But you can see that the winners at W are usually attackers?
The defensive players that I can recall that won it, in the WTA, are Evert, and perhaps Conchita. The rest of the winners have been attackers: Martina, Steffi, Serena, Venus, Petra, BJK, Court. Even the recent crop tends to go more for attack (Rybakina, Vondrousova and Krejcikova).
I agree that defense on grass is an excellent tool; Borg proved that a long time ago, when the W courts were faster. But he was pretty much the exception.
