@Pitonto Instead of trying to take modern players and hypothetically making them have the same stats as one of the earlier pros, becker, edberg, bjorg... Why not try to say this.. Would the earlier players of the open era, had they been raised and thought to play the "modern" tennis, would they be as successful? I don't think so. It's incredibly naive to think that out of the top 500 players in the world, that none of them are as good, if not better than any of the early legends..

It's not necessarily pure power which is devastating, it's the controlled fury which is frightening. I've seen Federer winding up 85 mph forehands landing in the service box and kick out wide a couple of time; I have seen him paint the lines at 95-100 mph so often; I saw Nadal making those balls kicks and drift so far out wide you'd need to have a ticket in the third row to play the ball back...
Del Potro, Gonzalez, Söderling now... big hitters and that resume their skill.

This could work well against Nadal, but he'd have to do it for 3 hours at least.

Certainly they served just as hard in the '90's as they do two decades later. Groundstrokes, though, have become a good bit harder if i'm not mistaken. Safin is my chief example, but others exist. Del Potro, as tvvideos mentioned, also pounds the ball. I cannot recall Pete Sampras hitting a 100 mph forehand, but in today's game it happens fairly often.

You really don't know much about tennis if you think players in the 90's did not hit the ball hard. Becker, Sampras, Agassi, Courier, Rios, Kafelnikov and many others could crush the ball. More importantly, tennis is not about who can hit the ball the hardest, otherwise Gonzo and Roddick would have a lot of grand slams.
