Jesus. How high Roger has set the bar is evidenced by this lame thread. Forget the 5 Wimbledon titles. Have one bad match where his volley sucks and all of a sudden he cant volley? Please. He is one of the best volleyers in the current era, if not the best.
Those who say Federer isn't a great volleyer don't know what they're talking about. He's among the best, if not the best, in the game today. He'd be even more consistent if they hadn't *******ized Wimbledon and made it slower.
But I don't know how you can look at his performance against Monfils and say it was a poor day at the net. 49 / 64 at net, a 77% success rate. That's freaking phenomenal considering how often he came in. Coming in 64 times -- in today's game, against a speedy guy like Monfils with some power on his shots, on clay -- even 60% would be a great success rate.
