although I am not a fan of his particular school of tennis thought, I respect his passion and enthusiasm, just another proof that tennis love is for life

he's got access to a huge talent pool, produces some great champions and I like him, great character.

I think he ruins more than produces, tbh. I look forward to MacEnroe's academy to start bearing some fruit.

His players are in love with the baseline.

I don't think you can attribute a love of the baseline to Bolliterri.

He's great at at getting players to play to their strengths and maximising their potential, whether it be a baseliner like Courier or a serve volleyer like Becker.

His players are a bit soulless for me, all routine and pattern.

Yes for you as well, as routines and patterns is how tennis is taught for everyone, even Nole.

just that some are able to outgrow those patterns thanks to their IQ
