his fore hand is so unique. ive never seen any player hit like him. somehow he finishes the swing below his shoulder, contrary to what most tennis schools teach. i guess that is only possible if you hit the ball particularly early, as we all know federer does. the whole swing motion is transported to the front.
lol the guy in black sucks conpared to federer in the white, no one hit the two-handet backhand like fed, his signature shot, just sad he has a bad serve!
I am not a 100% sure, but I think it is Marco Chiudinelli (they both grew up in Basel and they both were ball boys at this tournament when they were young).
roger and chiudinelli play double at basel this year (roger said that in an interview yesterday)..
thxs. for the vid. The way federers playing right now, so confidently, I can see him making it to the final. Beating Nadal.....50/50.... but all i want to c is a good match between the 2. :)
such consistency.....

@chrism216 most players finish below their left shoulder. they brush up so much that it makes a windshield wiper motion.

@chrism216 his forehand is not unique. 80% of players i know finish below their shoulder

Their share the court for better training (control) as you can see their hit more than 10 balls without interference each other.
