yeah i know, would still be funny to see more mixed game styles, but i dont blame ppl for not approaching the net more often, it's rly understandable cause of the points u already mentioned.

With hard serves and faster returns you don't have the same time to move to the net, as it were in the older days, so you don't see serve & volley as much.
But it's made for a more exciting game I think, the way tennis has evolved :)


very true

aggressive/ serve and volley


Now as a serve and volley'er, do you hit more kick serves to give you time to get to the net? Or do you go for the big flat serve in order to try and force your opponent to hit a bad shot which you can put away easily?

Ah I gotcha. Throwing in a serve/volley is a great idea every once in a while, like when you're up 15-0 or 30-0 in the game.

Do you chip/charge much on return of serves/during points?
