2019 TTW Awards- Best Forehand

[MichaelNadal]

 

[Third Serve]

I voted Berrettini but would like to rescind that.

 

[Keizer]

Kyrgios should be on this list, if we're only talking about the one shot. Imo better FH than Zverev, Medvedev for sure. His FH was monstrous in the tournaments he won. In terms of pure potential, I think only Federer, Nadal, and maybe Thiem have him clearly beat on that wing.

Yeah I agree. It's a world class shot very few can match.

MaxTennis’ forehand on a roll and peaking in 2019 - used his victory in last month’s Stanford tune-up event as stepping stone to his first major title this week.

What did he do this year to deserve a nomination?

What did Zverev do this year to deserve a nomination? He has only one title this year, compared to Nick's 2 ATP 500s. Besides, his forehand is a liability, especially compared to Nick's.

Nadal without a shadow of doubt

It's the only one that could tame Medvedev lol

 

[Third Serve]

I'm surprised StrongRule voted Nadal given how much crap he gave his forehand (and overall game) throughout the USO.

 

[clout]

Rafa’s FH even at 33 is still one of the best weapons on tour imo

 

[Bender]

All-time peak for peak Federer's has got to be the best by a slim margin, but Nadal's forehand has lasted a lot longer, with 2015-2016 or even 2009 being notable exceptions.

This year is no exception; it'd be crazy to pick anyone else's forehand over Nadal's.

Heh heh...

Yeah... exactly!

 

[mightyrick]

I think Nadal's forehand on all surfaces, at all slams, in every masters he played in... proved to be the most effective weapon. Universally.

 

[Tsongham]

Stanimal.

 

[OldschoolKIaus]

Gilles Simon.
