Ashe was hard to figure as a player, he was not really fast or strong, didn’t seem all that athletic, and he did not seem super-fit. He was not one of those athletes who probably could have been great at any sport. But he was very skilled and I think Dr. Fox is right that he had great hands, maybe the best, and this can’t be taught, it is God-given. He hit the ball pretty flat, kind of slapped at it, even on the volley, but it worked, especially on the fast courts of that era, his shots really seemed to skid and stay low, making it tough to pass him at net. His movement was very good side-to-side and he had a great overhead, which was good because he was at the net a lot. Different era, when it was all about fast courts, holding serve, and breaking serve enough to win the match.
