Tennis Random, Random (On Court)

[ashkor87]

Movement is so important in tennis, especially on faster courts..how would you rate the movement and footwork of the top players today?

Just to take a stab at it (movement and footwork ONLY!)
on a scale of 1-10 (10 being the best)
Coco - 10 (Barty would be there if she were playing today)
Swiatek 9
Pegula, Sakkari, Alexandrova, Bencic -8
Rybakina - 7
Sabalenka, Keys - 6
Samsonova 5

On the men's side:

Alcaraz 10
Sinner, Murray, Monfils 9
Ruud, Rune, FAA -8
Zverev, Hurkacz, Berretini 6
Fritz - 5

your thoughts?

your thoughts?

Djokovic? Medvedev? You think Hurkacz and Fritz are better movers?

[ashkor87]

No, I just didn't include everybody...go ahead and rate them as you see fit...

[ptmcmahon]

Pun intended?

[ponchi101]

On a hard court, does anybody move better than Deminaur?
Rybakina at 7 I can't agree.
If you give Swiatek a 9, Sakkari gets it too.
Coco at 10, a bit too much.

And I say that the list would mean 10 compared to other current players. I still say Borg was the best mover ever.

Yes, I meant in the current crop.. I would say Laver was a better mover than Borg but it is close..

[ashkor87]

Rybakina at 7 I can't agree.

do you mean 7 is too high or too low? If too high, I agree..

Too high. Her movement is her weakness.
