This is probably the greatest question I have ever heard from a tennis channel interviewer. All tennis players have fought with many battles on court, but the biggest difference between players who made it to the top-tier rank and those who haven't is not the ones who have the biggest sword, it is the ones who understand the most about opponent’s moves and strategies. “Know your enemy and know yourself.” ― Sun Tzu, The Art of War.

If you can own a player’s technique, which would you want the most?



I would really want Karlović's serve!

I would really want to have Isner's serve!

Maybe I will pick Nishikori's backhand. That Karlović's serve will be nice to have!

I will pick Monfils’s footwork.

Federer's netplay of course.

Looks like tennis players care about their serves a lot. Of course, who doesn't want to end an opponent in "1,2,3" with a perfect serve? Anyone knows that less injury means a longer sports career, which Rodger Federer is the perfect sample of. A man who is 34 years old and still working on his 19 years of tour, but still kind of hopes he could have a better serve. On the other side, Japanese fans tweeted that they are happy to hear he commented on their beloved tennis player Kei Nishikori, who now is at number 7 world rank, and preparing for his Quarterfinal with number 1 rank leading Novak Djokovic in the Australia Open.

Best of luck, Nishikori!
