@AustinCrawford1 It's definitely John. It's his voice and you can see him in the booth.

One of the few to land on right food after serving.

There was nothing better in tennis to watch than the serve of Boris Becker. Pure art.

Becker had much hip-rotation. There is an excellent analysis of Roddick´s serve, he also rotates much.

But Roddick lands on the left foot.

I agree with McEnroe. Becker's serve was much better in the mid and late 80's than into the 90's. Think of it this way...Becker won more majors in the 80's because his serve was at its peak. When Becker was serving great, very few could beat him.

this is the match of Agassi in the semifinal against becker wimbledon 1995, Becker won after a hard fight

I would say that Federer and Sampras have the most effective serves, taking into account that they are not super-tall.

Among the super-ace-men are Karlovic, Ivanisevic, Phillipoussis, Krajicek.

Stich and Becker had great serves, too.

Le service de Boris tout simplement unique, beau dans le geste et le résultat.
