Boris Becker vs Richard Krajicek (1996 TMC SF Highlights)

[@vinod1222]

Two guys who definitely had the potential to achieve more.

[@hw343434]

Becker still achieved a LOT though with 6 Majors and #1 in the world. Krajicek is the one who never achieved much

@@hw343434 1 x Wimbledon. And 3 Masters series (1x Key Biscayne and 2x Stuttgart). Highest position #4. Could have been better if he wasn't so prone to injury.

@@hw343434 Krajicek spent a lot of time off the court injured because of his knees. One of the greatest serves of all time, one of the few players who had h2h advantage over Sampras and one of the few in history to be able to hit the serve at the peak of the toss.

​@@wouternieminen844@wouternieminen844 he was not just a big server. he had fantastic returns from both wings and his forehand was especially powerful. he could return, pass and rally on that side superbly at his best. plus he was extremely quick, unfortunately injuries derailed his career

Против такого уровня тенниса ни один современный Надаль не выстоит!!!! Это "Моцарты" игры!

People say they miss this tennis. What is there to miss? No rallies at all. Volleys looks good in occasion. Not like this. Too boring

[@lespepitesdutennis4892]

90s period was a time with different styles because the surfaces had really differents characteristics. A lot of rallies on clay and hard court and short rallies on grass and indoor. It was really different period, without speaking about rackets, strings... That being said, I can understand that people who like long rallies doesn't appreciate that kind of fast indoor tennis.

[@chadgable984]

long rallies ar boooooring. Tennis players now dont even know how to volley

[@Vipa567]

I miss when there were multiple legit ways to win a tennis, now everyone has to play the same style if they want to win.

[@oot007]

In the years that I played tennis for my school, comp tennis and at university tournaments I have never come across anyone who could play like Becker and Krajicek because nobody was good enough to serve with that power and have the athleticism to serve volley. However I have played against tons of defensive baseline robots like Novak as that is a basic style of tennis. Novak is extremely fit and makes few unforced errors but his style of play is boring and very common.

This is called attacking tennis. Pushers are boring and uncreative.
