Marcel Granollers' Game Style

Server

Medium

Marcel Granollers can also count on an effective serve to get points with. When his first serve is in, 31% of the time it is unreturned (in the average). Being so defensive from the back of the court, the Serve gives him free points here and there and are very important for him.

Puncher

Medium-low

Even though Marcel Granollers is a clay court specialist, he cannot be regarded as a Puncher at all. He makes on average two times fewer points with the forehand than his rivals. This shot is much mor used to Retrieve than to attack.

Tempo Player

Medium-low

Marcel Granollers can play in Tempo rather close to his baseline with the backhand. However, unlike the Tempo players, his ratio of points with the backhand is below average. It goes the same for the return. It is why he is much more a Counterpuncher (Retriever) than a Tempo player.

Offensive Player

Medium-high

Not having the shots from the back of the court to win points, Marcel Granollers developed an Offensive side to his game. In total, 17% of his points are won at the net (with or without a volley to play) and this result stands above average. He varies well all kind of neta approaches: serve & volley, 1-2 punch, baseline approach and chip & charge.

Retriever

Very high

Marcel Granollers is a dominant Retriever. In total, 52% of his points are won by the errors of his rivals and this result is far above the general average of the ATP players. First of all, his game plan is to wear his rivals down extending the baseline rallies, then to be creative as we will see next.
