckham - muxh after their expiry dates. Like beckham, murray is low on talent but big in shenanigans. Time to retire with some fake injury excuses

[@johndelacruz4899]

Meh. Damn. I hate verdasco. Wouldve loved more murray. He has one of the better outfits too
