GameSampras, Why is it you are the only smart one on this forum? Pierre

Chico, You seem intelligent enough to know this. But if Mr. Roddick's forehand is not as fast nor has as much spin, would you know it? I doubt it. But Tarik knows it and laughs about it in our newspaper. Is that enough of a clue? Pierre

Mr. Roddick's intelligence is unparalleled. Maybe it is the coaches? Maybe it is mediocre forehand technique being taught by Americans? Tarik build the forehand, now it is mediocre. How come? Secondly, do you forget that Andy won a Grand Slam title and was #1 in the world? You speak of him as...

Chico9166, I do not understand your comment. NamRanger say that Andy change his forehand and he is right, do you not agree? Andy is American, but his game, Benhabiles build it and make Andy success in pro tennis, not American coach. Andy make #1 with big serve and forehand, then he work...

m27, I may be a maroon, but at least I can spell MORON. What is it about you Americans that choose to hate those who disagree with you? Pierremaroon

Pardon me, Mr. Roddick was #1 in the world and beating everyone. Now with modern Americanized forehand, cannot beat anyone in top 10. Is this American logic? Pierre

Precisely my point. You are brilliant. Mr. Roddick had the most powerful forehand in tennis but now he cannot produce it anymore? More spin and a slower ball no? Maybe the problem is he can't go for it anymore because he lost so much speed? I am right no? You are right. Pierretennis Viva...

I actually like the second clip a lot more. Much fuller takeback and he still gets great extension through contact. Look how far his elbow extends towards the net after contact. It's a really great forehand, that's for sure. JCo, Maybe technique you like produces slower ball no? It's funny...

NameRanger, You are so right. Did you know that it was my fellow countryman Tarik Benhabiles that constructed that superbly powerful forehand? Vive la France! But perhaps the better question is who ruined it? Maybe your American coaches, yes? Maybe the gentleman's name was Goldfine? Pierre

BU- In France we realize that the serve is made up of rotations and linear movements. In America, they look purely at rotations, no? Maybe that is the flaw? Pierre
