😂😂
😂
😂😂
😂
You had me at sportsmanship 😂
His love for Medvedev is growing day by day♥️♥️😭
Hope one day they will play doubles together
@@tangck1874that would be amazing
@@tangck1874 Was really hoping for it at Laver Cup!
Only when you do your best with true love and passion, good luck follows and your dreams come true.
Trying to find love from Daniil, not today or never
Medvedev getting snubbed for the celebration category is a damn crime
Zverev's perfect player : Forehand : I'd put myself in there Backhand : I'd put myself in there Serve especially second serve : I'd put myself in there Return : I'd put myself in there Slice : I'd put myself in there Net game : I'd put myself in there Touch : I'd put myself in there Movement : I'd put myself in there Speed : I'd put myself in there Flexibility : I'd put myself in there Mental toughness : I'd put myself in there Physical stamina : I'd put myself in there Competitivness : I'd put myself in there Celebration : I'd put myself in there
2nd serve he wouldn’t put himself in there
The loss column: I'd put myself in there
Name the greatest players in history Zverev: " I'd put myself in there"
The GOAT: I'll put myself in there
LOL so true
Tsitsipas seems to be much more positive and fair-play since his new relationship. He used to have very cold handshakes with players but it's like he takes things easy, now. He also seems to have forgotten his conflicts with certain players such as Medvedev, Murray, Kyrgios...
exactly, I think he has genuinely changed a bit
Being in love does wonders ❤️
This change happened before the relationship
Tsitsipas' love for Delpo's forehand and Thiem's love for Stan's backhand are the only constants in life.
I’m not a fan of Stefanos but I really appreciate his honesty and objectivity, to say “Medvedev” when we all know they had a grunge, then to say Djokovic twice when he has faced him a lot in finals, to mentions Mahut and Fucsovic, I think it speaks volumes of how attentive he is to his surroundings and his personal context. I’m sure he will get s Slam soon.
not with that backhand tho'
@@aswinsrikanth408 he isn't the same after badosa
hopefully
@@anup7604 You think Badosa affected his backhand? That's very specific....
@@danguee1 😂😂😂 She has affected his overall game of which backhand is a part, love him.. Hope he gets back on track and fulfils his potential
One thing I can say about Tsitsipas, he's very honest about his answers, because he didn't actually choose himself except the last one, which isn't relevant or important. also, know this, he does not think much of Djokovic, yet Djokovic is the only player on his list that's been chosen in more than one category!!
Still, picking anyone's BH but Novak's just doesn't sound right.
Always seems much nicer in interviews than on court.
And that's great! It's a weakness to be kind on the court, every great player will say that!
and he should be nice on court, what's a point?
@@constantin194 yup, Rublev gave away a point even though ball was out and Cilic won the RG quarter final
I love how he's almost offended when asked why he chose Delpo's forehand😂
An easily overlooked shot where I'll go with Tsitsipas all day long: the overhead/smash. The guy never misses.
Indeed! His overheards are right up there with Roger and Rafa. Maybe even better!
So true, I don't think I have ever seen him miss one, obviously he has but you never fear for him like you do with others including Novak who is terrible at smashes
Stefanos just has a more matured glow about him now. Good for him.
Love his answers, some very thoughtful picks. He's definitely a soulful guy, and very aware of others' strengths & weaknesses. many see him as arrogant but i think he's just a bit different than most of the guys on tour.
Yea that is exactly what I’m starting to think. The guy is just different.
I would take Stefanos Tsitsipas’ forehand, serve & movement on court over most of the Top 20 ATP Players. At 6 feet 5 inches, it is amazing how fast & fluid Stef is on court. Tsitsi was 6’4” at age 17/18. Stefanos is definitely taller now at 24 yrs.
MORE OF THESE please, this was great
A good list! It had some non-obvious choices in there
Wow 🔥 Such smart thoughtful & entertaining answers. Still re-living your brilliant Wimbledon 2023 victory over Sir Andy Murray. Keep going Stef, best of luck for hardcourt season ❤ Best of luck Stefanos Tsitsipas 🙏
I like his variety of answers. He really thought about them
For me, Stefanos has the best forehand on tour right now (minus his short recent dip in overall performance) as well as the best smash. Touch and volley from active players I would put Nadal. He is a BEAST at the net, so underrated!
Crazy how Novak is suitable in almost every aspect of the game!
Medical time out when opponent is leading: novak djokovic
I was thinking the same about Federer. Forehand, volley, touch,
@@anup7604 get a life!
Tsitsipas took the questions seriously😀👍
Definitely most interesting collection from the Greek philosopher... And the overhead..goes to No-whack💥 It would have actually been very interesting to ask him who has the best backhand smash. (and walking between points goes to Holger Rune - or can we stick with Guga? :)
Lob: Andy Murray Dropshot; Carlitos outdoing Diego Tweener: ?
4:40 you are damn right
You forgot: Rules compliance - Novak Djokovic Consistency - Bernard Tomic Expectations success - Donald Young Popularity- Ivan Lendl Conservatory values - Billie J King Ethics - Leger Goold
Ethics- what about novak?
@@anup7604 what about novak ? let me guess he dissagress with whatever bullshit you believe in therefore he s bad right ?
@@vladraduandrei5227 yeah he disagrees that it's okay to take medical time outs whenever he is losing to disrupt the opponent, it's ok to win by any means...
@@anup7604 Lol, what does that even mean?
@@anup7604the rules are the rules if it helps him why not, he didnt write them.
Hellas tsitsipas hellas tsitsipas 🔥
As a Stefanos fan, I gotta say, I've always thought his attitude was the problem sometimes, but you know? I feel like he's genuinely made an effort to be a better person lately. Maybe I'm wrong, but I've actually noticed it. Makes me a bigger fan
more of this please
He is basically trying to say Novak Djokovic but as it will be weird for hin to say novak at every aspect so he is finding new choices
Yes so true, Djoko is the the perfect player in so many domain.
He got his ass kicked by Novak like 10 times in a row his ego hurt
Novak fans as full of themselves and toxic as novak himself
As if...
Do more of these
FH: Federer BH: Djokovic Serve: Isner Return: Djokovic Slice: Federer Net game: Edberg Touch: Federer Speed: Alcaraz Flexibility: Djokovic Mental: Djokovic Competitiveness: Nadal Celebrations: Medvedev
Serve - Sampras, Volley - Edberg, Forehand - DelPo, Backhand - Agassi, Returns - Nole
Serve: Isner. Most obvious choice of any shot by any player.
I usually find Tsitsipas irritating. I like his responses here - fresh take :)
Mental toughness Tsitsipas: “Not me”
Flexibility I give Djokovic Mental strength I give Nadal or Djokovic Speed and endurance also Nadal or Djokovic Slice Federer Serve Federer he had the perfect combination of speed and placement. All other big servers don't have Federers placement. Forehand Alcaraz Nadal or Del Potro Net play Federer Flair Federer Speed Prime Nadal or Monfils Footwork Federer Dropshot Federer Alcaraz
I think after Wimbledon exit he would definitely go with Christopher Eubanks serve😅. Man this tennis/NBA player (2m 11cm- it's crazy for tennis! His serves are not only fast, but cause of his height, it's more easy for him to shoot a big % of 1st serves in.
eubanks is (2m01cm)
Tsitsipas 👍
Derecha: federer Reves: djokovic Slice: federer Mentalidad: djokovic Regreso: djokovic Saque: sampras Velocidad: nadal Stamina: nadal Volea: federer Pasing shot: nadal Movimiento de pies: federer Peloteo linea base: djokovic, federer. Tiro cruzado: nadal Tiro paralelo : djokovic Potencia de tiro: del potro
Я бы добавил: физика - Рафа, крученый мяч - Рафа, долгий розыгрыш - Рафа, свеча - ?, лузер в финалах - Медведев, лузер в 1/4 - Рублёв, лузер всегда - Бублян Игра у сетки - Беккер, универсал - Агасси
Touch game? Didnt alcaraz played 30+ drop shots against him in Barcelona ? and won all
He could have said: I played the perfect player. His name is Carlos Alcaraz.
Flexibility= NOVAK
All of the above: Bernard Tomic
bro was pondering on physical stamina
That's a great selection of players Stef. Just think for serve he wanted to say Nick and for stamina Borna, but couldn't allow himself to say it out loud. 😅
Lob: Andy Murray Dropshot; Carlitos outdoing Diego Tweener: ?
Hah.... Meddy outplays Stef in celebrations creativity😁 Who on earth, would have thought, that after a US open 2021 win, he showed a dead "fish", when he fell to the ground.(or how is it called?) I thought he just showed how tired he was, winning that crazy final !!(i don't play PS, so I wasn't even close to think he did something from a video game 🎮😁)
Oh how Stef loves Daniil 😉😍
now I want to see Alcaraz play vs Tsitsipas' Dream player
If its all time players ednerg should always be chosen for volleys, always
Stefaniil > Tsitsidosa
I dig Badosipas instead of Tsitsidosa
Hahaha celebrations, suuure buddy
In side out backhands.. has he not seen rafa?
Forehand : DelPotro Backhand : Djokvoic Serve especially second serve : Djokovic (best 2nd serve) Return : Djokovic Slice : Federer Net game : Federer Touch : Federer Movement : Alcaraz/Djokovic Speed : Alcaraz/Rune Flexibility : Djokovic Mental toughness : Djokovic Physical stamina : Djokovic Competitivness : Djokovic Celebratio: Djokovic/Medvedev
djokovic best second serve?good joke. he abt eve. hit a kick serve.
You do realise that the only thing that stopped NOVAK from completely annhiliating the other two, was his bad serve, yes he has improved a lot now, but back in 11 and 15 if his serve was good, he could have had two calendar slams
He had to dig deep to not say Djokovic for stamina, flexibility, mental toughness. 🤣 Tsitsipas has world class forehand and volley skills and movement on court.
Tsitsek 🔥🙄
Net game surely has to be Fed every time?
Forehand : Federer, Nadal, Alcaraz Backhand: Djokovic and Stan (one h) Mental strength: Djokovic Serve: Isner, Karlovic Slice: Federer Volley: Federer, Hurchaz Speed: Monfils, Alcaraz, Nadal, Djokovic Game plan: Federer Fighter: Nadal and Djokovic Consistency: Medvedev, Djokovic, Nadal
Game plan: definitely Djokovic. Serve I'll take Fed's. Forehand I might pick Djokovic nowadays too.
Mental toughness: RAFA NADAL. (Remember AO 2022)
You got one example, Djoker got plenty
tsitsi with a functioning backhand, wouldnt that be a player!
No way. He's in love with Meddy.
I want a medvedev Tsitsipas Australian open final so bad
nadal mental goat man. sport mental goat
I like he took somethings from new generation players. For instance, I would choose everything from big 3. F: Federer. B: Djokovic. V: Federer. S: Federer. Movement: Monfils. Touch: Federer. Return: Djokovic. Stamina: Djokovic. Mental: Djokovic. Competitiveness: Nadal. Sorry I have one from Monfils :)
Backhand: Wawrinka
@@anup7604 he has an amazing backhand, maybe even better than Djokovic’s but it is not as consistent as Djokovic’s backhand
It's illegal to pick fed's forehand over Rafa's
@@Pie-oq4np so I love illegal thing
He didn't put feli on net game? He said he was his fav player as a kid and played doubles with him
Body: Badosa
Serve I swear in his head he thought Nick
Cmonnnnn medvedev is celebration
speed...all seem to forget Monfils..
Stamina has to go to Isner for that epic match or Kevin Anderson for his run to Wimbledon finals in 2017 and other lon 5 setters when the tie breaker rule is not there
where is badosa in this
I like Tsitsipas, but there is a sadness that emanates from him. Does he suffer from depression? Or is he just a serious character who is introspective and philosophical?
Man, be normal.. Keep it simple. The best volley is Federer of course
The reason why is he the "leader" in granslams... so pathetic, dude is the GOAT. Period.
Forehand : Delpo/Nadal Backhand : Djokovic Serve: Isner Return : Djokovic Slice : Federer Net game : Federer Touch : Federer Movement : Djokovic/Murray Speed : Which kind of speed? Movement speed -> Monfils, Ball hit speed -> Alcaraz/Thiem Flexibility : Djokovic Mental toughness : Djokovic/Nadal Physical stamina : Djokovic Competitivness : Djokovic/Nadal Celebration: Djokovic
Celebration- Djokvic cringe/abnoxious I'd go with Tsonga or Monflis .. very Genuine and happy
@@shaunbures7557 forehand Djoko, so consistent so reliable pretty much never misses when it’s crucial
Crazy I would put exactly the same
Medvedev 💀
Medvedev is the best celebration, he even did the dance better
I feel like he could have chosen Djokovic for everything 😂
Why, to feel good coz ur Novak fan?
lol
They forgot most talent...
reply if i have jannik sinner fans here :)
well it's Badosa obviously
Shouldn't it be Badosa?
My favourite player Forehand Novak Backhand Medvedev Return Medvedev Serve Novak Clutch Novak Attitude bublik Mental health Novak Style in play ( grace ) Roger
You stole Wawrinka's celebration move, don't cheat
Your player won’t reach the top 5 😅
Grigor Dimitrov the most flexible? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
he has done the splits a few times 🤷♀ I guess he didn't want to say Djokovic on 50% of it
bro hes for sure top 2 most flexible on tour, either him or novak
Dimitrov is more flexible than djoko
@@66Blazes novak and roger would have occupied almost every slot lol mental returns flexibility backhand djkovic although I would say nadal as well on mental forehand slice volleys touch and shotmacking would go to federer many choose del pottros forehand over rogers but this is bull crap except for those hammer moments del potros forehan is just consistent nothing else it can t generate angles an different variety of shots(flat spin on the rise) rogers forehand can plus rogers in his prime had that bombing power as well so
Sliiides in Novak
Watching Stefanos speaking about anything is contriving as hell . He tries to come off as smart with his choices . However its pretentious at best . Who chooses diego for touch ??? No offense to him but still Diego ?!! Wasted my time watching him . Daniil choices were great
Tsitsipas doesn't pick Alcaraz because he's always the loser one
We have seen his dark acts. He is riddled with controversies. If you’re going to promote him, show his dark sides too so people may judge him fairly.
this was a whack dream player
Imagine being so arrogant but having not achieved as much as your peers? Weirdest player on tour
npc comment
@@gandola362okay ‘Raahimagha’
which of his peers (other than medvedev and zverev) has he achieved less than?
@@outsidespac3 Casper Ruud, Carlos Alcaraz, Dominic Thiem…
First he is 24. Secondly he played 2 GS finals loosing to Novak compared to Zverev who reached one final. Except Medvedev who is 28 is is ahead of everyone.
He's so obviously trying to be different that it's embarrassing. Don't try too hard, it's cringe.
Have you thought that he might actually be different? Neurodiversity is a real thing, don't just jump into conclusions.
The guy is getting unbearable
,Alcaraz has everything except possibly big serve, the guy can do everything on court.
basically Djokovic can be put on every category
Flexibilty is obvious Novak choice, but whatever. Just because someone does SPLIT regularly for no apparent reason like Dimitrov doesnt mean he is the most flexible player there is. The way Novak return some balls is inhuman.
I second that. His flexibility is second to none.
Not really. Go watch some highlights of Grigor, he is extremely flexible.
@@soulm8here108 Grigor is flexible, Novak is inhumanly flexible tennis wise. This is not gimnastics, this is about tennis. Novak is not comperable, everyone is biased
@@shredz0000 They can’t put Djokovic in every section. How boring it would have been!?
@@soulm8here108 yeah thats my point.. But if they are realistic they would put him in most Flexible category also.
Forehand: rafa Backhand:novak Serve:isner Speed:rafa Touch:monfils Flexibilty:novak Volley:rafa Mentality: rafa Stamina:rafa
Mentality RAFA 😂.. don't forget that RAFA runs away from NOVAK DJOKOVIC HARD court tournament almost regularly
