Video Archive - Full downloadable matches

This will be the page that contains all of the downloadable videos, all full matches (not clips). It's just archived as 2007 to separate it from the other posts. These are Megaupload links that are split using .rar files, so a program like WinRAR is needed to extract them.

Sorry for making the page not very organised but for the moment I don't really want to separate it into other pages because it's not the central focus of the blog.

Del Potro is starting to develop a more complete game, making subtle changes in his game but without losing sight of what makes him so difficult to play against. These days it’s becoming increasingly difficult to break down Del Potro’s game. It’s been a while since Del Potro has been made to look clumsy, discounting the Wimbledon loss to Hewitt which looked more like a surface-specific loss in hindsight. He isn’t only staying consistent, he’s improving and becoming a much better big match player.

Newport SF 2009 - Sam Querrey vs Fabrice Santoro



Part 1: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ZGKHOCXP
Part 2: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QLB64IJY

Querrey has a nice and relaxed smooth service action, and it’s very efficient too. It doesn’t look like anything spectacular; it’s more of an upright motion than most of the good servers. He doesn’t throw his body weight into the shot as much but the simplicity of it allows him to hit his spots well (or at least he did in this match).

Hamburg Final 2009 - Nikolay Davydenko vs Paul-Henri Mathieu

Part 3: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YGA3DMN6

Because of his movement, it’s like Davydenko catches each ball at the top of the bounce, hitting it in the most favourable of positions even when being stretched out wide. But I also like how well he sets up for his strokes, how it seems like by the time he’s making contact with the ball, his feet are firmly planted in the ground, not still recovering from the sprint.

Los Angeles SF 2009 - Tommy Haas vs Sam Querrey



Part 1: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IAX4OJNU
Part 2: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MVAJVVS3

Querrey played a great match in the semi-finals against Haas, showing some of the most impressive retrieving abilities that I'd seen from him. He wasn't only covering his ground well and getting where he needed to, but he actually seemed speedy, a characteristic that isn't usually associated with him.

Los Angeles Final 2009 - Sam Querrey vs Carsten Ball



Part 1: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=T5JZ81TE
Part 2: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=CRPO2QBV

The pressure was on Querrey to back up that performance against Haas, but more importantly to finally win one of those finals he was strongly favoured to win. It has been a great week for Ball, coming into this event ranked in the 200s, and having never even won a single ATP main draw match prior to this week.

Ball is as much of an outright aggressive player as you’ll see. He doesn’t hit the ball completely flat but generates massive amounts of power, I guess because of his size.

Gstaad SF 2009 - Thomaz Bellucci vs Igor Andreev



Part 1: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5EYTXBU3
Part 2: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=O698ABTX

The way Bellucci hits his shots reminds me of a practice session. It's something to do with how he never seems to chase the ball or move forward to hit it on the rise, how it often seems to be within his reach instead. It's unbelievable how often he can still manage to keep the two hands on the racquet stretching out to his backhand side.

Gstaad Final 2009 - Andreas Beck vs Thomaz Bellucci



Part 1: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=7Q9G89JP
Part 2: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DX8TY2KR

It was a different match to the semi-final match against Andreev, with Bellucci not finding himself being pushed behind the baseline as much and therefore having more opportunities to attack and hit those faster-paced groundstrokes. He really has a nicely balanced game. It looks high percentage and aggressive at the same time.
