Novak is just unbelievable. He is like a tennis machine. But Rafa should win a major title this year and I believe it will be at the French Open. That is his strength.

after playing tennis nung sunday derecho na kami sa house ng friend and ka-tennis club namin na may big a$$ hd tv and watched the showdown for almost 6 hours!

nalasing na ko at nahimasmasan na hindi pa din tapos iyong laban!

i can just imagine how it's like to play continuously for almost half-a-day. malamang kapag ganun gawin namin susugurin na kami ng mga respective partners namin at hihilain pauwi!

Azarenka stuns Maria. The match is over in 2 sets. Unbelievable.

With Sharapova,- I am not surprised.... I perceive her as a very inconsistent player ....

Djokovic wins in another epic battle, longest grand slam final in open era, almost 6 hrs..

Both of them are playing the baseline strategy,- and so with the long playing time...

In the past,- players prefer to approach the net for the volley....

Yep. The serve and volley game has given way to players with big service games, or those with strong baseline strokes.

Actually, the players who adopted s&v games were really good with the likes of Stefan Edberg and Boris Becker, Pat Rafter.

Andre Agassi I think, early on preferred to run his opponents ragged from the baseline since he can hit the ball on the rise and aim his returns with force and accuracy. I saw him come to the net only in certain tournaments like Wimbeldon and the Australian Open.

Pete Sampras the best dyan!

AA is good at the baseline because of the accuracy of his returns. Weakness ng S&V is while coming to the net, the ball is returned in the middle/front of them and very near. La na sila control but just to return it. Yari na sila sa susunod na tira ni AA.

Sa clay court bumabagal kasi bola kaya dun pinakahirap manalo mga s&v guys.
