Have to agree. She's a beautiful volleyer, but I always found the rest of her game so loopy and, well, weak. And I hate the way she jumps into her forehand.

I should have added earlier, while not necessarily "current," cleanest strokes: DAVENPORT! The sound of the ball coming off her racquet was heavenly. And the helicopter forehand!

There still is no one that compares on the tour with her level of groundstrokes. I can still recognize her ballstriking without seeing the tv screen. Lindsay's strokes were just so natural, second nature. (And now I'm getting all weepy...I miss her!)

I do enjoy CSN and Amelie's backhands when they come over the ball. I also love Vaidisova's and Azarenka's forehands when they're in their zones.

And Gasquet's backhand is a slice of heaven.
