Playing style
Mannarino is a defensive baseliner and counterpuncher. He is a master at redirecting pace and putting his opponents in uncomfortable positions. He often makes use of his lefthanders' serve to create angles and run his opponents from side to side. His other main strengths are his speed around the court and his consistency from the baseline, but he also actively goes for winners and comes to the net when he sees a chance. Apart from his serve, he doesn't possess a dominant weapon, but combines his skills to wear down and outsmart his opponents.
