Tennis Wise

10. In order to sharpen your overhead skills and footwork make sure to turn and cross-over on your way back and then load up on your dominant leg and follow through.

9. If you want to learn something you have go to exaggerate it. In order to make that flat forehand into a topspin forehand close the racquet face toward the ground at a 45' degree angle and brush up on the ball from low to high.

4. There are two major ways of improving your game: tennis tips and lots of repetition. A lot of practice grooves your strokes and establishes a solid foundation from where you can move forward.

3. Patience with an eye for the attack is the way to bring the moonballer down to earth.

2. When in doubt use and/or teach the semi-western grip for a forehand. Most pros use this grip today.

1. A solid backhand approach shot is a backhanded slice down the line with a carioca step.
