Stefanos Tsitsipas has the potential to be a BETTER player than Roger Federer

[BorgTheGOAT]

This TA guy was either completely clueless or (more likely) intentionally trolling. Fed hater if there ever was one.

There's a few not very subtle Fed haters around trying veil their distaste for the player with "objective facts and analysis".

I have no idea how you came to this conclusion.

Stefanos was surprisingly similar to Federer when it came to shot types, obviously not in the return game or quality. Key words according to the new "Evaluating tennis styles" website...

TSITSIPAS

• Likes to hit forehands
• Uses variety
• Likes to go to net
• Strong Forehand
• Big Serve

FEDERER

• First-Strike
• Likes to go to net
• Strong Forehand
• Big Serve

The style yes, the results not - so far at least.

I wouldn't credit Pus with 'variety' when he doesn't have a reliable slice, which is really a must for the one-hander. The rest is hardly surprising, obviously for both their serve and forehand are their biggest weapons... except Federer was much better than Tsitsipas at any type of shot.

Can either of them hit three topspin backhands in a row?

How a thread with a title like this got to the 8th page, I don’t understand.

 

[Kralingen]

I wonder who posted this one. @StefanV seems like a good poster.

Great Age Shift, still time for Stefanos

Give him some time. He's still working on his game. Someday Federer will be a poor man's Tsitsipas.

 

[ronalditop]

Roger Federer is getting betterer.

Can you ever live down a prediction like this especially if you have a name like ‘TennisAnalyst’?

I thoughts Tsits would win one or two slams before outlandish Yahoo-clickbait predictions would be posted.
Let's see. Fed better FH, serve, 1HBH, better movement, trick shots, grace, hair, has a set of twins, Rolex commercials, shoe company/investor and the Tsits has his Dad as coach. A lot of lopsided things here.

Djokovic has traumatized him for life. Djokovic was down and out in the RG 2021 Final but he roared back from a 0-2 deficit and won. Then Djokovic poured salt on already big wound at the AO 2023 Final by winning in straight sets. By the time Djokovic retires it will be too late for Tsitsipas to make any big improvements in his career.

How many such souls has this monster harvested in his career?

Is his potential now behind him?

On the other hand he does have 3 MC titles which is 3 more than Fed ever managed.
