Hello friends,
Random thought I had the other day while watching some old matches…
Do you think tennis players today are actually better overall than they were 10–15 years ago?
The game definitely feels faster and way more physical now. Rallies are intense, players move insanely well, and the baseline level is crazy high.
But at the same time, I’m not sure about variety. I feel like older generations had more different styles: slice, net play, all-court tennis; whereas now it’s more baseline-heavy.
Curious to hear your opinions on this. Has tennis really improved, or just evolved in a different direction?
