Do u think dat Bagdhatis and Murray will have da game to trouble Federer and Nadal in future years.?

Answer 1

No doubt about that.

Answer 2

I'm not so sure about Bagdhatis, he played Federer in the Australian Open final this year, and was dismissed routinely. Although Murray did be Federer in Cincy.....I don't see Murray beating him on the regular just as yet, but Murray has all the tools to be a top 5 player in the future.

The player that messtograves is refering to is Gasquet, he does have a bright future also, love his game....he's one to look out for in the very near future.

Answer 3

I am sure Bagdhatis will be a trouble for them in coming future. Don't you watch the Australian final this year? Federer almost lose at that game. He beated Heiwett at semi quad final in Wimbleton.

He runs fast, his angle shots really a trouble for every players. What he need to improve is his fitness. He performs best in first 2 sets but sharply turn down in the set 3. Probably will lose the game if it is a five set game. He will be a trouble for Federer if he fixes this kind of problems.

Murray is just another Tim Henman. Beaten Federer once this year is meaningless. Ferderer is not saint, he will lose finally. Just depends on who he will lose. However, I don't think that Murray can be a trouble in future. He is just overvalued by the British media.

By the way, I think Bagdhatis can be one of the final 4 in US open.

Answer 4

Well since Murray just tuned Fed in Canada I would say he is a comer. Baghdhatis , I just do not know. Neither one of these guys has the weapons of a Nadal or Fed. There just seems to be something missing from his mental make up. Maybe he is to nice. The men are unreal. Byrdych , Blake , Roddick , Ribero all still remain factors. There is that young Frenchman also. I am forgetting now, but he punishes his groundies.

Answer 5

Djokovic has no weaknesses from the baseline, and so these long baseline rallies can go either way him and Nadal. He has the best backhand in the game as well as the best return now. With Federer, you know that if Nadal keeps hitting loopy topspin to his backhand, eventually he is going to cough up an error. It is too hard for someone with a one-handed backhand to handle balls over their shoulder when Nadal is squealing like a monkey and scraping forehands worthy of kick serves at 5000 RPM lol. And so Nadal always serves to Fed's backhand and tries to hit most rally shots there as well. It's just a match-up problem for Fed that he could never fully solve. With Djokovic, his only weak point with Nadal was his mentality. Now he believes in himself on every surface. He now leads the hard court H2H and finals H2H with Nadal.

Answer 6

Good questions.

Baghdatis and Murray both have a great shot to give Federer and Nadal problems. The funny part is both can give Federer more problems than Nadal. Let me explain.

Starting with Marco Baghdatis. He lost to Federer in the Australian Open final and has made some consistent strides in the ranks. However, he has seemed content to rest on his laurels as a Slam finalist and we have not seen improvement in his game. Baghdatis is a fighter and will doggedly run down almost anything in any given point. This frustrates Federer and in some cases will get under Nadals skin as well. However, this alone will not win against them. Baghdatis has an attacking game that works only when absolutely everything is on. When he's on. Anyone is in trouble. He's starting to remind me of a Marat Safin (talent-wise) with no temper and less of a chance to break down on the court. The top 10 players are separated from the rest of the Top 25 only in the belief that they belong on top. Baghdatis will only be one of the Top 10 if he focuses on improving his self-belief and ability to play percentage tennis and use variety to generate winners.

Murray has a different game altogether. Murray has the ability to play powerful tennis. However, he is content to keep the ball in paly and wait for a mistake. This is a deadly combination. Imagine the steadiness of David Nalbandian with the ability to generate powerful winners when necessary. Also, this kid will chase down balls even when tired beyond belief. As his most recent Masters Series performances will show. Murray needs to focus on fitness. Increasing his fitness will close the hole in his game and provide with that edge. Having Brad Gilbert as a coach is the right move to make. His game is a game of patience. Brad is a genius at tecahing people who have no big weapons how to win. When Roddick and Gilbert were together the only weapon Roddick has was a big serve. While it ws good for cheap points, Roddick got in trouble once people learned to read his serve. The wonderful thing about Murray is that he has extremely good down the line forehands and backhands and the game of patience necessary to set them up. This will trouble Federer and Nadal more than Baghdatis's game which is focus on powerful shots everywhere in the court.

Federer is troubled by two things from Nadal. First, Nadal's extreme topspin lefty forehand naturally exposes the one weakness in Federer's backhand with a one-handed backhand the ball must be met early off the ground to avoid it bouncing too high. Nadal's forehand bounces so high from the point of contact Federer has no choice but to meet it at a weaker spot. Second, Nadal will chase down anything.

Nadal is only beat by pure artistry on the court. Few possess that skill. Federer and James Blake are both in the Top 5. Murray has an artist's game as well. The ability to move the ball around and make angles that previously did not exist, This is what makes champions. At the top of her game Serena Williams had unbelievable power, but she won because of the horribly crisp angles she created out of thin air. Venus Williams was second only because she did not have the fight to get to every shot liek Serena did, but she had the same ability. I still remember the one-handed running backhand that flew past Kim Clijsters at the net in the 2003 Wimbledon semi-final. The funny part about that shot is that Venus Williams has a two-handed backhand.

Answer 7

I'm not to sure about Bagdhatis i don't think he will get much better than he is now.
As long as Murray calms down a bit and the English press don't f*** him up like they did to Henman he will give anyone in the world alot of trouble....(future no 1)

Answer 8

Murray will definitely after beating federer in America 6-4 6-4 or something like that. And god id die to meet that man he is the best, and Scottish =D

Answer 9

i don't think that baghtatis will not give any trouble he has meeted with both in the grand slams and eventually he lost
murray now he turning out to be a great player and the youngest person

Answer 10

I am sure they will. Didn't Murray just beat Federer?

Answer 11

No..I don't think so. They seem to be doing fine, but there's still very good players..like Blake, Roddick and Garquet..are in the field...doing just fine like them..but have much more experience..
