I think Oikos has enough tools (no offense to Bweh) to overcome the 1HBH detriment. That said, he's not going to win any slams with how bad his forehand was against Djokovic last night. He has a big serve and I would rate his forehand as certainly top 5 on tour. He's an excellent mover and usually very good at the net (terrible at the net last night though). The other big thing he needs to work on though is the return of serve, he doesn't get enough balls back in play and when he does, it's often a sitter for an easy winner.
