Topspin: Carlsson, Nadal and Bruguera.
Slice: Federer.

Heaviest topspin
I saw a thread addressing this a few weeks back, but the writer wasn't referring to "junk" in its tennis sense. However, I liked the idea, and have decided to start a thread that refers junk in its true meaning. The thought behind this thread is quite simple: who puts the heaviest topsin and/or slice on the ball, and (as a secondary question) who uses incredibly heavy topspin and/or slice most effectively.
I would appreciate your thoughts and thank you in advance.

Santoro's slice can be pretty wicked too
Grosjean has a mean slice.
Andreev can also get some wicked topspin.
Roddick is a master of both the slice backhand and heavy topspin forehand.
I go with Roger Federer for the heavest spin and Nadal for the slice.
reverse thatI go with Roger Federer for the heavest spin and Nadal for the slice.
Pretty sure the guy was kidding...reverse that
Santoro for the slice...
Today Nadal and Andreev I would say.
Alberto Berasategui and Sergi Bruguera in the past.
I'd go with Nadal for the consistent use of heaviest topspin. Slice, I don't know, Fed and Santoro.
Andreev and Nadal, and probably in that order, at least in terms of topspin relative to the other parts of their game
you got it. Clay Monster has the heaviest topspin forehand in history. nobody else comes close. damn near the same deal with his backhand.I'd go with Nadal for the consistent use of heaviest topspin. Slice, I don't know, Fed and Santoro.
Kent Carlsson has more topspin than any player in history.
I nominate either James Blake or Marquis de Sod for LEAST topspin (off top of my head, at least)
Emilio Sanchez had an excellent slice! Seriously, Federer uses the slice most efficiently. For many players, slice is just a weak ball with no pace and speed but Federer has a very deep and fast slice. He could use it more though.
As for topspin, I'd have to go with Nadal. But sometimes even his shots are too short and land on the service line.

Nadal when it comes to forehands no doubt. I'd say Federer for topspin backhand.
Kent Carlsson.
Santoro for the slice.
Santoro for the slice.
PMK's man Carlsson and I remember Sergei B. having more topspin that Nadal but they'd be pretty similar.
Pat Rafter had a brutal slice on every stroke when he wanted.

Bruguera did get more RPMs on the ball than Nadal does now. The question is who hit the most topspin, not whose was more effective.
