I didn't watch tennis back when they used to play on carpet but apart from playing quite a few times on bad carpet, another few times I played on a great one, which was super low bounce and much faster than all indoor hard courts I know. Then one guy who has played on grass before said it's quite comparable. But I guess only considering bounce height and court speed, right? Not so much bounce consistency, as well as that your movement on grass still needs to be much more uniquely adjusted, right?
Does anybody of you play regularly on grass and carpet and can compare it to hard and clay as well?
Were those pro players, who played great on carpet, good on grass as well?
And the main thing why I'm asking all of this - why do those young players have such a hard time playing well on the surface? (obviously apart from the apparent and 100% totally true fact, that they all are useless clowns, who should be ashamed of their existence..) I guess it's mostly due to the different way you need to move, right? Or do the different kinds of bounces play a bigger role and that you maybe should adjust your own strokes to hit a little flatter as well?
