Peak for peak: Raonic vs Roddick, Nishikori vs Hewitt

[Oceans]

overall including breakdown at big tournaments if you wish. Similar calibre players with similar styles.

Discuss.

 

[abmk]

Raonic is Roddick lite
Nishikori is sorta Hewitt lite

not even remotely close overall.

Roddick and Hewitt way better.

 

[Third Serve]

Is this a joke?

[Nole Slam]

Safin > Wawrinka ~ Verdasco > Murray ~ Roddick ~ Hewitt

 

[Oceans]

Their grand slam winning percentages plus against non big 4 are very even. IIRC without the exact numbers: Raonic > Roddick > Nishikori > Hewitt.

 

[Backspin1183]

Hewitt > Roddick >> Nishikori/Raonic. Nishikori leads 5-2 in the head to head against Raonic though.

 

[TMF]

Roddick/Hewitt are better and greater than Nishikori/Raonic. It's not even close.

Believe Roddick & Hewitt are 4-1 combined vs Nishikori & Raonic.

Typical gaslighting & propaganda.
Roddick and Hewitt by some margin, it's Potro you should compare them to.

 

[NatF]

Oceans extrapolating from a failed Lew thread for twice the facepalmage.

Raonic beat Fed in a slam, unlike Hewitt or Roddick IIRC

Hypocrite propaganda or just propaganda?

 

[Lleytonstation]

The Sinner type of propaganda where we pretend we are seeing something better than we actually are.

 

[Oceans]

Raonic beat Fed in a slam, unlike Hewitt or Roddick IIRC

And Nishikori also beat a very good version of Djokovic at the USO..

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Millman beat Fed in a slam and almost did it again! Millman has the third highest peak of the modern era.

Yes, one match against Fed decides this...

Don't be ridiculous, you don't need the third highest peak to beat Fed in a slam, unless you think that classless, talentless, PUSHER Djokovic has one of the highest peaks, lol

 

[Deleted member 781040]

Well one set (in a match he lost) decides that Roddick's mythical peak is one of the highest ever seen, so why not?

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Modern era, i.e. the weakest era of all spacetime. Fred is ancient now.

yes, much weaker than the era of Blake

 

[CHillTennis]

Wow. Roddick's stock has really dropped a lot in the last 10 years.

Consequently, so has Hewitt's.

Roddick is overall a more talented human than Fed imho. He's a world-class tennis talent, but also has natural charisma, is wicked smart, and very effortlessly funny. A great communicator as well. He's also very self-deprecating which makes him endearing. Fed by contrast is sort of a one trick pony, only a tennis talent, and pretty much everything else managed by the Queen.

Are we counting cripples now?

Fed really has really overachieved eh?

Nishikori also got Nole at the Open

Andy got Djoker at HIS Open.

LOL
Love Roddick!
Never loved his game!

Nole wasn't fully healthy in that match, nor was he in his prime yet

 

[Lleytonstation]

Either was Fed at WC vs Raonic.

 

[Deleted member 781040]

My claim actually has proof, i.e. he retired from the match for health related reasons. Federer was able to finish his match, and had peaked at the tournament the year prior in that very round

 

[Third Serve]

Nishikori also got Nole at the Open

Was a good match from Nishi but Djoker was in his 2012-2014 mug mode at the US Open. Worst match of the three he lost, in fact.

Fed was also in Mug Mode against Roddick at WC '09, and A-Rod couldn't get it done.

Ferrer beat healthy Nadal in slams? lol

Feds mug mode is like a thermal starbucks mug though.

as Blake and Srichaphan can confirm. Did you interview them for this particular metaphor?

 

[skaj]

Nishikori is basically an improved version of Hewitt, but with nerves problem.

Djokovic was healthy in that match. Roddick outlasted him in the heat. Deal with it.

Novak retired, so unfortunately your post is unsubstantiated.

If the Wimbledon 2009 final is your bar for "mug mode", then Djoker must have been CRAPOLA in his match. The kind of crap even a toilet wouldn't take.

Fed played pretty well in Wim 09 final.
I felt bad for Roddick.
But I am also sorry that win of Fed burns you up so much, fed-hater.

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Djokovic was also able, he just refused to.

#21 is coming around the corner my friend, no amount of projection will change that.
