Default which atp pro has the worst slice bh (diff. categories)

In terms of

1) aesthetics
2) lack of fluidity/smoothness/efficiency
3) crappy/awkward/broken technique

This is for.current pros but a historical example would be McEnroe which was smooth, but suspect technique (as in youwouldnt teach it to a newbie) and it was def. not aesthetically pleasing

Does it really matter? It's obviously some player ranked well out of the top 100.

You could've made it more interesting by limiting it to the top 15 atp players or something, but now you'll end up getting a list of guys that play in challengers.

I'm not asking for a actual measured answer I'm asking for peoples opinions kan. Of course it doesnt "matter"if you want to get into existentialism vs nihilism. Does peoples health matter? No everyone dies anyway. Should we care about racquets? no we won't turn pro anyway. You ever hear of the term "for the sake of discussion"?i'm just asking for an opinion. why are people so damn anal retentive on these message boards I have no idea.

Obviously finding the definitive "worst by" is impossible, any monkey with half a brain can figure that out. Without measuring incoming ball speed, rpm, depth, or timing with a micrometer a stopwatch. relax and answer the damn question. Trolls can go die and have their whole family gutted. Utterly useless

I'd say Wawrinka's slice is pretty disappointing from someone with a great 1hbh. Kinda calls into question the supposed link between the two. He and Roger should trade some secrets.

Davydenko.....he never sliced a ball and when he does it does not go over the net.
