Who was a better volleyer and a better grass court player Henman or Rafter?
Tags:
Henman. Rafter never played Sampras at Wimbledon before the final, that's why he reached two finals and Henman didn't. In 2001 both men were beaten by Goran but Henman was a lot closer to the win (Rafter never actually led in that final) and maybe would have won if it wasn't for the rain coming at 2-1 in the fourth set. Another thing is that Henman's record at Queens is a lot better - Rafter has never played even a final there or in Halle. And, finally, I remember these two playing against each other at Wimbledon when Tim was a rising star and Rafter was at or close to his peak and still the Brit won pretty comfortably...
Rafter was not a natural grass courter in my opinion, he used that kick serve too much. He is one of the greats on hard courts though.
