Watching the video: 1% Oh these are fast shots 99% God I miss Delpotro
I miss him too!!! He was such an interesting and pretty talented player, could've made the finals and won a few slams before drooping down to the top 100s of the ATP rankings instead of top 10.
God I miss Delpotro
Gilles Simone and Gäel Monfils made me smile. They spread joy to whole stadium. 😊 Juan Martin del Potro's monster forehand winners are the most beautiful to watch in my opinion.
del potro is a beast in VT3 too
*Simon
Toning beats Del Potro forehand that was the Thor’s hammer of tennis!
@@MahendraJagatkarx88 Del Potro was not in VT3, maybe youre confusing with Juan Carlos Ferrero

2:17 That Rafa forehand is one of my all time favourite Rafa shots, not just forehands. The amazing footwork speed to run around the ball and then that forehand missile at the end of it, just fantastic stuff. I don't think I will ever get tired of seeing that point.
As a commentator once said, Rafa seems to run backwards faster than most players run forward.
@@leadnitrate2194 LOL true tho!
I agree!! The first time I saw that clip in one of these videos, I was seriously shocked as hell!!! because it was the first shot of that type I've seen in my life!
That freaking Kyrgios highlight was insane, he went super saiyan on that thing
Too bad he's super arrogant. If not, would've been one of the gems to come.
His IRJDGASF playing style and talent is a one man ages long highlight video.
@@aadityabahadkar9847 well...
@@aadityabahadkar9847 nerd
Insane in the true sense of the word. Because he is, unfortunately.
Delpo V Nadal is one of the most memorable matches ever.
why do u think that..
Yeah why...
@@louisgvsnoahp7296 because it was an absolutely amazing match....
@@anujjyothykumar4667 what year??
I was there for the 2018 live, the shot lit up the roof
if Delpo grunts '' Uhaaaaaaaaaaaaaa '' then it's gonna be a rocket
I was at that match, Delpo took so much out of Djokovic that he had nothing left for the final, Murray was the lucky beneficiary as Djokovic resorted to serving and volleying. and obviously given that his volley is pretty poor lost the final. Delpo's injuries have robbed us of a multiple slam winner.
@@jeremyd1021 Delpo was such a legend, injuries really robbed us further legendary moments.
40 yr old Gonzales forehand still better than most active players.
Rafa
That is actually true😂😂😂
Umamageshwaran1990 An Rafa what
sledgehammer.
@@gravinboginagis6568 Rafa forehand better than Gonzales
I miss an information how fast they each were. Would have been cool to include...
Most of these shots probably weren't measured reliably. Safe to say they were pretty fast.
In this case they would need to take out ladies. Better keep it this way 🙄
Rosol - Nadal was 99mph
@@muneebi8273 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE FASTEST SHOTS HERE! SO THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN TAKEN OUT!
@@AB-vq2fr their shots aren’t as fast
Sampras with that badminton jump smash! Purely amazing!!!
Signature move and ohhhhh sooooo intimidating. Filthy athleticism!
That footwork by Nadal. It's absurd how fast he can run backwards, it's almost as fast as some people running forward.
2:16 The most beautiful inside-out
Why do they call it "inside out?"
Oh..
@GuruTruthspeak yes and inside out is cross court and had he hit it down the line with his forehand it wouldve been an inside in
Forehand hits by Nick Krygious, Gonzales, Del Petro and Serena were rockets. Two handed BH by Lukas Rasol and one handed BH by Roger was joy.That overhead by Gael Monfils was pure athleticism
federer forehand shade.
Serena relatively powerful, to the women's game. #XavierMalisse was the original huge forehand. Supposedly, #DavidNalbandian hit a 110mph two handed backhand against #Agassi (also huge hitter in his era) in the 2003 Master Cup, but that seems like a dodgy calibration, like Sam Groth's '163mph' serve.
Pete Sampras was terrifying. He had the physique and facial expression of a woodcutter and in fact sometimes gave the impression of using the tennis racket as an axe.
Sampras didn't have the incredible skills of some, but he had greatness in all the most important shots. Comparing him to Federer is like comparing Ronaldo to Messi (although Federer and Messi were actually better LOL, but the fundamentals are important).
@5:30 that commentator kept messing up which shot it was lol #thirdtimesthecharm
They were all good, anyway, and what is more, each one warmed up for the next.
Lol yeah was hoping someone would point that out
Love DelPo. Those forehands. So crisp!
This is the tennis specific content I love, staying loose and going big. So good to watch
Del Potro hits 105 mph drop shots 😃
lolol
Man, I miss Del Potro. Guy has had such awful luck with injuries, but not many could take it to the top guys like he can when he's on form.
me too
comparatives
Roger F once said that if all the players were on top form Del Potro would win. His power was very difficult to combat so on top form he was hard to stop.
DelPo is scary good. Especially on US hard courts.
Tsonga and Del Potro - pure class, much respect.
Good times. Kyrgios must have the hardest groundstroke of any player, amazing. Must say that backhand of prime Federer against Henman was superfast as well
Roddick's "780mph" overhead. Lol.
YES!
@Jay Davis that would probably create a sonic boom 👌
Like Ramenten
Why the hell did the guy retire!!!! I HATE HIM SO MUCH FOR THAT!!!!! Missing Andy a lot!
Monfils had me cracking up
Used to think the grunts were super unnecessary before I tried actually playing I mean I still don’t do it but I can understand it. Such a tiring game
Rafas foot work and forehand coordination is unmatched. Dude even run very fast backwards. It's really absurd that how much great control he has in his body when he plays shot like this.
Nadal vs Kukushkin inside out forehand was incredible
That Nick Kyrgios shot was probably the fastest looking shot I have ever seen
I'll wager the Roddick smash was the fastest, but it's not a ground stroke or a true forehand even.
it certainly took the shortest path
DP forehands were always the most satisfying to watch, because it comes with the bewildered opponent reaction.
Love Monfils one of the most athletic players on the tour I think the player with the hardest forehands has to go to Del Potro The way he unleashes them and the sound they make is just unbelievable
Hardest yes but the fastes monfils is the number one.
Pete's air smash! Many tried it, only Monfils comes close. Incredible shot
Montfils has better athletic shots tho, never seen someone close to him !
I love Kyrgios reaction at 2:45 😂
Monfils is the most athletic tennis player ever. Every muscle in his body was used to make that shot
How come his grand slam/5 set record is so bad then? He was never that fit and got tired. Alcaraz is now the greatest ever tennis athlete, comfortably.
@@goatlpsI'mnot claiming he's the best, but shelton has good movement too
Rosol was hitting bombs that night vs. Nadal. Extraordinary performance.
What about some of Dustin browns shots against nadal?
What about no? So shut up and keep talking
@@adityamantri7828 ok mate dont cry
@@adityamantri7828 'shut up and keep talking'
@@adityamantri7828 What a weirdly aggressive reply
let him hit a powerful shot first ... look at the video title
That Federer backhand looks mental.... even the cameraman couldn't keep up 😂
Week i saw that 20 years ago Federer was active ... true legend
Delpo in a class of his own when it comes to controlled power.
And that sound, it's like a cannon blast!
In the first rally, Andy Roddick was looking angry right from the serve!
When the commentator say "ridiculous" , that shot is something 🔥🔥🔥 personal fav: Juan Del potro 🔥🔥🔥
I love the fact that Federer plays one handed backhands. He is the ultimate icon of tennis purists
Monfils' shot was just amazing LOL proud to be French
Kyrgios and Delpo forehands are absolute cannons. Roddick has monster serves. Fed has the best one handed back hand in the game. Sampras is power all around.
Federer may be the all-around better player, but Stan Wawrinka's one-handed backhand is definitely better than Fed's
@@kylemichaelsen7374 stan is more powerful but i think is fed is more consistent
Something is just so unique about Wimbledon: the grass, the white uniforms... Takes us back! 🎾🎾
Sampras slam dunk was a statement in the match where we knew opponent got no way coming back ! Such a dominant grass court player !
What a change in tennis since the 80,s.......magic, pure magic.......
sampras had the best serve ive ever seen, between the altime greats, sampras is no 1 in terms of serve, kraijek was also incredible
The amount of respect these players have for each other is unmatched to any other sport
Table Tennis
Cricket is much ahead in this . It's called the gentleman's sport , any form of agression , even a little abuse becomes a controversy , and is heavily looked down upon .
Sampras jump overheads are one the most beautiful shots ever in tennis, especially in slow motion. He had major hops.
The Hardest and Fastest Shots,I like to watch.What I like watching are the rallies between the players.They could go upto 15 shots by each player.
Nice to see Nick Kyrgios " shining" in the league of champions best of the best shots at Wimbledon!
Sampras had the best smash of all time also 2nd serve 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Only backhand rocket from young RF!🔥
There are still some more from Roger, even from 2019
some iconic shots there
Roddick's overhead, hardest shot ever possibly?
Roger's array of forehand shots against raonic in wim 2017 is missing.. That was seriously fast.. And also his slam dunk against haas
Think the final winner was 92 mph. Just wonder how fast his backhand against Henman was, that was insane pace.
@@ferguson7128 yes that shot against henman was unreal..as hard and flat as it can get..
I think this Federer shot is significantly faster, somewhere around 110 mph: kzhead.info/sun/YLxvo5mqeXpvfmg/bejne.html
@@Molybdaenmornell yes a beast of a forehand.. Thanks for sharing👍
@Jay Davis I think he was just hot in the arm. It's amazing how much faster he can hit compared to his usual speed.
Monfils just went super saiyan, even the players and umpire couldn't see including the commentator
It's incredible how similar is Federer's backhand pass vs Henman in 2001 to the one he hit in 2019 vs Nishikori
'I think it was out' 'DOES ITMATTER' erm ..matters a bit yeh
Del Potro-Nadal one of the best match ever in Wimbledon
Amazing
First name that came to my mind was mr Andy Roddick aka maestro of the power-serve
DelPo had 2 vs Djokovic in that match … absolute bombs away!
Kyrgios from another planet
Yes, it does matter whether it's in or out.
Not only was Sampras' shot actually 'retro' but it was a proper hard smash. I miss Pistol Pete.
@K.A.Lange That was his nickname.
One Kyrgios magic moment........
1:22 unbelievable!
Nadal: unbeliebable 😂😂😂
Gotta love Monfils
Juans shot was crazy!
Love it
Del Potro, the hammer. Who else still remembers Tim Henman and Lucas Rosol? Even Tsonga becomes vintage.
Nothing beats Del Potro’s running forehand
Nadal footwork is insane.
5:52 oh hell yes!
But who let roger into Wimbledon with that PONYTAIL
Of all the shots, the ones coming out of Del Potro’s hand (read giant hands) looked effortless... u cud see Kyrgios/Monfils/ others giving their all in those shots but it was just routine work for Del Potro... his reactions too give the same picture .. no surprises
No Dustin Brown against Nadal!?!?!?!? come folks, outrageous!
Same thoughts. Those returns man...
The Kyrgios shot was quite fast 👀
Who else hopes this can be them one day?
That Gonlzalezs shot
Kyrgios looks so young and baby faced!! The ferocity of his forehand at such a young age makes me sad - such a wasted talent. With a clear mind and positive attitude he could have been anything.
He have a powerful shot
@@jordanlako3843 squash shot !
del potro just all in on the one shot build with his extreme and unconventional forehand grip.
Interesting how different Rafa's body shape seemed in 2011. He seems much more heavily built now.
I knew Rosol had to be there. The most savage hitting I've ever seen in a brutal match. Meanwhile, much as I LOVE Del Potro, that forehand against Nadal looks out to me. Meanwhile again....that cross court shot by Serena HAS to be the greatest forehand shot she's ever played!! And she's hit a few. :)
nick's forehand serve return against monaco is insane
Rosol had insane power…both backhand and forehand. Sounded like a shotgun
Everyone : Fastest Forehands Meanwhile Federer : HOLD MY BACKHAND
Man, nobody talking about Rosol backhand 5:16 - textbook twohand. Whatta beaut.
2:42
Bit of love for Lisicki here, such a shame about her injuries she was a joy to watch.
I was expecting a shot from Tsonga on the list given how hard he used to hit the ball
Kyrgios in white looks like a prince
0:16 - Hardest overhead ever struck, 788 meows purr hour. :) 1:28 - Linesgurl behind Rafa ... gorgeous!
0:59 Woh...
2:43 way faster
Love it, love this
Please, who knows what is the title of the music inside this emission ?
amazing! Those shots are like 60% of the speed of a racquetball shot! 🤭
Can watch that Monfils shot all day
Mano de Piedra González!!!
Time for some real talk. We all know from the title of this that it could basically be a Del Potro forehand compilation XD
