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
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...
Szia! Hivatalosan, se megerősítve, se cáfolva nincs az, hogy játszik A fél év Delpinél már nem is számít hosszú időnek, de visszaút csak akkor van, ha nem lesz fájdalom a térdében. Én is az vagyok (pesszimista), de ezen nem is lehet csodálkozni az eddig történtek után.
Időben belefér a "több hetes pályás edzés", az AO január 20-án kezdődik. Ettől még simán benne van, hogy nem játszik.
"Az a térd" jól megkínozza, de hogy is lehetne másképp! Ez a Dr. Cotorro, Nadal térdét (műtét nélkül), két hét alatt rakja rendbe, Delpo esetében hónapok telnek el...:/
Sajnos kezdem elveszíteni a visszatérésbe vetett bizalmam. Ez már nagyon-nagyon hosszú idő játék nélkül. Hogy van innen visszaút? Nehezen tudom elképzelni, bár nem ez lenne az első újrakezdés/visszatérés. Szóval kicsit pesszimista lettem (remélem csak én vagyok az). Ez kikívánkozott belőlem, de ha már leírtam, nem törlöm. Felejtsétek el.
Már ez is valami, hogy a teremben folyamatosan látjuk...Viszont az eddigi sémából kiindulva, innen még több hetes pályás edzés következik, szóval én nem számítok ausztráliai játékra. Nem is számít, csak jöjjön rendbe végre az a térd:/
Delpo is well and continues with the recovery process. I would aim to play one of the first tournaments of the year (it could be Doha between January 6 and 11), then arrive well profiled at the Australia Open, the first big event of the year.
Dohán igencsak meglepődtem, hogy honnan szedték. Sosem játszott ott.
The ATP 250 of Delray Beach announced Delpo's debut date in the tournament: Delpo, who has not yet returned to the courts, would play his first game on February 18 at 10 p.m. 🇦🇷
If there’s any player in tennis that knows what it takes to make a comeback, it’s Juan Martin del Potro. Ranked No. 123, the former No. 3 is one of a few former Top 10 players looking to 2020 as a comeback opportunity:
Here’s a look at several players who will be trying to return the familiar confines of the Top 10—or at least much higher than their current standings—in 2020.
If there’s any player in tennis that knows what it takes to make a comeback, it’s the Argentine. In 2018, del Potro was in the midst of one of the best seasons of his injury-plagued career before being sidelined by a knee issue toward the end of the year. He played some in 2019 before the knee gave him more problems, eventually sidelining him for the rest of the year. Del Potro has climbed back from the rankings hinterlands before on multiple occasions, and has the mind-set required to face such challenges. When he returns to the tour, he’ll be one of the most dangerous floaters in any draw—until he regains his place among the elite again.

In an interview, former Argentina's Davis Cup team captain Daniel Orsanic recalled Juan Martin del Potro's impact when they won the title back in 2016. Orsanic, referring to the Tandil native, said: "Unfortunately there were just a few seasons where he ended up being healthy.
He is a great guy and being injury-free he would have been the number one in the world. When he won the Davis Cup he felt big happiness." On what meant to him to win the Davis Cup, Orsanic added: "Winning it was a big achievement.
We had a great team who trusted me. That was always my dream. Winning the Cup is the result of all this." Why did Argentina win that Davis Cup? "We won it because we had the best team ever. I am convinced that at a team level we made up the best Argentina.
That's not a guarantee to win but everyone supported it. The player who was on the court knew that the rest of the team was behind him, which plays a big role in key moments." What was the key to his job? "I trusted what I thought.
I was convinced of what we could get without caring about the sports result or the people outside. I wanted the players and team to be comfortable.
