    The serve is not a throwing motion

    There's definitely similarities between throw and serve. I can throw quite accurately and with pace. It definitely helps my serve technique and accuracy. One of the biggest similarities for me is the release of the ball when throwing compared to the contact of the racket (extended arm) when...

    Federer trying to play professional tennis again is ridiculous, the more I think about it

    Yeah. It tires me more than side to side baselining for some reason.

    Rafa's yacht is ridiculous o_O

    Some will kill people and think they're doing it for God. Money can really corrupt people.

    Federer trying to play professional tennis again is ridiculous, the more I think about it

    Agreed. And his ties with Gates is also quite curious.

    Connors had stronger competitors than Federer will when/if he comes back.

    I meant a way to do it cost effectively, ala vaccines?

    Bjorn Borg was the ultimate pusher! Prove me wrong.

    Prime Mac would beat anyone.

    The purest double handed backhand is....

    How does Murray rank? I know Kyrgios is definitely not ideal although interesting, but it has inspired mine on short takebacks...Agassi on longer takebacks.

    So the rest of his game must suck quite a bit.

    Good players can play competitively with any racquet

    Where I play, the best female shotmaker I know almost hits the ball as well as the best male player when they do rally drills. But as soon as its a match her level drops significantly and she pushes more. Also mentally much weaker. I have seen this many times, in matches females go into push...

    Steffi had what Serena & Nole lacked

    Can you please stop using the offensive language.

    Steffi had what Serena & Nole lacked

    Matchups count yeah. Sharapova had extreme grips which would not work that well against a slice than Seles could have dealt with. Saying that, on slower courts especially, I feel Sharapova would give Graf a better battle than what she did against Serena. The gap between Graf and Sharapova is...

    Naomi Osaka eyes tennis return 'soon' after feeling 'itch' to play again

    I read and understood what you said and fully disagree. Did YOU read what I said? I compared non-equals as well as equals and I explained why marketability has nothing to do with what we should perceive as greatness. The companies they involved themselves with (which results in revenues) do...

    Naomi Osaka eyes tennis return 'soon' after feeling 'itch' to play again

    Novak isn't inferior to Roger due to marketability, but rather due to lack of quality opponents faced compared to Roger in various era's. This may change though. Yes, Roger will probably always be more likeable and more marketable, but that too won't be the reasons why he can be seen as greater...

    Naomi Osaka eyes tennis return 'soon' after feeling 'itch' to play again

    Kubrick was so good with Space Oddesy that it does generate doubt as to what's real and what isn't, especially for that time. Perhaps a big budget movie set is still more practical than actually having gone to the moon in a vacuum of space? Did he mock and refer to it in The Shining with the...

    Naomi Osaka eyes tennis return 'soon' after feeling 'itch' to play again

    If that's true, then you ARE really 14 years old as many might have suspected. Lol at your posts thinking marketability = greatness. Let me guess: to you looks = greatness?

    They too look as if they could be fake. 3d models. The lighting seems off. Could be wrong.

    Steffi had what Serena & Nole lacked

    Naw. It's obvious that Graf dodged a bullet. Seles was definitely had a bright future and circumstances took that away. One has to be blind to not see that.

    Steffi had what Serena & Nole lacked

    Yes the WTA was better. I agree. Doesn't make Graf superior to Serena though. Serena proved more over a longer period that she's the real queen against more than one generation. She has the better serve and Steffi's slice backand is a weakness in modern tennis. Probably why ASV did well against...

    Steffi had what Serena & Nole lacked

    We are talking here primes. I agree that Steffi would beat Sharapova most of the time. No way Sharapova is better than her. But we still need to consider what Sharapova achieved and look at her game. Older, cleverer Serena would wipe the floor with ASV on every surface outside clay. Steffi...

    Steffi had what Serena & Nole lacked

    Naw. Even Sharapova with her annoying grunting would at times have been tough competition to Steffi. I'm sure Serena would have loved playing let's say ASV.
