Venus Williams' Game Style
Server
High
Venus Williams can be regarded as a Server. When compared with her rivals, this is with the Serve that she takes her biggest edge making on average 40% more points than them with this shot. When her first Serve is in 31% of the time it is unreturned.
Puncher
Medium
From the back of the court, Venus Williams' game style is between a Tempo player and a Puncher. She takes on the ball on rise close to the baseline like a Tempo player but she is more aggressive with her forehand than her backhand like a Puncher. However, she is slightly dominated by her rivals with her forehand & backhand and has to make the difference with her Serve or at the net.
