Control

Consistency, steadiness of play. Many more points are won eventually because one player makes an error than are won by hitting a shot that’s unreturnable. So a control player – one who makes less errors than his opponent even though the opponent makes more eye-catching brilliant shots – is a good bet to come out on top. This is particularly true at club-level tennis, but it’s often particularly true at the highest levels of play as well.
