I, a woman, in case anyone here doesn't know that, have always like women's tennis somewhat (if not always) more than men's for the same reason that I like under 6 foot basketball at Venice Beach better than pro dunkathon games.....at best, more finesse, more tactics, just...more thought involved.
Haven't followed sports lately, but used to follow fairly closely.
More tactics in women's game, false.
The men's game requires a lot of tactics, since it takes a lot of them to break one guy's serve, & also a little of finesse(for dropshots & volleys, which actually are more in men's game than in women's game)
Btw is much more competitive men's game than women's game, the only exciting matches of women's tour is from Quarterfinals to the Final, not before, while at men's tour in every match there's the possibility of an upset.
PS.- I really hope Lindsay may be able to come back to Wimbledon next year.
