Talk:Serve-and-volley

I guess it is not entirely true that the server and volley is less tiring as one has to quickly move upfront following a serve. If the opponent is good at lobbying then the serve and volley player would end up running bbackwards as well. 59.92.202.230 07:31, 7 January 2007 (UTC) BPCP

Intro
I added a description of the style that should make it easier for a non-tennis player to understand the article. I removed the Context tag. The article still needs to be better organized. MrVibrating 21:12, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Tilden's 'Theory'
It says here that Tilden maintained that a 'great' baseliner would 'by definition' (sic) beat a 'great' serve-and-volley player because the returns would be so good that the volleyer would be unable to volley them. But surely if the volleyer were as great a volleyer as the returner was a returner then he would be able to make the volley. The 'theory' does not stand up. Nicander (talk) 21:33, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
