This kid is un-freaking-believable !!!
I had only heard about his game before, last night was the first time
I SAW his game, it was most impressive, now I understand how he could
beat Fed.
With that kind of talent, he can literary beat ANYONE, just like when
Safin is on.
He hit a few out-of-this-world backhand screamers from 10 feet behind
the baseline that made me sick, I had NEVER seen anything like that,
and the amazing thing is that it wasn't a fluke either, he could hit
that shot like a routine shot.
He can also hit screamers from his forehand as well.
This kid is crazy!!!
But then the question is can this kid mature from shot-maker into
match contender? Namely, can he reign in his incredible powers and
become a champion? It requires making better shot selection and smart
tectical and strategic decision making? It requires mental tenacity
and match experience, and it does NOT come automatically with age
either.
