    7:23 was probably the most important shot of Federer's career - facing break point against Haas in 2009 RG 4th round with Haas being 2 sets up and having break point in the 3rd set at 4-3 - and it was old faithful that delivered.

    I'm still of the opinion that you can only pull off the banana shot as consistently as Rafa has if you have an incredible sense of balance and stability. Especially in the core area. Rafa has an incredible sense of balance and stability that I believe contributed to a lot of the incredible and powerful shots he hits.

      The dropshot is lethal BECAUSE Alcaraz's forehand is so big. The opponent is pushed back into the court and they're expecting another bullet of a forehand then Carlos drops a gentle dropshot in front of the net. Deadly.

    Honestly Federer's inside out forehand is not a signature shot at all. Everyone hits those very frequently, and Fed wasn't the first to create it. Novak's sliding backhand and nadal's banana forehand are vintage signature shots. If you have to put one for Roger, I'd say SABR is more unique to him.
