exactly what i thought. he missed a gimme shot. unbelievable

[blande...@hotmail.com]

In the stupidest way imaginable. That shot is a bastardization and
abomination and should only be used by those with no true volley
skills. I cannot forgive that shot selection.

He's generally duffing the big points.

he should have let the ball bounce

[guyan...@yahoo.com]

matter of confidence or the lack of it

[blande...@hotmail.com]

What do you mean let it bounce?! Are you retarded or a just a junior
Western gripper?

[blande...@hotmail.com]

He is getting it handed to him and can't come up with the great shots
with enough frequency. But it is that shot selection on that shot
that I am more disappointed about.

not to hit a swing volley but let it bounce then hit it. my english is
not good and there is no need to insult me.

I haven't seen it (off tape) in a long time, but in the 81 Wimbledon,
didn't Borg have chances to close sets and breaks, and not put them
away as well? I remember Borg saying he should have been up when he
was actually down.

The ball was easily set up to punch volley for a putaway. Fed was on
the approach around the service line. Maybe you saw a different
point. This is rst. You are allowed to insult people here.

Just another way of duffing. Bad choices, weak execution on 80mph
second serves, glaring at the lines, it's all one.

[pedr...@snip.net]

I don't think that was an easy volley. The spin had something to do
with the miss, and it would have complicated a volley. On the other
hand, it would have complicated a groundstroke that far forward.

Not to me, it isn't. Those others are forcing or choking errors. He
shouldn't even have the swinger in his arsenal or in his head.

I thought he should have played it as a *backhand* volley.
