Huge fan of the site.
As a potential topic for further examination, would you mind reviewing the del Potro forehand in the near future? As far as the modern forehands go, it seems like a more easy stroke to emulate than the Sampras, Federer, Nadal and Roddick forehands. The machinations are very understandable (like Agassi) and in many ways, it seems like a classic Lansdorp forehand (grip, racquet on edge, size of swing etc). Furthermore, the majority of his finishes tend to be "out front" or reverses. At the same time, he is able to generate a lot of spin on his stokes when necessary.
Where does his forehand fit in the broader universe of the modern forehands (Nadal, Djokavic, Federer)? I would welcome any thoughts or viewpoints from the broader community on this stroke.
Also, As you think of candidates to add to the stroke archive, please consider JM.
Thanks!
