He also had a bigger serve than Edberg for example so Sampras would have easier volleys.
Not necessarily, as the big serve meant that he often had to take the 1st volley near or even behind the service line. Agassi used to send those serves back low & hard but Pete was able to handle those volleys with aplomb, sometimes even for an outright winner. And I remember Edberg acknowledging in a recent interview that with a bigger serve his job would've been considerably more difficult, or something to that effect (he was exaggerating a bit for sure, but his overall point was clear).
