Clear videos of Solomon?
Wondering if there are any relatively clear videos of Harold Solomon or Eddie Dibbs out there?

Harold suffered thru back problems most of his career.
His game did not depend on a big serve. OTOH, a weak well placed serve allowed him to START his kind of game....running you around, playing the game of attrition, and driving you into making dumb mistakes. He was very good at breaking serve, not so great at holding serve. He was 5'7" and maybe 145 lbs. No big serve in his itinerary. He maxed out his physical limitations and did quite well for a little guy. |
