Watching Tanners serve, it makes me wonder if Invanisevic copied it? Very similar motion. Both had two of the greatest serves the sport has ever seen. Yes, Roddick hits it with more pace (Racket technology?), but if I could choose one serve to have from any player, it would probably be Invanisevic. Sampras would be up there as well, simply due to the consistency and the pace / placement of the second serve.
Quickest serve motion I have seen, you barely see the toss.
Good upper body coil, that's where the power comes from.. other than that, he is probably a strong dude anyway.
His toss is pretty low, I am wondering how his kick serve is.

I'd take Tanner's serve over anything I've ever seen since.
