No Stefan Edberg? He was always the player I looked up to when I was growing up. With his effortlessly graceful movement, monstrous kick serve, fabulous backhand and textbook volleys, he was, I would respectfully submit, the last of the great specialist serve volleyers. I always thought that Sampras (as brilliant as he was) relied more on his serve. In Federer, one can almost see the secret love child of Edberg and Sampras!

Thanks for the suggestion! Stefan Edberg has now joined the Hall of Fame, he sits alongside another two talented serve and volley players.
