tennis viewed from the angle that is broadcast on most TV channels is very different from being court-side. you lose a lot of perspective and basically have very little idea of what kind of shot the players are hitting from that angle and how they are moving.
to see what i mean, check out these warm-up/practice points.

They look far more intense, complicated and have a lot more subtleties that most matches shown on TV because the angle is more realistic. |
Great vid(s) Relinquis. Roddick has awesome technique. Thanks.

I would rather say it that strategies matter because good players use strategies. They use strategies as a guide to producing a competitive edge from some existing condition or situation.
