KevinProNOW I feel bad for Aaron in regards to the loss he endured at the US Open 1991 against Jimmy Connors. In hindsight, Aaron should have played the match differently. Not just sit on the baseline but perhaps wait for the short ball, attack it and try to take the net position. Don't let Connors dictate. But we can't change the match now. Aaron has to live with that loss and Connors can keep gloating which he often does.
Alan Chong It's interesting to see Krickstein play. Along with Jimmy Arias, he was one of the original "prototypes" at the Bollitieri school. I always think his game was a kind of early version of the way we'd see the likes of Agassi play slightly later.
@Alan Chong He is not late swinging forward, he initiates the whole motion according to the length of his (very compact) backswing. Also, the more one waits (within the acceptable time frame), the greater acceleration of the swing is needed, and both of those things go automatically together with more compact swings.Technically, even if not pretty, his forehand does make perfect sense. Second serve, per definition, shouldn't ever be hit "flatter".
