I remember to see that match and 1 was so desapointed when 1 she was leading with a break in the 3rd set and lost but a great match.. Do you have their 1/2 final match at the championships 2005?
Davenport has better serve and volley, hit deeper but not stronger than Pierce, Pierce has better footwork and hard hitting... without losing the elegance, a lot of class!!
I would take issue with what you said about footwork. Pierce had better foot speed which is different than foot work, of which Davenport's was superior. Just compare the small, shutter-steps between them as they approach the ball.
If you wanna dissect both ladies game, Davenport hit more with Heavy topspin while Pierce hit more hard and flat. Pierce have a better footwork and will try to chase down balls while Davenport will not even try to chase or hit balls if not within her striking reach. Davenport has a better serve but not by much, and Lindsay has a great hands at the net.
