Understanding Tennis

everyone gets ready before the serve is hit

why not?

one of the ways to think about rotating -is to bring the hip through

one of the ways to preset the loose wrist is to put the racquet face to the sky on your gathering

raise up and square up

get both the back knee and racquet under the incoming flight path

compact start–pull across the chest

develop a ritual of  return preparation that is relaxed

when the point is over– no time for anger or joy—reset  your computer planning how you are going to play the next point 

the front foot needs to point toward the net to opening the front hip up

reach for the volley– play first base — go to the ball

keep the non hitting arm in– prevents opening up too soon

drop the tip of the racquet to toward the ground — to increase the swing up
