Playing Style & Technique
Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard is one of the rare serve-and-volley players on the modern ATP tour. Their game plan is built around a big serve followed by aggressive net approaches β a style that dominated tennis for decades but is now unusual at the top level.
Their net game and volleying ability are among the best on tour. They use their serve to create short or wide replies that they can attack with a first volley, and they finish points efficiently at the net.
How their equipment supports their style: The Pure Drive 2021 gives Giovanni the control and feel needed for precise volleying. Babolat RPM Blast provides touch and response at the net while still delivering a capable serve.
