Poor Cash & Stich got no votes!?!?!?
Rafter's net play was similar to Cash but with more aggression and with his striped sunblock on his upper cheek bones, Rafter was more commando-like, giving viewers an impression of superb net play. So I am surprised that Cash did not receive any votes yet. Cash demolished Lendl in the finals of Wimbledon 87 with a lot of deep angled volleys and good net coverage.
Stich's serve has a crispy sound and was pretty fast, sometimes even faster than Becker, especially in the finals of Wimbledon 91. Before Sampras peaked, Stich had the biggest 2nd serve. Stich's 2nd serve was so big in the finals of Wimbledon 91, that Becker was cursing and swearing, really could not do anything, just sulking away and throwing tantrum, getting aced on Stich's 2nd serves. Then Stich would follow his big serves to the net and just volley perfectly with crispy volleys...I don't know how come his serve and volleys have a different crispy sound as compared to other players in his era. Is it due to his string tension or is it due to his quick compact service motion with super-accelerated wrist action that causes the crispy sound?
