 Yes

I'm curious what has caused the improvement. He always seemed to me to be playing less aggressively most of the last year on the odd occasions I saw him play. While that could obviously just have been caused by a lack of confidence and ability to keep the ball in otherwise it almost seems to me that he is more likely to keep the ball in when a little more attack minded - he has a kind of style/technique that seems more suited to playing that way. In some of the loses I watched it seemed that a lot of the shots he missed were just rally shots or fairly basic defensive shots when out of position.

Basically it seems to me that he is not that much more likely to end the point with a miss when playing aggressive shots than when just playing conservative rally shots so just playing more aggressive shots seems an obvious strategy. Does it look that way to anyone else too?
