I'd think taller players would tend to play from the baseline and hit their serves and volley then reach the net often as they would have a problem bending (the closer to the net the harder) and would be play suckers for a drop shot from a shorter player. Shorter players can be faster and nimble playing from the net as their reach from baseline would be limited.
The question is NOT how a taller player could or would play or that it's playing matters etc etc. The question is a player that has a height advantage (this is for GRANTED), how would the player play to gain advantage over the other. Now, I'd prefer a more analytical/mathematical answer as well as someone who has played considerable tennis to answer. I dont want to know - depends on player etc etc.answers. Analyze it mathematically (stretch of reach vs knee bending, skeletal movements closer to net, reach and hitting angles of taller players closer to net vs baseline, angle of twist etc). So put some math into it. Please dont answer dry dumb sorta way - because everybody knows those answers
