kiyoshi saito 1992 all japan final

this match gets more interesting as it goes on. For those who have only experienced 11 up you need to follow how with 5 serves you can see how people can be a long way back but with a good round of serving end up in the lead. Both players are masters at this with saito in particular having an endless variety of topspin for his third ball. As a lefthander his serve return is very often a very aggresive angle wide of righties fh
