    Love these players!

    Hi Phil

    I posted the same find some time ago.



    It's a great clip. I think the best out there in terms of clarity. We get a superb look at Rosewall's backhand.

    In your absence, me and the regulars have been trawling the internet, discussing theories, and generally pulling the game to bits. It's great to have you back. I remember you were a great ferret for finding information.

    I discovered a great Frank Sedgman clip and put it somewhere in one of my threads. Sedgman was an awesome volleyer. As a good if not better than all who went before and after him.

      Sorry friend, I have been away for some time: not only a double post, but I also misspelt your name...

      BTW: I ran the clips on my pc, filmed them on my iPhone using Ubersense, and can now look at them frame for frame. Very interesting

        It's a splendid video.

        Great strokes are timeless.

        Jump into the future by knowing, understanding and respecting the past.

        I should of been born in a different era.

          It's always easier to win in the past. How about the future era of serve/volley domination? Not so easy.

            Yes, I was fortunate enough as a child to watch Pancho Gonzales training with Pancho Segura. There was something magical about that era...
