What is interesting about Jim Courier is that his analyzes are always tinged with technique and respect for the players whose developments they comment on. It must be said that his track record but also his experience plead in his favor.
Regarding the return of Federer, the American does not express any real doubts about the ability of the Swiss offered a high-level tennis. On the other hand, he thinks that Roger will have to have even more in mind to shorten the exchanges and this taking into account his knee, and also his age: « The magic of Roger Federer with a racket will be intact. He won’t have lost his racquet skills, but the big X factor is movement. He had two knee surgeries, and the comeback couldn’t come as quickly as Roger and his team had hoped. Roger has often offered a tennis where he shortens the rally, and I think he will have to play even more with one stroke of the racket than usual, which is what I call a one stroke game. Whatever happens, we have to be grateful to see him on the pitch again, he’s so unique to watch ”
