A style of his own...

At first glance you would expect Ish to use massive ground strokes to pound the opposition into dust - let's face it, he has the upper body development for it. It comes as a bit of a shock that he still hits almost all his shots with exaggerated slice and generates enormous amounts of backspin. It works sometimes, but I can't help thinking that he's wasting a potential advantage.

It saddened me to see that on a beautiful summer evening, at a club less than three miles from Wimbledon, only two of six courts were in use and one of those was finished by 8.00pm
