In one of many newest episodes of his podcast Served with, the American former star Andy Roddick talked about Juan Martin Del Potro’s profession, which he says may have been rather more essential, if there hadn’t been all these accidents, evaluating it to that of the Scottish champion Andy Murray.
“Without his injuries, he would have had a career like Murray’s: he was that good. He was that good. He would have won more Grand Slams. He’s better than players like me. He could beat the Big 3 at their best.
He could dominate the court with his forehand. When his forehand was perfect, it was the best shot on the court. You could literally hit a good ball and you knew there was a chance you were going to become a dummy watching the ball go past you on the next shot,” mentioned Roddick.

Del Potro who formally mentioned goodbye to tennis two weeks in the past, in an exhibition match in opposition to Novak Djokovic. The Argentine wrote a really heartfelt social put up to thank his good friend Nole, who flew to Buenos Aires for his farewell match to tennis. And they’re phrases stuffed with friendship and gratitude.
“Dear Nole, I don’t have enough words to thank you for everything you’ve done for me since that day at dinner in Miami, when you accepted this great folly of coming to my farewell here in Argentina, despite your very complicated season. From that moment until the day you left my country, you showed a generosity that I will never forget.
Your presence not only made this event unforgettable for me and my family, but transcended tennis. An entire country was able to enjoy and be excited with you, and it was clear that you are not only the greatest in history in sport, but also in life. Argentina loves you and we will be eternally grateful for the show, generosity and dedication you have put in to make this day perfect,” wrote the Argentine champion.
