Nobody has even really answered my earlier question. Apart from the Williams who are these great power players or super hard hitters today that are ushering in this scary power era of tennis. Is anyone even going to try and argue Safin, Kuznetsova, Dementieva, Ivanovic, Jankovic, busted shouldered Maria are these amazing super power hitters who bring power to a new level compared to Graf, Seles, Davenport, Pierce, old Maria, Capriati, Henin, Lucic, early 2000s Dokic, and a bunch of others, LOL! The field today sucks, even the amazing power quota argument doesnt fly. There was even MUCH more power in the game 5, 10, 15, and 20 years ago than there is today. The last time there were less impressive power hitters in the womens game was at the latest back when there were last wood racquets. Well I wonder why then.
The only thing todays girls do well is hit hard, I agree with that, but they dont even do that particularly well. Dokic is about half the player she was when she was in the top 10 in the early 2000s when the Williams, Davenport, Capriati, and Henin at their peaks were on top, and she still was slugging it out and holding her own vs World #1 Safina in Australia. In her early 2000s form she would probably have powered Safina right off the court and be winning slams today, where at the time of her peak tennis she was a marginal top tenner for a bit.
