Playing style

edit

Cressy is a big server who plays a predominantly serve-and-volley style in his service games.[58] His second serve is nearly as fast as, and sometimes faster than, his first serve. He has an aggressive return of serve. He has a good forehand and backhand but is most dangerous when he is chipping-and-charging and volleying.[59]
