How they play

Playing style

All-court player with big serve and powerful forehand as main weapon, solid depth on both groundstrokes, and good court coverage. Excels on indoor hard courts where he has eight of nine titles. Aggressive style charging forward after serve, but vulnerable to deep returns forcing defensive errors in extended rallies due to tight positioning.

Serve
Big first serve with high ace rates around 10%, effective placement; second serve reliable but targeted by deep returns. Indoor hard maximizes serve effectiveness.
Groundstrokes
Forehand weapon with heavy topspin, semi-western grip, racket lag for power and spin; backhand solid with depth but less penetrative, prone to errors under pressure.
Movement
Quick for 6'4\" frame, covers court well defensively, flexible for power generation; prefers faster surfaces but adapts to clay.
Weakness
Aggressive net approach after serve exposes him to deep returns, leading to tight play, unforced errors, and losses in longer rallies where baseline game lacks consistency against top returners.
