Henman was an inconsistent player but on grass he was a difficult opponent for anyone. He used to lose his serve too often which cost him a lot in his career. One thing Henman did do really well was the overhead volley, not seen too many do it better, unfortunately there were other weaknesses to his game. However in 2001 he did play ever so well and really had a great chance to win Wimbledon, he was probably the best player in the tournament that year and was really unlucky in the semi final, Ivanesevic was on the ropes and was saved by the rain. I think after that semi final defeat his chance for a grand slam win was realistically gone as the serve and volley style of tennis become a lost art. But whatever your view of Henmam, he did some produce exciting tennis on grass
@raynerstuelgalid2 жыл бұрын
The serve and volley style of tennis did not become a lost art. It was a pragmatic response by players adjusting to the heavier (and deeper) ground strokes brought about by modern innovations in racquet and string technologies. (The forehand mechanics also had to change to take advantage of these.) Even serve and volley tennis phased out of Wimbledon because of changes to the grass courts there.

Henman has stated himself that he was lucky to be 2-1 ahead of Goran before the rain delay as some fortune went his way and he also said that in the end, Goran deserved the win...but he was far more than a difficult player on grass, he was an awesome server and volleyer with a big serve hence the double faults here and there. He basically got to 4 w'don finals (I know semis as he, unfortunately, met all the winners of the tourns in those matches and he would have easily beat some of the other opponents who made it to the finals on the other side of the draw.

The story of tim henman, was so fascinating, spent all his life training to win Wimbledon, just when he got good enough to start winning them, Wimbledon organizers stab him in back by making courts slower then clay lol,why they could not wait a few years, i will never know.

The 💯 rye grass wasn't slower. The speed was the same as the previous rye/ fescue mix but it was more resilient and the bounce was higher and more consistent. Of course after Wimbledon made the balls slower and heavier and coupled with hot weather it played much like a hard court with a higher bounce , but mostly due to the heavier balls not the court itself

After beating Sampras, I can't believe Roger lost that one. Henman killing himself for the crowd one guesses.

Would this Tim Henman beat the same 18 year old Andy Murray who beat a 31 year old Tim Henman 🤔

I do think Tim would have won Wimbledon but of course he fell foul of Sampras twice in the semis and then the rain interrupted semi vs Ivanisevic in which he was 2 pts from victory. Somewhat unlucky and somewhat not strong enough mentally, but still one of the best tennis players we've ever had in the UK.

3:07:54 what a volley at 5-2 down! If he misses that, it's bye-bye to the 4th set for Tim....

Destiny. Goran was not guaranteed the win but he was absolutely brilliant when it really mattered

At that point, I think only the ones who followed tennis very close know who Federer was, not like today that almost everyone knows who he is

Well he didn't even make it past a first slam quarter final until 2 years after this, a few weeks short of turning 22.
