This guy is full of raw talent, a bit more focus will get him the consistency he needs to become undefeatable. Btw, his backhand is the nicest single hand backhand i’ve seen, and he’s got his own unique jumping backhand, and it’s usually very powerful and accurate!
It makes me so angry that shapo isnt exploding like he should, amazing player, mad talent... but he isnt getter better, sometimes i even think past shapo was better
I wouldn't say so, his match against Nadal in Rome this year was really amazing. And he played well at Wimbledon as well. But I share the same feeling: he's far from the level he should reach.
I think he mentally can't maintain form. When he sees success, the pressure of expectations seem to get to him. Honestly, I feel that's the biggest issue with most modern players (and why the big three are so dominant).
Like so many flashy players, his game depends too much on mood and timing. When they're not 100%, he has no plan B. It's all or nothing with him, and too often it's nothing.
