It's so nice listening to Meddy - always classy, but also incredibly funny in the right moments 😉

[@definitionsupervillain4583]

Not related to your comment 😂 but here's my unpopular opinion list: *Serve* : Roddick (not too tall) *Forehand* : Malisse / Gonzalez *Backhand* : Nalbandian *Volley* : Muller / Mischa *Slice* : Dolgopolov *Dropshot* : Alcaraz / Dolgopolov *Speed* : De Minaur / Rafa / Alcaraz *Mentality* : Nole *Flexibility* : Srichaphan / Nole *Physique* : Verdasco / Berettini / Fucsovics *Power* : Del Potro / Rublev *Spin* : Guga / Rafa / Thiem *Lob* : Hewitt / Murray *Consistency in all* : Federer What else?

[@cristianconstantinescu9610]

Pretty good choices, especially the backhand from Thiem- so enjoyable. Also chosing players who are not top 10 is very objective, especially for the shots he selected! Suprisingly humble, if it was Zverev, he would have put himself in there in most shots :)

[@divinespark4842]

How can you possibly not like big Med! Already a legend. Brilliantly unorthodox on the court and equally as brilliantly unorthodox off it. Intelligent, articulate and charismatic. Thank God he's in the mix as a top elite tennis player as it would be much duller without him. Hope he can win another few Slams in his career.

[@RAVISAHAR-ev9eg]

Mental toughness it has to be only one Novak Djokovic..

[@rodrigoodonsalcedocisneros9266]

I think it depends sometimes. Rafa usually never concedes a point. He is feistier than Nole. Nole was mentally drained in that USO 2021 final, but I think he could have won it if he stayed fierce throughout the match the way Rafa remained in the AO 2022 final. Had Nole extended it for one more set, Daniil would have started to fatigue and feel pressure himself, and that's when Nole would have had the chance to turn it around ala AO 2022. On the other hand, Nole has shown he is mentally stronger with the audience against him than Rafa, but just by a nudge. I mean, for the first 10 FOs, the frenchies jeered at Rafa, but eventually started to turn around (the way Nole is finally doing with the USO audience). I think Nole has been tougher because he was jeered at practically everywhere for most of his career, and against almost anyone but specially against Fedal, and, despite that, he kept on winning.

[@r.c.c.10]

Tss... It has always been said Nadal. Recently I hear many people say Novak, Novak, but to be honest I could put both but had I to pick only one I still take Nadal.

Speed, why nobody takl about monfils? He's such incredible

[@rodrigoodonsalcedocisneros9266]

I think the fastest guy is probably De Miñaur. But speed without positioning doesn't work, same case for Monfils. That's why Meddy prefers his speed, he gets to the balls but usually positions himself well to return the shots, unlike Demon or Gael. Alcaraz himself is good at that too, but I agree Daniil is even better, because his whole game depends on it, whereas Alcaraz would get to the ball and smash it at neckbreak speed to score winners.

Rafa was never disqualified, never broke his racket, single cases between arguments with referees, pure concentration on every point of the game. Novak plays amazingly at the end of the match and not bothering about spectators. But Rafa is simply a complete package mentally.
