Who Is Going to Win Australian Open 2010-Biomechanical Point of View

Jan. 8, 2010 - PRLog -- Juan Martin Del Potro’s matches against Roger Federer in 2009:
(i)   Embarrassing loss at the Australian Open;
(ii)   Close defeat at the French Open;
(iii)   Win at the US Open; and
(iv)   Win in the ATP World Tour Finals.
Simply put, Del Potro has very quickly learned how to win against the world number one and greatest tennis player of the Open Era. In addition, he beat Rafa Nadal in straight sets – when it really mattered. This shows the learning capability of his tennis brain. That is why he is my favourite to win the 2010 Australian Open.
Biomechanically speaking, although Del Potro has a pretty strong serve and a consistent double-handed backhand, his strongest weapon is his capability to hit a dynamic forehand-winner  (against the two best returns in the game, Federer and Nadal) – in the full run, without any static preparation, despite standard advice from textbooks: “first loading, then hitting”. Del Potro can hit his 160+ km/h forehand without any static “loading”. His “sling-shot” return can seriously upset both Federer and Nadal, as well as any other player. His movement on the court is very good, despite his body height of 198 cm. That is further why he is my favourite candidate to win the Australian Open 2010.

I remark here that, from a biomechanical and neuro-physiological point of view, Del Potro is not yet a fully developed tennis player. He has yet to learn the full biomechanical kinetic chains based on muscular stretch reflex. After that, he will be invincible.
