Great analysis as always. Alcaraz definitely to me looks technique wise a lot like Fed and Nadal. Great point about how Nadal has tweaked his forehand, as you pointed out, elbow a bit lower in order to get his racquet tip upright in preparation, in order to shorten his racquet work to give himself more time. I personally do not think the next gen racquet tip facing forward really adds any racquet head speed, but these Alcaraz Sock Kyrgios Sinner forehands are something.
Now that you've seen the comparison between the two, who's forehand do you prefer? Do you think Alcaraz will change his forehand technique like Rafa did over the years? -Jason Frausto
It takes a genius to hit like Nadal. Alcaraz's forehand is more replicable for normies. If Alcaraz does not change his forehand technique over the years, he will be out of the game.
@@nickyb12345 I feel that the way nadal hits his forehand, his timing, his stamina and spin is not replicable by anyone. We have not seen baby nadal yet. Alcaraz's forehand has been replicated. th-cam.com/video/mIS-3CgHH5w/w-d-xo.html Big 3 has changed their forehand throughout the years to stay on top of the competition. It's impossible to stay on top without adapting and changing
I think Alcaraz's forehand could be the greatest forehand we've ever seen in the future but I think at the mo, Rafa gets,the nod with his forehand as it is so devastating. And yes I think Carlos will tweak his forehand over the years so he can get more out of it. Even Feds forehand has changed over the years. The very best always keep improving and that's why they are the best.
I did Alcaraz forehand and gave to much shoulder, wrist, and back problems because of that inverted raquet; it hurts me a lot so I change at hows Rafa does that is a more natural raquet position; any suggest
There are definitely things in common between Fed and Alcaraz. This was more of a Spanish champion vs Spanish rising star comparison. Thanks for watching. -Jason Frausto
It dosen't resemble to any of the both cause Alcaraz use an inverted forehand backswing and Nadal either Federer use the tip of the raquet up in their backswing; Alcaraz is more close to Djokovic that use either an inverted raquet backswing in his forehand
Alacraz gets thru the swing faster because his racquet swing weight is like 322. Nadals swing weight is like 370. This means Alcaraz has to swing alot faster to make up for that power.
@@TennisUnleashed either Rafa's cause the take back is more simple and cause less injuries because of the inverted raquet of Alcaraz backswing. And which one do you prefer betwen Rafa's and Kyrgios for the actual game¿?

Great breakdown, I’m a big Rafa forehand fan myself, all that spin in crazy 😳
Agreed. Carlos is playing great tennis and hits incredible lasers with his forehand but I still prefer Rafa's.

Can you pls do Tomas Etcheverry…. It appears to be his forehand is simple and old school style.. Nice Video
Hey Jason, great video as always. I know you do a lot of singles analysis, but I was wondering if you could do some doubles?
I second that!
Thanks J.J. I’ll definitely add it to “to do list”. Thanks for watching

Always good to see Jeremy in the comments section :).

Do you prefer Delpo's or Ferrer's backswing forehand for today's game¿?
In which forehand backswing you can find more consistency with less mistakes in Alcaras or Nadal's? and why

Great video, but what about the grip?
Thank you. I'll make a "short" on their forehand grips. Thanks for watching.

Alcaraz forehand resembles Federer more than Nadal.

@@TennisUnleashed Agree. he is compared most to Nadal because of his spanish roots but technically more similar to Federer

Which backswing do you prefer for the game at this moment¿?
Good question. I'll take Rafa's. A little shorter and more compact in the beginning stages. Who's would you take?
