are you sure though? Don't get me wrong, Stan's awesomely great, but... If you don't only consider bh (both average and peak), but also the (average and peak) fh, the (avervge and peak) serve, the movement on the court and the aggression in the overall playing style? I mean he has one of the most powerful bhs (but e.g. Thiem and Gasquet have an even more powerful one) but he's not among the most powerful with respect to fh, serve, movement on the court etc So I'm not sure how you would put him in a general "top top" position tbh...
@@michaelhafer1710 but you ALL REALIZE THAT stan uses special HEAVIER RACQUET???. thiem and federer with such racquet wouldnt serve and have back/forehand like they have usually..comparing speed is useless.Thiem and others use lighter racquets.Stans strenght comes from him, not from racquet, thats the point..... Thiem or federer with such heavy thing would play like shit.
@@miguelbarahona6636 Yes, Gonzalez lost that match and argentina never had a Nº1 player, well shit happens, but in the case of argentina, will keep happening for a long, long, long time!
Or Marin Cilic and Marat Safin. Cilic and Del Potro's matches were so hard hitting. Their 5 set match in the Laver cup was literally, if not the best, one of the best matches ever played and that I've ever seen. I mean it was better than most of the epic Federer- Nadal or Nadal - Djokovic matches
Yep, and they can beat all these players too. They just lie to the public and disguise themselves as 3.5 players recreationally. They really are the best in the world and are just holding back fooling everyone because they don't want the fame. I believe them all too.
I‘m glad James Blake got some love. My favorite player of all time since his unbelievable comeback after that horrific incident. His matches against Nadal were epic! 🔥
Gaetan Frobert well, you can’t disagree that he is improving very fast, he will be much better than he is now, even though he is already a great player
Fun fact: if you watch the ATP video about the fastest ATP winners last year, he's the one with the third most super fast winners (and one of 3 players who managed to do it with both their bh and fh). Lol Leverage I guess.. (By far on No. 1 is Thiem, followed by Shapovalov, followed by Zverev)
@@JasminGardenia Yeah he hits pretty fast indeed. His serve (when he passes the first) and his diagonal backhand are pretty nice, no one can take that from him.
I think Stan should be top 5, you gotta consider that like Gonzalez he wasn't tall, both of them were 5'11-6ft tall, most of the players here are 6'2 or taller Delpo Soderling Safin Tsonga Thiem Lendel With Blake and Nadal being 6'1
I would have expected to see Stan higher on the list, since he can hit the ball hard from both wings (probably from the list, on the active player Dom is the only one who can do that too). Super happy with the first position, and that last point is such a classic!
@@Leo-nc3yx Are you kidding his forehand is feared by a bunch of players. And if he did not get all these injuries, I think he would have like at least 5 majors by now with that lethal shot.
@@dimitrig369 Well,first of all my response is for Diego not you. Secondly , I don't think power and speed alone measure up to be the only element for a great forehand. Overall control,precision,spin,defense, angles etc ... are also important matters in my book .I don't think both Gonzalez and Del Potro got those covered.
Tsonga´s ball speed on the forehand side comes more from perfect timing and technique than from raw power. He is the guy with the more compact strokes on the list. (That is a compliment considering how strong he is!). Guys like Verdasco and Kyrgios can also brutalize the ball like very few can.
Id like to point out, a number of these power players, guys like Blake, Gonzo and even DelPo are known for their power almost exclusively on one side of the wing. True blue power hitters from both wings would be guys like: Soderling, Joachim Johanssen, Safin, Rosol, Basilashvili, Cilic, Giraldo, Gulbis, Kuznetsov, Berdych etc.
Blake had an excellent backhand, very powerful and a great baseline spike, DelPo before injuring his wrists had a VERY powerful backhand, with the passage of time and many surgeries, he lost power
@@blasl944 Been watching DelPo from his early days, strong backhand but i wouldn't call it VERY POWERFUL. It packed a punch sure, not a weakness by any means. But guys like Safin and even Rosol hit a lot harder from the backhand side. And Blake? Cant say i agree, he was way too inconsistent with his BH and it wasnt as consistent as his FH in terms of accuracy or power.
@@Irfan87 I agree with Blake's backhand not being up to the level of other backhands. Not one of the best one-handers. Better than Gonzalez' backhand though.
@@miguelbarahona6636 Yes, Gonzalez lost that match and argentina never had a Nº1 player, well shit happens, but in the case of argentina, will keep happening for a long, long, long time!
Some of these players only have good forehands, so even if Stan doesn't have the biggest forehand he should still be higher for having an amazing forehand and backhand.
This is like saying who hits the hardest forehands because they show only a few backhands. They should consider both wings. With that in mind, I think Wawrinka should be in the top 5.
With all due respect, my friend: they did consider both wings, otherwise Stan would not be in the Top 10. amazing player but he does not have one of the most powerful forehands in the game (same with his serve)
Somehow I expected Kyrgios to be in here. Not sure about his exact power but I do remember some of his insane powerfull forehands in beijng, toronto and cincianatti
There's a difference between power and speed/pace. You can hit a very fast flat shot like Fognini, but these guys are hitting every shot with power, even on shots that are not flat.
No one disagrees with #1 and 2 :-) Blake should be #3 (put the two USO returns against Jesse Huta Gulang in there) Joachim Johansson has to be 3 or 4. The back2back Gonzo returns against Bobby Reynolds got to be in here. And Cmon, Nadal, really? The greatest slow court dirt baller of all time. Might as well put Monfils or Verdasco in there instead And where's my man Gilles Simon? 🙂
the Gonzales returns against Bobby Reynolds was sick, and happened more than a one time in the same match, you are a connoisseur, take your like good sir.
Great upload! A lot of big forehands on this list, would’ve liked to have seen Phillipoussis and Joachim Johannson on there. In my opinions those 2 legends had the ability to generate power from serve, forehand and backhand the best. Which means most powerful player in my mind. Thoughts?
James Blake was a wild pick. I think Sock or Rublev could have been on this list. Also, you can't compare two very different generations, Lendl was powerfull but nowadays he wouldn't even be on the top 10.
I know it sounds funny but I think that Nikoloz Basilashvili has pretty powerful groundstrokes.For me he definetly deserves to be on this list.He is hitting hard both FH and BH from baseline.Watched a video something like “Strongest groundstrokes player” and he was that player.
I think thiem is the strongest rn. Can generate so much power from both wings, while players like delpo and Gonzales could generate incredible power from the forehand but not as much from the backhand. Still two really powerful players.
I'm not sure Nadal should be on here. Sure, when he swings freely and drives through the ball, he can hit it hard, but so can any other pro. 99% of the time, Nadal is looping his shots. I think this list should be comprised of guys that consistently hit it hard and flat.
@@robinsoncruise2228 Dude with all due respect: Do you even know what that word means? You low key sound like a boomer who's trying to be "cool". You paste that word everywhere, but it never fits
seriously though, how do you differentiate between "powerful" players and players with "good technique"? Federer could vaporize forehands and backhands yet no one thinks of him as a "powerful player" Murray has hit the fastest recorded forehand and could blast backhand winners like no one's business yet he's not considered a "powerful player" as well
Good point. It all comes down to how fast the ball is travelling, no matter how a player achieves it. My second thought is that it's easier to call a player "powerful" when the power is his main weapon. As you mentioned, Federer or Murray can both vaporize the ball, but this is generally not seen as their trademark because they're much more versatile.
Guys, we need to define what power is. I think we easily forget about ball RPM? Because I think Rafa is the most powerful man on Tour. Like he can hit the ball at 5000 RPM at high speed!!! No one can beat this. You can see how much power it implies when he hit the ball and this is insane.
my top 10 1. Pancho Gonzales 2. Korda 3. Stich 4. Ivanisecvic 5. Krajicek 6. Sampras 7. Escude 8. Safin 9. F. Gonzales 10. Tanner we need to mention: Phillipoussis Verkerk Rublev Rusedski Edberg Becker McEnroe I dont know why last two on list are Becker and McEnroe - they can be on top :)
At first I thought why is Gonzo ahead of Delpo? Watching those ultra power shots I understand why! He was hitting those balls like he was mad about something...sheesh! I would have never thought Lendl would be part of this lineup. 😊
In the last Gonzalez clip he tagged Stepanek with a forehand at 120mph. If you slow the clip down it doesn't even look like he hit the ball out of the sweet spot. Imagine if he middled it; he could have added another 5-10mph on that. That's a scary thought.
Expecting some calm and rational debate below this one 👀

Absolutely. It sucks that he has been sidelined so many times due to injuries. I love watching Delpo play. His Olympic run is was stellar!
Wouldn't it be big 5 then?
Delpo has many weakness in his game...backand, net play and mouvement ! ( comparing to the best players) stan murray are way better
@@romainmj7245 U should have seen his backhand before his wrist. He could only slice the past couple of years
His volleys are actaully pretty good. And his defense although hes slow he covers it up well
