The slice is a wonderful shot that isn't talked about enough. Roger and Andy both have incredible slices, but whose are better?

 

[ProdigyEng]

Probably Fed's, utilises it more for attacking play whilst Andy mainly uses it for defence.

 

[Lacabra]

Roger, not even close.

 

[Waz]

Roger's although Mugray's slice is also very good.

 

[Fastgrass]

Both Dimitrov and Federer have better slice than Murray, probably two best backhand slice shots on tour now.

 

[M.Bison]

Close but Federer.

Sadly the slice isn't effective on most of the courts on the tour. Its really nice to see on grass though.

 

[Jam]

Fed's is better, but considering Murray has a 2HBH his slice is excellent.

 

[Sapeod]

Roger's, though not by much. They have the two best slices on tour anyway, that's for sure.

I agree Roger's is better, but Andy still has a killer slice. His is more defensive though whereas Roger often uses it to attack.

 

[Tutsi Frutsi]

Murray's by a mile.

no, they do not. Dolgopolov has best slice on the tour, bot bh and fh. Tomic is close second. Federer might be third. well, Federer from 2 yrs ago might be 3rd... Stepanek and Dimitrov also have better slice then Murray. maybe Lopez too... Murray is way off top of the chart when we are talking about slice. no variety, using it exclusively as def shot to get back in position, no speed or different rotations... it is good def shot, and it is reliable, but as i said, not even near the top of the chart, and surely not top 2.

 

[MWW]

Federer has natural versatility with it, ability to chip charge, awesome changeup tool and defense as well.
I admire some of the angles he generates with it at times, making it awkward for his opponents, quite effective on grass and hard courts.

:lol:

luv such threads

 

[duarte_a]

GOAT hands down, no debate.

 

[TheBigFourFTW]

Federer of course. Other than Nalbandian, I don't think any player with a 2 handed backhand has a slice as good as Murray though.

 

[Mountaindewslave]

Federer by far although he uses it tactically maybe not as well as in the past. of course Roger does everything worst than the past, except maybe serving... I see nothing that exceptional about the Murray slice

 

[Firstservingman]

Federer.

Murray's by a mile.

Quick question - have you ever actually watched a tennis match?
