when he was young he was considered a great talent. very good technique and feel for the ball. but his career was a bit dissapointing. many were expecting him to become a top10 player or better but maybe his power was a little lacking.

He's one of the most talented players of his generation, but he's a mental midget and that's being generous to him.

The surfaces getting slower didn't benefit his cause either imo.

Still, he's always fun to watch, both for his shotmaking and his rants!

This was at an exo they played at IMG Bollettieri in Bradenton before the Eddie Herr tourney started, Isner won 6-5 (3)

Jesus there was some sick speed on that tweener!

6-1 6-3 6-0 · 12-08-2012, 05:54 AM

Not very difficult. Especially if it's not a reverse tweener shot. I've only seen a small number of impressive tweener shots, and one of them is Rafael Nadal against Djokovic in the Madrid 2011 final, in which Nadal hit a lob through his legs to gain a 0-40 lead.

you trying to sound cool or do you wanna post some vids of your shots?

Only a top ATP pro could pull off this shot so effortlessly and smoothly and naturally.

Malisse is better at complaining about Nadal taking too long between point.

even them will miss this shot more often than not. 9 out of 10 times a tweener is not winning the point.
