I would like to renew my membership for this iteration. I will initially try all styles, but with a view towards S&V and net rushing. If it turns I become more of an all-around style (but with a very specific eye to net rushing) I hope I will still be accepted in the Edberg club.

Like Villa said Raonic would be the best pick for S&V, but Dolgo can play it as well, and Gulbis would want to play it to have a quick match.

But tbh I don't think you'll be playing S&V ;)

I don't think the surface will have a major influence on gameplay, so yes, it might be just as effective as on grass and hardcourt.

We'll keep a close eye on it ;)

Oops :oops:
He is back, isn't he? And I've never played him unfortunately, due to the console difference. But since his 360 is broken he really should get a ps3 now :D

As a matter of fact, also for the sake of finding opponents, I'll split the memberlist in a 360- and a ps3-section.

Does S&HV count too? Since it's almost impossible to volley the ball before the return bounces, 9 out of 10 times I try to play service halfvolley as much as I can. I do think it's a bit weird that if I decide to stay back after my serve the return always comes deep and every time I follow my serve to the net the return most of the times is very short. The doesn't happen in real life that often.

It will be different playing human opponents. And S&HV is very common when playing S&V, especially if you're a bit slow towards the net. S&V is all about coming to the net directly after serving. That sets you up for a volley, but occasionally it can indeed be a halfvolley.

Will you be playing on the 360- or ps3-tour?

I will be playing on the PS3 tour, already signed up for the warmup event. I can't wait for it to start, never played on the Tour before so I am very excited!
