Super slow motion videos of Roger Federer - hitting mostly forehands and a couple of backhands. Incredible detail of racquet vibrations, him watching the ball and more...
responding to lowwshay... good point, but you don't have to marry your forehand grip. Many people [including Federer] get around the problems w/ western by using different forehand grips at the right time. So you can get the topspin+height of western with all the versatility of an eastern.
Hmmm I still ...( 1 month ago by cpark02)
Hmmm I still respectfully disagree because unless I really saw his life and stasticially how many hours he practiced and played tournaments, your source of information could be a lie. No offense, I just find it hard to believe that he didn't work hard for this skill. He is no doubt amazing, but what you're telling me is that this person is so good that he didn't even practice to beat these people. That's incredulous. If you give me hard core evidence then I'll agree with you.

I've seen on TV show about the journey of Federer from a kid to the champion. It's Talent + hard work. Both! If clearer: Extreme Talent + Extreme Hard work!!!
Sorry, but Federer ...( 1 month ago by dmugger)
Sorry, but Federer DOES NOT use a western grip. It's in between a semi-western/eastern. The western grip can cause problems on low balls, but really any topspin forehand with feel creates similar problems. He just times it perfectly in that situation. The idea of Fed not working hard is ridiculous, he got to the semis in Australia with mono. You have to work damn hard for that.

Roger is motivated by breaking records now, titles dont mean that much to him he has won so many, he needs a bigger motivation. Roger will now go all out to do what he has too, as I think his health scare which affected his ability gave him a wake up call. I will not be surprised if we see a new vigorated Roger in 2009, stand back and watch the whirlwind.

Yes, it has some depth lately with the arrival of Djokovic, Murray, and especially Nadal's improvement on non-clay surfaces. I was referring to the period Roger dominated (2003-2007). Andy Roddick was his only consistent opponent in those years and I and others consider Roddick a serve-only mug. Obviously Federer won 12 out of 16 slams between 2003-2007 because he's good, but the lack of strength of the rest of the field helped him a great deal in my opinion.
