[QUOTE="Limp Lizard, post: 2751102, member: 18"] Serve and volley was the thing in men's tennis even when I started learning the game in the 60's. That was the thing about women's tennis: a lot longer backcourt rallys. Don't know if that still pertains. Plus until Chrissy Evert, a two-handed backhand was rare among the top tier of players. That was seen as an amateur shot. Not now, though. And yeah, returning those serves takes big-time reflexes. Plus I imagine the top players can read a serve like a pro baseball player reads a pitcher and takes a little guess. [/QUOTE]
