. Unhappy with this, the A.T.P. and W.T.A., the organizations that run the men’s and women’s tours, respectively, declared that if Russians and Belarusians couldn’t play, and thus earn ranking points, then no one else could earn ranking points, either. In other words, no one’s worldwide ranking will be affected one way or another by what happens at Wimbledon.
Wimbledon did, however, make a subtle change two decades ago that both set the stage for the all-court, attacking style and, ultimately, brought it to a seeming end. In 2002, tournament officials approved a switch from a mix of ryegrass and creeping red fescue to pure ryegrass. The altered surface provided higher, less irregular bounces; the courts now play a little slower.
Like the grass, though, the players were changing, too. Those coming up were better conditioned, first-step quicker. So it came to pass at Wimbledon, in the summer of 2001, that nineteen-year-oldarrived on Centre Court. Like his predecessors, he had a fine serve, and could get to the net and stick his volleys.
But the reign of all-court attacking tennis on Centre Court did not last the decades that serve-and-volley did. If the grass was less grassy, and you could sprint, defend, and counterpunch, why not stay back behind the baseline and play it a little safer? By 2008, Federer himself was coming to the net a bit less than he had in his first runs to Wimbledon titles. That year, he was defeated in the final by, who seldom left the baseline in that match unless he was forced to.

Alcaraz is not Jewish. Does the NY think he is?
He’s so fun to watch. None of the sulking and chest-thumping of Djokovic.
