I never said Querrey could win a major event, I'm just affirming that he can get to the top 10.  I like Querrey's chances more than Isner either way.  Querrey is more rounded IMO.


he has a more rounded game, but the head just isn't there on some days, and the dude even admits it

seems like hes this generations equivalent of aaron krickstein tbh

Isner isn't really there either aside from a few notable matches, I still like Querrey's chances a lot more. While Querrey might not be there mentally all the time, Isner just plays some really horrific shots at times and his shot selection is appalling.

touche.. i think the problem with isner is his baseline game is actually pretty good on some days and then not even top 100 material on others, yet hes always trying to do his best and sometimes makes seemingly bizarre decisions to try and make shots that he simply shouldn't even be trying percentage-wise. also seems to have problems understanding both point construction and who his opponent is and what they are doing, and putting that all together, for very very long stretches.. a smarter (and even much less talented) opponent usually exposes this as the rallies get longer and longer.

i really do hope querrey gets it together though, he does have the tools.

Querrey definitely has the tools. I think he was the only player other than Nadal to win on every surface last year (aside from indoor/carpet). They were all 250 events, but still very notable.

You don't even use your feet :lol:


thats the most ignorant insult at football ever lol

maybe if you had extended to at least; 'you don't even use your feet to strike the ball'

which even so you'd be wrong

besides, familiarize yourself with the canadian football game ( which is an elder to the NFL ) and you will see kicks being utilized much more since you seem to have a fetish for that
