Coach Rick Macci thinks Sebastian Korda is “the most talented American male tennis player” as he sees a bit of Roger Federer in the game of the 22-year-old. Korda, who reached the Australian Open quarterfinal earlier this year, is currently the fourth highest-ranked American man as Taylor Fritz, Frances Tiafoe and Tommy Paul are all ranked ahead of the 22-year-old.
But Macci – who was famously Serena and Venus Williams‘ childhood coach – thinks it is Korda who has the most talent among the American man. “If there is one guy who I think can be better than all the Americans, it’s Korda.
I think Korda is the best of all of them. Now he’s kind of been in the rear view mirror because he’s been once again hurt. But I could see him winning multiple Slams. He kind of plays a little bit like Federer with a two-handed backhand.
His serve’s only going to get better, his mind will get even stronger. He can win Wimbledon, he can do damage. He might be the most talented of all the Americans,” Macci told Tennis-Infinity.
