Federer's SABR attack: genius innovation that will transform tennis or just a passing fad?

[TennisAficionado]

Roger has created a new attack that has been called the "Sneak Attack By Roger" or SABR. He has used it during Cincinnati and the US Open to great effect. It seems to totally disrupt the opponent's rhythm and change the game. Do you think it is a genius tactic, a genius innovation that will change the way tennis is played? Or is it just passing fad?

It's something that I feel will stick with Federer, but younger generations may learn and adapt to it.

Don't care what it brings other than the 2015 US Open.

SABR...KMA...only works against CHUMPS...Just top spin lob..Joker proved that..

It will work well at the club level.

Passing fad, a good lob neutralizes it, djok hit incredible back to back ones when fed was trying it early.
