Első Gs döntőjét megnyerte 20 évesen. 0-1 majd 1-2 es szettek állásáról, a legyőzhetetlennek hitt 41-0-ás US open győztes mutatóval rendelkező 15* GS bajnok Federert, aki legeredményesebb férfi teniszezője a világnak. Új csillag született, nem kérdés!
2009 US open döntő eredménye:
Del Potro-Federer 36 76 (4) 46 76 (3) 62
Time to go home to rest. Once again, thank you very much for all the love and support that you give me during these difficult times. A big hug for everyone! 🤗🙏🥰
Bízzuk rá, majd eldönti... Mi meg elfogadjuk, mivel mást nem tehetünk.
A bal csuklóját hányszor műtötték? Úgy látszik csak az első műtét volt sikeres (jobb csukló) a többit ismételni kellett. Igaz, az elsőnél mire rájöttek mi a baj, jó sok idő elment addig totojásztak..
"az egész testével nem oké valami szerintem:/" Csuklók és a jobb térd, az nem az egész teste, de nem szeretnék kötözködni.
Ma megvolt a műtét, állítólag jól sikerült (nyáron is ezt mondták) később lesz hivatalos értékelés.
Mivel nem pusztán a sportolásban, hanem a mindennapi teendőkben is fájdalmat érez, tudjuk ez mit jelent...:/ Nagy küzdő meg sosem adja fel, de úgy érzem jobb lenne neki is nekünk is túlesni a bejelentésen.
Mi is, és az egész teniszvilág sokat veszített a sérüléseivel, nem tudjuk meg mi lett volna ha...Amúgy hihetetlen, hogy a 14-16-os időszak után képes volt visszatérni, és 2 év alatt a ranglidta 3. helyére repülni masters címmel, olimpiai és Uso döntővel. Ja meg persze DC győzelemmel.
Ilyen szintű műtétsorozat már nem lehet annak az egy esésnek az oka, az egész testével nem oké valami szerintem:/
"Legalább megmagyarázhatnák, hogy nem sikerült 1,5 év alatt egy elesést rendbe hozni..."
Szerintem erre hiába várunk, az is lehet, hogy Delpoék sem tudják.
Én már nagyjából elengedtem ezt az egészet, nem látom mi változhatna, ha még most megvan a fájdalom. Ráadásul Delpón sem látom, hogy nagyon próbálkozna. Mi pedig szép lassan beletörődünk.
Olvasgattam közben, hogy másnak viszont aligha tudunk örülni:/ Pedig mindig azt hittem, hogy happy end lesz a sztori vége, de most talán közelebb vagyunk a véghez mint valaha:( Legalább megmagyarázhatnák, hogy nem sikerült 1,5 év alatt egy elesést rendbe hozni...
@delpotrojuan is still feeling pain in his right knee and seeking alternate solutions. His health is our priority, so we are not posting updates on his tournament schedule at this time.
Ez a hír várható volt, hogy nem játszik Ausztráliában. (semmi aktivitást nem mutatott hetek óta)
Ennél sokkal aggasztóbb a helyzet.
Ez a térdfájdalom nem tudom mennyire "normális" , szerintem semennyire. Mondanám, hogy várjuk meg Delray Beach-et, de ha januárban fáj, akkor februárban is fájni fog.
"I'm clearly getting old, but I still feel I have enough strength to play tennis well. I certainly don't expect to come back in top 10 after all these problems. It won't be easy to repeat what happened in 2018.
But who knows, at the moment when I should feel fit." Juan Martin del Potro has not lost confidence and looks to the future with his typical mental strength. An injury to the patella at Queen's – the second after his injury at the Shanghai Masters in 2018 – put many doubts about the future of Delpo in the world of tennis.
From Shanghai up to Queen's, del Potro played only five tournaments In addition to recovering from a double serious injury, the Argentinian will also have to recover a lot from the mental point of view, as that was only the latest in a long series of serious injuries.
Not only that: he will have to regain confidence in the rhythm of the matches, in training and in facing old and new opponents. Del Potro will have to have so many motivations to come back again on the court, but there is something positive.
He always came back positively from his old serious injuries. Winning important titles and improving. Finally, there is the age factor. At 31 years-old, del Potro is still not old for a tennis player, despite his physical problems.
And he will have an example to follow: Andy Murray. The Scot's tenacity led him from a near-retirement from tennis to winning a new ATP title, and who knows what will happen in 2020 if Murray regains further physical shape and confidence!
Here. Del Potro can start again from here: the stories are different between him and Murray, but a tennis player like Argentinian, one of the most beloved by the crowds, is very important for the ATP Tour, for the thousand emotions he is able to give to fans, crowd, media and insiders.

usopenBest US Open matches of the 2010s. Juan Martín del Potro battles back from two sets down in the R16 to upset No. 6 seed Dominic Thiem in a crazy 5-set match full of highlights 🍿

Would there have been a Big Four, a Big Five in men’s tennis throughout men’s tennis in the 2010s – a more open competitive landscape, one less dominated by the Federer-Nadal-Novak Djokovic triumvirate? What might del Potro have accomplished in 2014-15, when he was in his mid-to-late twenties – traditionally a peak period for players – if he hadn’t been sidelined by that damn left wrist? Hypotheticals don’t win you a place on this list. And as much as it’s tempting to see del Potro as a tragic figure and define him in terms of unrealized potential, what’s missing in that view is a realistic assessment of how much he has accomplished, with all his injury problems, in this unbelievably tough era of men’s tennis. Twice this decade, del Potro has pulled off tremendous comebacks and made them look quite routine. After playing just six matches in 2010 and being prevented from defending his US Open title, he dropped as low as world no. 484 in February 2011; just weeks later, he won Delray Beach and made the semifinals of Indian Wells, ending that season inside the top 15.
But that comeback really pales in comparison to what he achieved after his 2014-15 layoff. In February 2016, he was ranked world no. 1,042 after playing only 14 matches over the past two years. Over the next few months, he hauled himself up to world no. 141 – and then came the tournament that played a huge role in getting him on this list: The Rio Olympics. Playing for Argentina has always been an incredible motivator for the man they call the ‘Tower of Tandil’, who in the semifinals of the London Olympics, on the grass of Wimbledon, dragged Federer all the way to 17-19 in the decider and came back the next day to win the bronze medal match against Djokovic. It was Djokovic who awaited del Potro in the first round in Rio – and again, it was del Potro who prevailed in straight sets, over the world no. 1. Before the tournament was through, he had also ousted Nadal in the semifinals in a grueling, bruising encounter, and fought Andy Murray to a standstill before finally capitulating in the gold medal match.
It was the silver medal nobody expected, and it earned del Potro precisely zero ranking points – but he went on to make the quarterfinals of the US Open, win the title in Stockholm, and play a crucial role for Argentina once again. In the Davis Cup semifinals, he beat Murray in five sets in front of a partisan Glasgow crowd; in the final, he beat Ivo Karlovic and fellow US Open champion Marin Cilic, and Argentina won the first Davis Cup in their history. In 2017, del Potro reached his fourth Grand Slam semifinal at the US Open, eliminating Federer on the way, and picked up more titles; in 2018, he compiled a 15-match winning streak in the spring as he picked up his first Masters 1000 Series title at Indian Wells, made the semifinals of Roland Garros, and reached his second Grand Slam final at the US Open, rising as high as world no. 3. Say it with me: This is how good Juan Martin del Potro is when he’s fit. This is how much of a factor he makes himself when he’s able to play. He joins Murray and peak Stan Wawrinka (and now potentially Dominic Thiem) in a very, very small group of players who is absolutely capable of beating any one of the Big Three any time they meet – and the Big Three all know it.
How does he do it? A decent serve for a 6’6” man, and a forehand so big and brutal it drives the breath from your lungs; very good movement for a man of his size, and something else – star quality. (The gentle giant, whose first language is mumbling, who mooches around with his shoulders slumped, is also the shameless showman who can set a crowd on fire and has repeatedly frustrated Roger Federer into fits of on-court temper, after all.) Juan Martin del Potro might have ended this decade with multiple major titles; instead, he looks very likely to end his career with just that one US Open to his credit, if he even manages to make it back from this latest injury to give his career one final act. But despite spending, essentially, four of the last ten years on the sidelines, he’s lit up the 2010s like almost nobody else. A US Open final, a career-high ranking of world no. 3, two comebacks from rankings well outside the top 400, Olympic silver, Olympic bronze, multiple wins over all of the Big Three, a Masters 1000 Series title, a Davis Cup and the unofficial title of ‘everybody’s second favourite player’: The man with the forehand made of thunder has made titans tremble for the best part of ten years. And it’s been electrifying.

The Best of the Rest: The Top 10 Men's Players of the Decade
It was the era of the Big 3, which saw Djokovic become the first ATP player to win all nine Masters 1000s, Nadal complete a career Golden Slam and Federer become the first man to reach the 20-Slam singles mark.
While statistics played a large part in assembling this list—only those amassed from January 2010 through the 2019 US Open were considered—the final order was ultimately subjective, based on the player’s impact throughout the decade.
Arguably the unluckiest player of the past 10 years—with a host of injuries, including three left wrist surgeries—del Potro is an incredible story of resilience. The Tower of Tandil guided Argentina to its maiden Davis Cup in 2016, won two Olympic medals and 15 ATP titles, including Indian Wells. His pure love of the game enabled a US Open final return in 2018, nine years after his major breakthrough
Igaz, hogy Delpo még 2010 előtt nyerte az USO-t, de azt is számításba vehették volna, hogy közel négy évet nem játszott, ami a visszakapaszkodások miatt még nehezebb volt...
