Romanian to English Other Sports / Fitness / Recreation
Primul set a fost la discretia lui Henman. Englezul, monument de calm si eficienta, s-a comportat ca un pilot automat. In incantatorul sau joc de serviciu-voleu greselile aproape ca nu si-au facut loc.

serve-and-volley game

I thought Henman had announced his retirement... maybe not quite yet then!

It's when you come into the net immediately after serving and then play volleys, instead of staying back at the baseline.

"This game is nothing new to many of our nation's top coaches and players. It is the half-court, **serve-and-volley game** played crosscourt with the alleys included amongst two players."

"Henman, using his chip and charge tactics to perfection along with his **serve and volley game**, was delighted to record only his second win in seven meetings with the big-serving Russian."
