re: Tennis Needs to Change the Rules .. Like Golf Has

I guess you yearn for the days when it was all serve and volley, rallies that lasted a max of three shots, and guys who ranked high on the tour without having reliable ground strokes. Guess what? That shite fricking sucked, and that's not tennis.

I didn't say I wanted to go back to three shots and out tennis.

But what is happening today is at the other swing of the pendulum. And it ain't good tennis either.

If they reigned in the stringing, there would be a better chance of having a sport where players with both attacking/volleying styles and baseline styles would be rewarded and it would also allow for matches between players with contrasting styles, which historically have been the majority of the all-time greatest matches played.
