Wimbledon Interview w/ Taylor Dent

Taylor Dent lost a tough 4-set match to Lleyton Hewitt in day 7 of Wimbledon. He gave the Wimbledon website an interview, in which he mentions the technology advancements in tennis and how they have affected serve and volleyers.

Q. As the last bastion of serving and volleying, as a tennis fan, is it just sad that Wimbledon of all places for you, this was the place where you came to see serve and volley, and we're not seeing a lot of it.

TAYLOR DENT: No, we're not seeing a lot of it. I think tennis ‑‑ all sports go through waves. You see them mess around with the baseball, American baseball. All of a sudden they're hitting 10 home runs a game. I just think tennis is going to go through waves. Maybe one day they'll shrink the racquet size. They could have the conditions as slow as they want and that's going to help the serve and volleyers because now these guys, you can't have all this racquet to hit the ball. You know, something like that.
