I see the writer's point - this definitely makes men's tennis more interesting to watch for sure. But I don't know that I'd really call Nadal a 'defensive' player - he really seemed to be dictating most of the shots in the Wimbledon final...
Quoted: Remember the early 2000s when men's tennis became almost unwatchable—booming serves, points that ended before you blinked, rackets blasting serves 130 miles an hour? With Rafael Nadal dethroning 5-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer, that no longer applies. Defense now reigns supreme.

I agree. Defense is not the right word.
