serenas problem on serve?
are you kidding me? she is 33 years old, 5"9 and can serve 125 mph. serenas serve is technically the best in womans tennis history, every bit as good as federers or sampras serve. she can blast it, kick it and slice it with great accuracy.
she might not look elegant but her serve is technically perfect and one of the best in history in all of tennis.
also strength is very important. the kinetic chain does not "effortlessly" transfer energy. there is no passive arm pull, every stage of the chain is an active muscle contraction. they are pre stretched by the prior links but they are are actively contracted.
no serious sport scientist would doubt the role of maximum strength.
the interrelation of maximum strength and explosiveness is well researched http://elitetrack.com/article_files/stone_hartman.pdf and it is well established that strength is the main factor in performance differences between men and women.
still technique is of tremendous importance and good technique beats strength plus bad technique every time but at the top level power output does matter.
